October 20, 200619 yr I got quite a cool heritage in me. Firstly I am around half English. Quite a bit of Irish Slightly less Swedish then a touch of German My Irish ancestory is not 'true' Irish but can be traced back to the viking invaders of the 13th century. They would of interbreed with the locals of time so that segment of scandinavian blood in me would be quite diluted. But I can still claim to be a viking.
October 20, 200619 yr I got some pretty unique DNA in me, from Finland, Denmark, Croatia/Serbia, Sweden and Russia. 8-) My Irish ancestory is not 'true' Irish but can be traced back to the viking invaders of the 13th century. They would of interbreed with the locals of time so that segment of scandinavian blood in me would be quite diluted. But I can still claim to be a viking. How'd you find out? From my mothers side I have lots of people in my family that I descend from that have a Swedish/Danish last name, but the ancestry can be barely traced to about the 14th century and I have no idea if some of them were vikings. Our family chronicle says though that it's nearly impossible to know because real vikings ceased to exist already before the end of the 11th century.

Our family chronicle says though that it's nearly impossible to know because real vikings ceased to exist already before the end of the 11th century. That far back, it is a bit hazy... but the last name is the keys. The main thing is that the last name is one of the invading forces. That far back I do not think there is still any 'clear links' to individuals. Then in that region of Ireland, our family was quite significant land owners. Much of which was owned by 'the family' until quite recently. I know that my father has spent a lot of time researching, so I might ask him to give me the information he has so I can provide a more detailed answer. The last time I looked was around 10 years ago. (With regards to the viking, it occurred slightly after the main viking invasions of the Britain. They were part of that invasion of Britain and they settled in Wales for a while, at a later date they decided to try and attempt a invasion of part of Ireland. Which they succeeded and become the ruling elite for a couple of generations over a fairly significant block of land. They then got conquered by another Invasion from england and lost their status, but still somehow maintained ownership of part of the land. After that time they pretty much integrated into the Irish community.)
October 21, 200619 yr 100% Chinese 8-). Not considering myself an American has gotten me shot twice at the fair a month ago :lol: (just an airsoft rifle, nothing serious) All PKers need to read this

October 21, 200619 yr I warn you, I have a VERY large familey....... Also i am not gonna list off the percents because frankley...I don't know them. German, Polish, English, Australian, Austrian, Scottish, Irish, Welsh, Russian, Canadian, french, italian and part american-indian. my familey was also very spread ou as you can tell. You can't ever find a place that's nice and peaceful, because there isn't any. You may think there is, but once you get there, when you're not looking, somebody'll sneak up and write "(bleep) you" right under your nose. Try it sometime. I think, even, if I ever die, and they stick me in a cemetery, and I have a tombstone and all, it'll say "Holden Caulfield" on it, and then what year I was born and what year I died, and then right under that it'll say "(bleep) you."
