What's your heritage?
I'm just English I think, quite boring. I know I have a little bit of Irish in me but that's quite a few generations back.
Scottish and English on account of my parents. Haven't really traced back or anything and I probably never will. My last name is Campbell which is a Scottish clan.
Probably have Italian ancestry too on account of my tanned skin and big nose. :hugesmile:

I'm half Scottish and half English, but if I go right Back I know both sides of my family originally came from France :-) my uncle is really into family trees so I'm lucky to have seen them go back for centuries.
You will probably be more than just English I'd imagine :-)

English parents. Irish from way back and I think we have some oriental genes somewhere along the one.

You should look into it if your interested, I'd imagine it's quite hard though, like I said I'm lucky that a lot the information has been found already. It's really I interesting I have some funny ancestors, there's prostitutes, and horse thieves and a man who had a castle and spent all his money entertaining a king lol.

My dad's is all Irish. My mum's mum is Irish and her dad is from Hong Kong and his parents were half Chinese and half Swedish and half Chinese and half German. Which makes me 3/4 Irish, an eighth Chinese, a sixteenth German and a sixteenth Swedish. My mum was born in London too and says she's English sometimes but she really counts her as Irish.
