Where did your ancestors come from? For me, paternally, my maternal grandparents came from Poland, probably around the late 1800s or early 1900s, and they settled in south-side Milwaukee. My paternal Great grandfather was a Canadian immigrant with an Austrian father and British mother. On my mothers side, all of my ancestors were Catholic German and Swiss German of different kinds, except for my maternal grandfather, who was adopted by Germans but was born from parents with the last names "Dupre" and "Soper," which I do not know the exact origins of. That's what I know. Anyone have any interesting stories?

A lot of Canadians moved south into the Midwest in the late 19th century looking for industrial work, same with my ancestors. My great-grandparents came from Quebec.
>>17987830Cornwall, Scotland, Poland, Lithuania, Germany, England (Essex). Before that they were all Nordic Aryans.
>>17987856I know many people have French last names in the UP, although I associate most Quebec to America immigration with Maine, particularly Lewiston.
You are a Slavic subhuman. A waste of your mother’s Germanic blood. I wish I could put a bullet in your stupid Polacke plumber head for Odin and Hitler. One drop rule. You are the bastardization of Nordic blood and you will be murdered when we come to power and your finances and personal belongings will be handed over to a pure Nord of aristocratic stock.
Half my ancestors were Palatinate Germans who came here prior to the Revolutionary War. The other half came from Austria in 1910-ish and were some kind of German-Hungarian mix.
On my mother's side I have family that have been in America since before Independence. Her family is mostly old English stock with some dutch mixed in. My father's family were part of the great German wave that arrived in America in the 19th century. My great grandfather on my dad's side was the first of his family to arrive in the US. His son, my grandfather, married a Polish woman, so my father is half German, half Polish. That makes me quarter German, quarter Polish, and the other half is an indeterminate mix of English and a bit of dutch.My dad's family moved almost immediately out west after arriving in America at Ellis Island, and wound up settling in Minnesota, where they ran a small farm until my grandfather became an auto mechanic and moved to St Paul. I'm not sure how my mom's family wound up in the midwest, because they lived in Pennsylvania for generations before migrating westward at some point, for reasons that aren't explained. They owned land in Oklahoma but the Great Depression and then the Dust Bowl drove them off it. My grandpa became an army engineer making bombs and that had him moving constantly around the country with his family.

>>17987862you're a loser
>>17987870They still had land in Pennsylvania though. I know because her family is still there, living on a 200+ year old estate. They're very distant relatives who I've never visited.
>>17987830Long story short: Germany and Britain.I know that the German part from my father's side came from Germany in the mid 1850s from a tiny village in the Baden-Württemberg region. Set up shop in Northern Kentucky right by the Ohio river next to Cincinnati. On my mother's side, my grandfather's lineage was in Virginia in the 1830s and probably made the hop over the Appalachians into the holler country of Kentucky maybe a decade or two later.Some of my ancestors on my mother's side served in the revolutionary and civil war. So on that side they've obviously been here quite a while.
