ancestry roll call
I like this sort of stuff...
What's your racial/ethnic makeup? Are you proud of it? What brought your ancestors to America?
Me:
1/4 German
1/4 Swiss (German speaking)
1/4 English
1/4 Danish
English - Mixed bag. The ideals this country was founded upon are essentially English. But English rulers were oppressors and a-holes.
German/Swiss - ehh <shrugs shoulders>
Danish - Vikings are cool.
I wish I had some Scottish blood. I admire their independent fighting spirit. Plus bagpipes rule. I wouldn't mind a little Cherokee as well to spice things up.
The Church brought 7/8 of me to America. The remainder dates back to Puritan times.
