What is your heritage?

[Solid Snake]

I thought this could be a fun thread to learn a bit about everyone's backgrounds.

I am primarily Italian (And yes, I am proud... have you tasted the food!? HAVE YOU!?).
My great grandparents (on my mom's side) came over to America from Italy. My grandfather fought in the war, even made friends with a lil wolf pup.. true story. I actually have ties to the early 1900's American Italian mob as well. They were a vigilantly group that took it upon themselves to protect people when the police were slacking. I'll have to get a refresher on the name of the book but there is a book out there that is about that part of my family. I wish I had spent more time with my Nana when she was still alive. She cooked amazing Italian food all from scratch and knew fluent Italian. It was always hilarious to me that she would swear in Italian in front of me, my brother, and my cousins when we were kids as if we didn't know. My one uncle recently went to Italy for the first time to connect to his roots and ended up going back a second time. Would be cool to find some family members over there. My father's side, I don't know much about but he is a mix of Italian, German, and Polish I believe so I got a bit of crazy white folk in my genes as well. I have always been drawn to my Italian heritage and plan on learning more about it.

Well, my family has been in Newfoundland for quite some time. Safe to say I probably have majority British heritage, but you never know, plenty of different people ended up in Newfoundland, wouldn't be surprised if I had some Spanish ancestors if you go far back enough. I'd do the 23 & me test if they didn't sell your DNA lmao, maybe one day.

I have been tempted to do one of those tests but I am so paranoid. I would rather dig around in my mom's old boxes of hoarded stuff from my grandparents. lol I did some digging already on that side of my family because I wanted to see if I had this Italian heritage coverage thing for citizenship in the UK but I am staying put in the good ol' U S of All Cats Are Mine. Soli loves it here too. He can throw tea at people and use British slang. Also, him moving here will piss @Jeffry Fucking Mason off and that is the real reason he is moving here.

We need a smarter President. Fuck the Mexican border, we need to build a wall (a yuge one) along the Atlantic to keep those damn Brits out of our beautiful nation. We can use all the tax money off of tea and dental visits to pay for it, cuz god knows they can't afford it after Brexit

My entire family besides my parents lives in the U.K...

Never curious to look into it more? I mean on your mom's side. It'd be hard to trace back on your dad's side.

Grandpa on my mom's side is from the Texas area, unknown of which area since the family was forced out due to a racial situation. Where I get my Black amd Irish roots from. Also partially where I picked up wrestling, more of a love of Blues and Jazz and more.

Grandma on my mom's side is from Mexico, got a mixture of native and Spanish from this side. Food is bomb af and I love learning to make Mexican food.

On my grandpa on my dad's side they're from Alabama. Wrestling influence was huge here since my dad has vhs and tons of products from WWF's 80's, 90's and more. Also learned how to pick up cooking from here since people in thr South are good at cooking.

On my grandma they're from Isreal, but she passed away far before I was born.
