Otterman: unknown constituent components, mostly British Isles Mutt. Large proportion of Scotish (Scottish?)and Irish (see: Francis Scott Key). At least 12.5% German. Significant doping of Dutch and Cherokee (6+%).

I'm also very popular in Dillenberg, Germany. Well, not really.

Like many Americans, I'm a mutt, too, but none of my ancestors are recent immigrants. I'm 3/8 Irish, 1/8 Welsh, 1/8 English, 1/4 Polish and I'm not sure about the last 1/8. It might be Dutch.

For the past half milennia 100% Great Dane. Going a bit further back there,s a bit of Englishman, Norman, Polish and even Byzantine lurking around in my gene pool.

My real Dad is American, so I'm Half-American; I've no idea what his heritage is (as I've never met him), so I could have any kind of European heritage there.

My mum is half Scottish and half English, so I guess in total that makes me:

50% American 25% Scottish  25% English

If I'd have been a pro-football player (that's soccer, btw :D )  I'd have had an interesting decision to make if it have ever come down to playing at international level... :)

Alba gu brath! So many Scots! Like my greet-greet-greet-grandaddy (unless he came from south o' the border, that is   :p ).
Somewhere waaaaay along the line is a French knight (yes, from the Order of St. John, one of those who were supposed to be chaste monks....  :confuse: ), not to mention the odd Italian and Greek, and several Maltese.

Predominantly German with a slight smattering of Dutch.  One of my ancestors apparently married a French immigrant about a century back, but I haven't felt the urge to surrender anything.

My Grandparents came from Avellino and Monto Bano in Southern Italy around the turn of the 19th Century ... so AFAIK - I'm Italian !  But based on my study of the Romans ... I may have other ethnicities in my family tree's past !?  ???  I'm told I don't look Italian; more German, Russian or Eastern Euro ?!  Rumor is that I also have some Klingon in my bloodline too !? :alien:

British, since it ain't an ethnicity and can cover a multitude of sins :)

The wife though is completely Indian, whatever that means!

I'm 50% Spanish and 50% Catalonian...I prefer to say that I'm 100% European... :p

My Father is from Cordoba (south Spain) and my Mother from Poblet ( a town in the center of catalonia) but I live all my life in Brcelona.

Someday I hear that the y catalonian ancecestors comes to the country with the CarloMagno Armies but I cannot confirm that but I'ts funny to think that it's true!! :D


cheers

English as far back as the family tree allows me to go. Before that I've no idea could be anything from, Saxon, Celtic or Norman!

99.5% Dutch, the 0.5% is French/German.

But in the summer I often hear I could be from Italy or Spain. Judge for yourselves:
