I wonder what you do if your ancestors are in Greece...it seems that all of the search sites concentrate on western Europe...
I have it on good authority I am descended from an egg on my mother's side and a spermatozoa on my father's side...
As far as I know, I'm descended from hard-working Polish farmers on my moms side. (I am very proud to claim that!)
On dad's side, I'm descended from Irish/Scottish/British coal-miners (I'm also proud of THAT!). The story is that two of my Scot ancestors (surname 'Logan') escorted the heart of Robert the Bruce back from battle. Also,it is said that Daniel Boone is an ancestor. Daniel had lots of children, so I'm not surprised! lol!
My father-in-law's family (British/Scottish descent) is supposed to descend from Anne Boleyn. There may also be a Jewish grandma in there as well - not royalty, but I think that's pretty cool! My mother-in-law's family descended from somebody who came over on the Mayflower.
I am not descended from mo-ham-head.
Period.
Interesting. I know all European royal families are related to each other to some degree, whether it is England, Russia, Germany, or France. I know at one point, they inherited hemophila.
If I recall, Prince Charles, was calling for less intolerence towards Muslim. Hmmmmmmm. I know it is BS that Mohammad descendent is BS.
I can't decide what I find more disturbingly offensive- that they want us all to be related to MoHAMmed, or that anyone would have to add Chuck the Dim to their family tree because of it.
I have in my possesion a very detailed old geneology written in German. I have found my maternal grandmother in it. It apparently dates all the way back to the 11th Century, where I am told some ancestors were "robber barons."
Is there someone out there fluent in German, who would be interested in helping me with translation?
