Not your nationality. Ethnicity. Which is where your ancestors came from. Fo example: I'm half Koeran, a quater German and a quarter Swedish. (The answer isn't American unless you're native American Indian.)

Hi Tigger Gal ! Wow! You're quite a variety ! My ethnicity is Irish and Swedish! It would be fun to go back into my genealogy and find out about my ancestors. I do know a little bit about some of them....but wouldnt it be fun to delve way, way back into the past?

My ethnic background is mostly German as far as it has been traced. There may be a little French or Belgian somewhere along the line, but nobody is sure.
(As far as Native Americans go, their ancestors also came to North America from elsewhere. It was just a lot longer ago - between about 13,000 - 20,000 years ago, from what I have read. They were the first people here, but did not originate here.)

I am 1/4 Irish, 1/2 Scot (which originally were Irish to begin with... or so I read somewhere), so I guess that would make me 3/4 Irish and 1/4 Italian. HOWEVER... My sister told me that we are decendants of Charlemane who was french... but since I don't care too much for my sister... I don't believe her ROFLH.....

My ancestors as far back as 1600, are all English so I am 100% English, so far anyway.
