Myself, my parent and grandparents are Polish. However, my great grandparents came from Austria. So I have a surname full of random umlauts
It could be different, but as far as I know, my dad's heritage is pretty straight up England.

Zalp, that's awesome! one of my great great...grandparents was Tippu Sultan's (Most ferocious Indian king when it came to resistance against the British) treasurer and another one was the physician for the Maharaj of Mysore (the last Indian King). But i mean the whole invasion of the New World has always fascinated me and to meet someone who is a blood relative of the invaders is just amazing, do you know much about the Conquests and stuff I was hooked since 7th Grade when we went over it in History!

Yes I do, and anyway, there are many, many, many descendants of the conquerors in the whole continent.

I am 33.3...% Welsh 33.3...% Polish, 33.3...% Canadian and 0.1% American. I was born in Long Island NY. Canadian as that is my current residence and my fathers side for 2 generations. I hold no religious ties at all. My mother's parents were/are Christian. I have no clue what my dad's side was.
you know, we all share a lot in common with a banana genetically speaking. I think this whole cultural thing should just be we are all 100% african. If you think about it our cultural makeup is just a method devised in the olden days so they could combat each other without being criticized for being treacherous.

lessee... My parents consider themselves German and French, my grand parents say they are German, Scottish, French and another German. My Great grandparents (according to their children, they're all dead ) were German, German, French, Scottish, Hellenic, Indian, British and another German. So if anything, I am mostly German.
EDIT: oh, and pure geneologist, both my parents are geneologists. I am (inderictly) descended from Queen Elizabeth and thought to be a descendant of the Trojans. (Emphasis on the 'thought to be')

Seriously though, I'm have parts that are british, irish and italian, but most of my family's been in Canada for upward of 200 years, so I think I've earned the designation canadian.
