~90% UK, mostly British, a bit Scotch.

The other ~10% is German/Scandinavian.

One paternal surname ancestor was an Oxford grad who was a generation ahead of Shakespeare. That ancestor was in Stratford-Upon-Avon and teaching students there when young sire Willy was a kid and into him being a teenager.

They certainly knew each other, potentially my fore-bearer taught the lad?

There is a geographical place (a small community with a 11th Century Church) that shares our family name located in Cheshire in the Midlands of England.

English, Irish, German, and a drop of Portuguese.

The English is where I get my good characteristics. The Irish explains my insobriety. The German explains my belligerence. The Portuguese makes me want to hang out on a beach wearing a Speedo and gold chain necklace with a crucifix.

Years of genealogy makes this one easy.

Mostly Irish and Bavarian Swiss. Also includes at least 2X as much Native American as Liarwatha. (A Cherokee GGGGGGGG GF that I can document.)

English, Danish and Scottish. English part of my family has been in America since before the American Revolution so I consider myself a red blooded American.
