What are YOUR secret origins?
 

I know most of you guys are American but since there is probably no country as multi-cultural as the USA I'd like to know your "secret origins".
Spanish, Irish, Italian, Cherokee, a mixture of everything?
I am full bred Indian (from India :wink: ), born and raised in Germany!

I'm part Surinam, part Dutch

Irish and English predominantly, born and raised in the US as a military (*cough*experiment*cough*) brat. I would make a really crappy comic-book superhero.

I haven't the slightest idea. I descended from a long line of dirt poor farmers who toiled their whole lives and barely got by.

Ooh, this looks interesting. Lesee...


French definitely. One--well, two of our supposed relatives include the famous Alexandre Dumas, the writer and creator of the novels "The Three Musketeers" and "The Count of Monte Cristo", while his father was a General for the Famous Nopolean Bonaparte... :D

We got that, Nova Scotian, a lil Puerto Rican, Huguenot, basically anything you can think of except Asian relations..

English, Canadian, and a little bit of Native American thrown in.

I'm composed technically of 2 out of the 3 main race classes...the only part I'm not is negroid.

If you want what I know of, here's the list:
Potawatami (I think that's how it's spelled, it's a northern Native American tribe)
English
Scots-Irish (along with their spearate parts)
Welsh
German
Swedish
Italian

So yeah, mostly Euro-trash, although that NA is what makes me part mongoloid.

Hmm, I'm not too interested in my roots, but I've heard English, German, Irish, and Native American. I had a project in school in which we had to trace out roots, and I lied on it.

half english (mum) half swiss (dad). born and raised in Switzerland.

I speak german, french, english and a bit of italian

I'm a french-Irish kinda guy. Hence my last name, O'Neill.

And I think there's a little English in there too.

roots
 

I have Scottish, Irish and English (Wales we think) roots...my ancestors can be traced back to the Irish potato famine and Revolutionary wartime if I'm not mistaken.

Part New Zealander, Welsh, German, and Dutch.

German-English (Wales too), with a lit'l bit o Irish to spice things up.

My father is very much into tracing out his family ancestry. I do know that his dad was an immigrant from England, who came to america in his 20's. The wife granddad married was mostly German, from what I understand. Never got to know her myself cause she died from cancer before I was born. My mom's side is predonimantly German-Irish too, so I assume I am mostly German... even though families past have been so Americanized now there's hardly any "German" influence left. *sai*

I thought Huguenot were the French Protestants...I didn't think they were classified as a seperate nationality.

Anyway, I'm Irish...

26+6=1!!!

Huh? Is the math problem a joke?

Dutch, German, Irish.

An American Mutt-

I know of Scandinavian and Italian. Then who knows what else.

100% pure swedish... Unless you count my moms' granny who was half german which would make me about 1/16 part german or something like that :)

They would be secret if I told you, now would they? :P

65% irish ,like 20% scotish and the rest is german.

I am Scottish, English, maybe German, and Native American.
My great-great-great grandfather is Sitting Bull. Also I am related to William Stewart....if you do not know him, he is the guy that bought Alaska from the Russians. He was part of President Lincoln's cabinet. Living history :D

I'm the son of Mondo Gecko who is the son of Steve Tyler (lead singer of Aerosmith) who is the Grandchild of all great Rock n' Roll...... I think he's American... I'm Canadian....

American blooded with a little bit of english stirred in.

SPOOT MY ROOTS!!! :lol:

Swedish farmers, Swedish farmers, Swedish farmers, and some Swedish soldiers thrown in the too... Oh oh, now I remember! There some... (err, is this the right word for it in english?) Vallons far back on my mothers side, I believe.

We share a common background... except for the Swedish part anyway.
