hooked 0 #1 November 12, 2002 Okay, so Michele's post on her International Heritage office lunch got me thinking......... What is your heritage? Ethnic background? I am of Swedish and German descent, maybe some English too. J -------------------------------------- Sometimes we're just being Humans.....But we're always Human Beings.

hooked 0 #7 November 12, 2002 The reason I said maybe some English, was most of the heritage research has been done from my grandmothers family and just now the research has been done on my father's side, and it's English! I thought I should clarify that somewhat. J -------------------------------------- Sometimes we're just being Humans.....But we're always Human Beings.

PhillyKev 0 #10 November 12, 2002 so if you're father's side is English, the "maybe" is because you're not sure if he's really your father? Good thing you cleared that up Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is my father, I guess I just worded it wrong, and I was trying to remember where all the ancestors were from. What can I say, too much thinking with a headache, just makes it worse!

JohnJug 0 #23 November 12, 2002 Me, I'm 100% purebred American mutt. As far as I know, there's some irish, scottish, english, german and possibly some other europeans in there. Never done much family research, but I'm pretty sure we are at least fifth generation americans. You come from nothing. You go back to nothing. What have you lost? Nothing!

wmw999 2,440 #24 November 12, 2002 All Swedish. One set of great-grandparents, on being offered the opportunity to pick a last name as they arrived, decided to go with something a little more distinctive and American-sounding, instead of the Andersen they had. They picked JohnsonWendy W. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

jceman 1 #25 November 12, 2002 Father's side -- Polish and Dalmatian (no, NOT the dog -- look it up) Mother's side -- Austrian and ?. Her dad was born in Sweden of Czech/Romany parentage. Guess that basically makes me a Slavic/Nordic Gypsy? Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
