I'm required by international anthropology forum rules to ask this question. My ancestry is English, Finnish, Flemish, German, Irish, Native American, Scots Irish, Scottish, Swedish, and Welsh. A genealogist claims that I have Jewish ancestry on both sides, but I haven't found definitive proof of that. I probably have Melungeon ancestry too.

Swiss (Maternal), Norwegian(Paternal), German(Maternal), Cornish(Paternal), English(Both). The English is from very old American settlers. The Swiss ancestry is the most recent of my ancesters to immigrate to the U.S., in 1918.

Danish + little bit of Finnish (not that different to begin with) and very little bit of Spanish, but so little that it doesn't count or show up at all.

Austria- maternal grandmother.
Galizia- maternal grandfather.
Galizia/Galizien, Halychyna, Cerwona Rus. These are the descendants of the Kievan Rus who fled the Mongol Hordes, settling in the Carpathians around Mukacheve, or Munkacs, in the 13 to 14th centuries. Munkacs was Hungarian until the end of the Second World War, when the region was was taken by the Soviets and handed to Ukrainian SSR, now Ukraine.
Silesia- paternal grandmother.
Silesia is the very most Southwestern region of what is today Poland. The area had been in contention between Austria, Prussia, and Poland. It's a separate West Slavic ethnicity, though heavily mixed with Germans and Poles.
Sicily- paternal grandfather.

And as a geneologist, I'm required to answer this question every time time it's asked.  I'm a Finn, with about 60 % of Eastern Finnish and 40 % of Western Finnish ancestory. I also possibly have some Latvian/Livonian, German and Swedish ancestors from the 17th and 18th centuries. |
