    On my father's side, his father's line was Scotch-Irish (Clark-Dalton) from the eastern Virginia/Tennessee/West Virginia area and his mother was German from the same area; on my mother's side, her father was Puerto Rican via northern Spain (Moreno) and her mother was Puerto Rican (Marrero).

    Polish, Russian (I'm a descendant of the Sviatopolk-Mirskii family who were Russian royalty) and Lithuanian. I'm mostly Polish and Russian though. My family history is very interesting. Somehow I'm related to Einstein on my dad's side. Something with my great-grandmother's sister's husband's daughter or something like that.

    Haven't been here for about a year and a half, doubt anyone still remembers me...

    ...My family came from China originally, at least 120+ years or more, ago.
