Well, on my father's side I'm German, Dutch, English and a little Irish. My ancestors arrived here from Germany via England in 1710.
On my mother's side I'm Scottish, Swedish and I'm told there's a little French royalty in there as well. I have no idea when they all arrived here, but my best guess is late 1800s or early 1900s.
Most people say my traits are decidedly German, though.
