Ancestors...

Where did your ancestors come from ? Mine come from Scotland on my dads side and Spain / Cuba on my moms. Whenever people ask I just say I'm an American though :P.

I've always wanted to find out on ancestry.ca or something. All I know is that my dad's great grandparents were from Ireland and my mom's great grandparents were from Italy.

Mainly Russian and German. With a tad bit of Irish and Canadian.

I can only trace my ancestry back to about 1880...

I've always found it interesting that people only provide part of their ancestry when asked this question. thegerg

I'm mostly English and Irish, with some very distant native amaerican.

Germany and Ireland mostly. Africa if you go back far enough.

I think my father was able to trace our ancestry back to around 1300s IIRC.

I am half Danish and a Irish Wales mix.

[QUOTE="sonicare"][QUOTE="thegerg"] Well, people will say something like "Irish and German" but leave out anything earlier than a couple hundred years ago, even though we know that they have African ancestors.thegerg

My earliest ancestor discovered goes back to the Middle East during the Crusades.

Another branch of the family tree originated in Italy, prominent during the Renaissance.

More recently, my bloodline had ended up in England where one of my direct ancestors emigrated and got a little tasteful with Native American wildlife. Needless to say, it's gone all over the place since then.

I'm pretty much a mix of every white county :P

I've got the obvious ones, England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and I've got other ones like France and Denmark as well.

Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, Finnish, and French

I have no idea. My grandfather was Irish. That's all I know.

Eurasia via Beringia.

England, Australia and Ireland on my fathers side, Ukraine, Poland, Russia, Germany and Italy on my mothers side, and like all other human beings, African on a all sides :P. Other than that, I'm not currently aware.

Well, although I haven't done any genetic tests to be fully certain, as far as I know all of my ancestry is from Palestine

Scottish, English, French and Spanish.

[QUOTE="sonicare"] Well according to some scientists, all humans originated from Africa. But I doubt that people can really trace their lineage back that far. FrostyPhantasm

It's thegerg. He's absurdly pedantic like that.

The arabian penninsula and egypt

well...it depends how far back you want to go.

I know my family tree until 10 generations back. They all came from the town of Tilburg in The Netherlands. And that's the town I live in right now :D

Africa, North America, Madagascar, possibly Mexico (unconfirmed).

and The Netherlands.Zeviander

Mainly Italian, but Scottish, German, and some Irish as well.

Cambodia

America

well...it depends how far back you want to go.

Germany, France on my moms side. Yugoslavia on my dads side.

Sorry, I wasn't too clear.  I mainly meant like from the past 2 centuries or so ( recent history).  And which you identify most with personally and think you have inherited the most of.
