Whats your family(back ground) nationality
 
I'm bored, so just out of curiosity,i was wonderin if fast cars (speed) was in the genes (Blood)!

I'll Start.. Im Canadian (Italian)....My parents came to Canada from Italy in the 50s.
Maybe some sort of pattern will emerge from this !:D

I'm a mut. 1/4 Irish, 1/4 Scottish from my mom, the rest is Russian, German, Jewish, Polish, Czechoslovakian, Italian I think, and that is what my dad remembers. Both sides of the family came in through Ellis Island and stayed in Long Island. Try growing up with a Catholic mom and unreligious Jewish dad. My life could of been a poorly rated sitcom lol. I do attribute my mechanical skills to my heritage. The abilities of the Russians, Germans, and Italians may have contributed mainly, and the Scottish side too. I understand engines and machines in general better than most and learn it very easily. Plus my dad has a degree in electrical engineering, he is very good at his job as a technical writer. He has also been building cars since he was a teenager, and preferred driving old cars just for the fun of having to fix them up first. I believe it is passed in the genes.

Mixed grill here.

I have heritage from Germany, Scotland (Last name came from Scotland), France, and the Choctaw Native American tribe. I'm also half Vulcan and 100% southern country boy.

(I bled the French blood out with leaches, most of them are too liberal for me to tolerate - or to tolerate me.)

---

I have a friend who is half English and half French. He says he never agrees with himself.


I've lived all over the globe, and have come to find that people are people no matter where you go. Some of them are really cool, and others not so much. Where you come from means a lot less than who you choose to be.

But I will say that I have more German blood than anything else, and Germany is known for roads with no speed limit. :thumbsup:

Mom: Mutt.

That makes me a half-assed mutt if you ask me...100% melting pot.

brandotron 10-31-2011 02:03 PM

Not sure of the Euro roots on my mom's side, but I'm third generation in the USA from my dad's Mexican side.

Crazy. I'm like the whitest white guy ever, but I've seen my great grandparents' greencards. Interesting stuff!

Jay_LHD3 10-31-2011 02:10 PM

Dad: I know there is German and Irish; probably some other European in there.
Mom: European something and Cherokee Indian.

mikel441 10-31-2011 02:12 PM

American by Birth, Southern by the Grace of God!

Ladybugsmom 10-31-2011 09:19 PM

I used to think I was 1/2 German, 1/4 French, 1/4 English. Then I went on Ancestry.com and traced my family tree back as far as I could - turns out, there's almost no French in my family history. I was able to trace all the way back to King Edward the 1st on my mom's side... I always knew I should be treated like a princess!

goval 10-31-2011 09:53 PM

100% Brazilian.

Steve Dallas 10-31-2011 10:25 PM

I'm pretty sure my dad's side was half Polish and half Scottish. My mom's side is German. Both parents were born & raised in the good old U.S. of A.

heRS 10-31-2011 11:52 PM

My dads' side is Norwegian, Scottish, Dane and mom's side is a smattering of Irish, mostly English, of French descent and I share blood with Admiral Bly of the good ship Bounty.

Sterling 10-31-2011 11:56 PM
