GakFace · 11-16-2003, 10:08 PM

US of A!!!!

My father's side entered USA way back when Thomas Hooker and 100 families came here. So I have ties with American History.

My mother's side... well her Grandma was born in Germany...

As to what Dragon2Fire said about the library having good geneology <sp> department? Yeah its one of THEE BEST in the country. My dad spent many hours there finding his lineage.

(USA)Cowpens, South Carolina born, Live in Atlanta now...family has been there since the latter part of th 1800's when they migrated down from the NC mtns after an "unfortunate" incident

edit* just checked your profile...I see you're in the same area, I'll have to come check out your store next time I go up to visit!!

wrongfullyaccuzd · 11-19-2003, 12:05 AM

American, born in Singapore, grew up in Africa, spent a year in India, currently reside in Nova.
Family's from predominantly Russia, Germany, Lithuania, Poland. That's on one side. From the other side I'm 6th gen American.

raeanna74 · 11-19-2003, 06:11 AM

American. Born in the USA and proud of it.

I'm a perfect example of the effect of the "melting pot". My family heritage is so mixed. Maternal side if very French-German mixed with some or our ancestors even coming from Alsace-Lorraine, France. Paternal side we aren't completely sure of since there was an adoption and the papers are still sealed. Paternal side makes me 1/8 Cherokee but with the blond hair of a German. I know somewhere along the line there's one of the grandfathers from England but that's about 3 or 4 generations ago. I'd have to check my records to know who for sure.

gal · 12-16-2003, 03:05 AM

I second that motion! I was born and raised in the true north strong and free as well.

As far as family history goes....Irish on my Mom's side (God bless that glorious country forever) and Icelandic on my Father's.

Destrox · 12-16-2003, 03:24 PM

Born and raised in a tiny ass little town in the good ol' USA.

Never been west of Ohio, been to MA to FL North/South wise tho
