Me: Not quite sure..Both of my parents (Mom and Dad) were adopted..I know it's so strange to have two parents that are adoptedand then meet and marry.  So we don't have any exact family history. What I do know is that they were both adopted from Jewish Adoption agencies in NYC...Neither of my parents ever wanted to look for there biological parents either...

I have a super small family!

DH's family: MIL is Irish and FIL is Italian...MIL found her long lost Irish cousins and some family the last time they went to Ireland..They have a super long family tree. Which I think is soo cool..Same with FIL..!!

My father's family is Polish, but, my dad was actually born in Russia (actually, the Ukraine, on the run from the Nazi's), although I consider him Polish anyway.

My mother's family is from Poland (Latvia) and Hungary.

I'm an Ashkenazi Jewish (Eastern European) mix. 2 of 4 grandparents from the Ukraine, one from Poland (now Latvia) and not sure where my last is from but my grandma's maiden name was Stein so guessing Germany. All four grandparents born in the US so not recent generation.

DH is 3/4 Portuguese and 1/4 Italian. His father was born in Portugal so first generation, maternal grandparents were born in the US.

I'm very WASPy.  Mostly English - I am a direct decendent of Miles Standish straight off the Mayflower (14th great-grandfather), and a direct decendent of Roger Williams, who founded Rhode Island (12th great-uncle). This is on my dad's side...my mom's side is mostly English as well.

DH is Swedish/Polish on his mom's side (great-grandparents straight from there), and English/French Canadian on his dad's side.
