I am an Eastern European mutt, and I'm proud of it: mostly Irish, but also Italian, German, French, Scottish, Polish... I also think there's a little bit of French-Canadian in there, eh?
Chris is a little more simpler: 75% Irish, 25% English
Poor Samma...

Me: 50% Slovak, 37ish% Italian, 13ish% Irish
Michael: 100% Irish (his father lives in Ireland)
| cute shoes make me happy |
My whole family is 100% German. My grandparents came over from Germany and spoke German - they taught me some, but I don't speak it
H is Polish and Czech I think
Me: Italian, Czech, Scottish, English
Josh: Mostly Irish
<a href="http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h205/adia83/?action=view
I am 75% Lithuanian and 25% European mutt (as was so wonderfully put in pp). Paternal grandparents and maternal Grandfather were 100% Lugan but my maternal grandmother's family was from all over Europe.
Jay is like 98% Irish and a tiny percent American Indian which gives us our delightful last name of Beaver...that no one ever really believes is our last name. We couldn't have just ended up McCaffrey's or O'Malleys, but I digress.
I don't know percentages. I'm part Irish, Mexican, German, English, and a little Native American (I forget which tribe).
DH will tell you he's "half Canadian." He has a lot of Irish and English in his heritage, too.
Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
I'm like 75% Irish, like 20% German, and a sprinkle of English
Scott's 50% Italian and 50% Scottish
On Guy's side, he's pretty much all German and English, with a little Irish and Native American thrown in for good measure.

Me: Filipino
Patrick: Taiwanese (from China, not native)
me: 50% German, 25% Norwegian, 25% Yankee (my mom's mom's entire family has been in CT since the 1600s, my grandma was the first person that married someone who hadn't been in CT since forever)
him: doesn't know percentages, but mostly German and some Scottish (or possibly Irish). I love looking at his geneaology, it's all German names except the single Scottish name.
Me: Like 90% German and the other mix of Norwegian and Sweetish
Floyd: Hispanic-- Guatemalan. Spanish is his first language. Some people say he has a accent but I don't hear it.
I'm American.
Me: 50% Irish, 25% Lithuanian, 25% Canadian
B: 75% Irish, 25% German
I'm pretty sure I'm more of a mutt than I know about, but what I do know is: English, Scottish, Native American. I'd say those each get about 25%, and the rest is what I don't know.
DH is Scottish and Irish.
Me- as far as we can trace - German all the way. Dad's parents are both 1st generation Americans and my mom's were second generation so that is pretty much it.
Mark- mix of European nations- his fathers family was Eastern European Jewish, just left before the craziness.
Me: Swedish, German, French-Canadian, Irish and English
Doug: Italian....and he doesn't know anything about his dad's side.
Me: My Dad (and all 14 of his siblings) were born in Puerto Rico. Mom is about 50% Italian and the rest of her is a mix of Spanish and Polish.
CB:The two dominate nationalities are Irish and Italian. Some Slovak and German in there too.
Me: Russian, Polish, German, Israeli
K: Israeli, Scottish
Me: Czech (mom's side); Irish, Italian, German (dad's side)
Danny: who the crap knows. He's definitely a mutt. We *think* there may be some Cherokee, Irish, English, and German, but aren't positive, as no one in his entire family (either side) has any idea about their family history. Makes it hard for the genealogist in the family (i.e. me).
Stand up for something you believe in.
Me: Scottish & French
Joel: Sicilian and "white bread American" as his Dad says because he has no idea where his side of the family is from. lol
Me - 99% German. I think we had one Welsh person marry in. My grandparents on my dad's side immigrated in 1959. My great grandparents on my mom's side immigrated in the late 1800s/early 1900s.
Jason - mix of western Europe. His family has lived here since the 1700s.
Baby Blue Eyes
I'm Irish and German.
Andy is Italian and Swiss.
