Dad's side 95% Irish. 5% Cherokee. If you were to see a pic of my sister you could totally see the Cherokee in her.
Mom's side. 70% Irish 30% Polish.
I just say I'm Irish most of the time.

My Mom is black. Although on her side of the family there is Native Amerian Indian and white. Which you can see in my Great Grandparents and my Grandma. My Dad is White and Japanese. His Father was Irish/Polish and my Grandma full Japanese. So, I'm white black and Japanese. People always mistkake me for Hispanic.

My parents are both from Honduras(in Central America). I was born and raised in Miami, but when people ask I always say I'm Honduran.

Probably comes from Europe (belgium).

I am mutt o rama here!
My Mom is Lebanese and Italian ( still have family in Beirut...praying for their safety)
My Dad is 3/4 Irish 1/4 German.
Hair...I got lots of hair!
What is of the MOST interest to me is what my family has done when they came to the US. My dad's family were huge in Union and political issues as were my mother's family. My great grandfather from Lebanon was BIg into being American, so much so that the families' house was a county party seat ( we have the " JFK sat here" chair) and my dad's grandfather had to bunker down the house to hold Union meetings so that his family wouldn't have been shot at. My dad's great grandmother was HUGE into the local Sufferage movement!

I'm Filipino-American...however most people can't tell I am so I always have to break it down to show why I don't look it. My mom is about half Filipino and European (French, German, and something else...) wheras my father is 1/4 Spanish, Filipino and has some chinese (I dunno how much).
After telling most people this, they're like "So then you're not really Filipino then?" But I pretty much am since both parents were born and raised in the Philippines. I was born there but grew up in the States.

Mine is pretty simple....my dad was from the Ibo tribe in Nigeria and my mom is from Arizona. As far as I know, on my mom's side, we're pure Black. My full name is Nigerian and I know a total of four words in Ibo....how pathetic. Surprisingly enough, 9 times out of 10, I can recognize if an African person is from Nigeria and I don't speak the language.

My granpap came over on the boat from Calabria, so my mom is 1/2 Italian, so that makes me 1/4 Italian.
My dad is a WHOPPING 1/128 Choctaw, so I'm 1/256th, and sad to say, its enough to get me a CDIB card, with full benefits. (can anyone say 4 years of college i DIDNT have to pay for?)
Other than that, I've heard Cherokee, Irish and Scottish coming from my moms side, and Black Dutch and maybe German from my Dad. The italian and choctaw are the only things I claim.
