    100% Norwegian. Or both my parent's sides immigrated from Norway, at least.

    One of those sides goes back quite a ways. The other side didn't keep any records.

    Mainly English, Quarter Irish, possibly some French in there, and either Swedish or Australian.

    My dad's side is mostly Irish. That's where our surname came from, presumably Southern Ireland. My dad's family moved to England a while back and the surname changed slightly due to pronunciation and cultural differences.

    My mum's side is a bit more obscure. The surname suggests English decent, however it's quite possible that when William the conqueror took over that my mum's relative could of been of Norman decent-so possibly some French in there.

    I know one of my ancestors was imprisoned (for what I do not know) and was kept captive on a ship filled with prisoners. We've managed to work out that based on the time period and status they would have either been sent to Australia or Sweden. Now, it seems more likely that it was Sweden based on my complexion, people have told me I look Swedish.

    And despite popular belief, I am not Caribbean. I don't get how people even reach this conclusion considering my pale almost vampire like skin, freckles, light brown eyes and blonde hair. I get people coming up to me like "How are you white? You're hair's so poofy for a white person! Can I touch it? Are you sure that's your real dad?" :dry: Yes, now leave me alone.

    I'm a Scotch-Irish American, as most of my dad's side of the family immigrated here from Ulster around the 1750s. On my mom's side it's a lot more mixed.
