Your ancestry...

[B_ScaredLittleBoy]

Italian, English and Irish.

In other news: Germans, Transylvanians, Brits, and a long-lost Spaniard (for purposes of skin tone) all dare to call themselves progenitors of @L€x8.

Why was the second item in your list so, so .... obvious?

...and a steep descent it was.

Alex8 -> Hong Kongian is a lingo mate, we English speakers all have our own lingo, slang and colloquial language. In Australia, many people from Hong Kong refer themselves as Honkies, I prefer Hong Kongian, and its widely understood. Well it seems like you have understood what I meant anyway, so my purpose of conveying my message across is complete. Language is a working piece of art, the more creative the better.

PS: Im using this site for fun and during my own recreational time, so i don't expect or will not even bother to write academically

Um, okay, how about Hong Kongish? :tongue:

...and a steep descent it was.

To the contrary; I surpass my ancestors in all forms and fashions, physically, mentally and sexually.

Except they could shoot lightning bolts... and fly. :frown1:

Native on both sides... Lumbee from my mother's bloodline and Lumbee and Tuscarora from father's lineage.

All known branches of my family tree trace back to early settlers of Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Virginia from the mid 1600s to around 1700. The two newbie branches on my family tree are my mom's great grandfather who came to the US in the 1850s from Scotland via Ireland, and my dad's mom's grandparents, who came to the US in the 1860s from the Netherlands.

I know someone who claims to have more ancestors than anyone else.

Could that be because he or she claimed step-ancestors as well as blood ancestors... or because everyone else has more duplicate ancestors (like from third cousins marrying)?

I'll go ahead and post mine for this exercise on the older post mentioned. What is your ethnic makeup?

 

[Drifterwood]

Um, okay, how about Hong Kongish? :tongue:

Obviously - our people are from hungdong province, Scotland. Fortunate for some :wink:

 

[djpeh]

Mostly English with smidges of, in descending order of size of smidge: Scots, French, Welsh, Dutch, and Irish . . . As far as I know at this point. Most of my people came from Europe before 1750 or so . . .

And I will confess this: my parents are third cousins, once removed--the only people I know who have more closely related parents are the Prince of Wales and his siblings. (My parents had an idea they might be related when they married, since the same last names turn up on both sides, but we didn't find out exactly how until I did the research in high school . . .)

Yes, it's very, very scary . . .
