On my Dads side of the family the last 6 generations were born and raised in Abilene and Hawley texas. They were all farmers and ranchers. My Mom is origanlly from Oklahoma but moved to texas before she was 1 yr old, I think i remember her telling me she had some Cherokee in her and im not to sure on the background for the rest of her side of the family.

Irish on my Dad's side.  Don't know on Mon's side.  Her parents are from Indiana 86 yrs ago and their parents the same.

Each of my Grandparents came thru Ellis Island....met and married in NYC

Dads side = German and Italian

Moms side = Norwegian and Danish

I'm 1/4 of each so that makes me a New York City U.S. American who has become a Tennessee Southerner by the grace of God!

I'm also a "d**n" Yankee because I stayed (been in the south since 1973)

My official ethnicity is Hillbilly from New York City!  ;)

I am also a MOOK  :o

My dad's side of the family came to America from Denmark back in the mid 1800's. They were from a long line of musicians and vocalists.

My mom's side of the family came the Americas from England back in 1620 and settle in a place called Plymouth, Massachusetts. Yep, that's right. They came over on the Mayflower. They later were one of the original settlers of Newburyport, Mass. Now known as Newbury. A famous person on my mom's side was Rebecca Nurse. The third person hung in the Salem Witch Trials. She was my 10th Great Grandmother.

Going back to the Grandparents, best I have come up with is the Taylors and Edwards are of English descent.  The Hylemon's were Irish.  The Hare's, unsure, but think Irish as well.

Regardless, 5th generation Southern'r by the Grace of God.

American, all of my ancestors have always lived in North Carolina.

I think they left a few of us on a island in NC and went back to fetch

some more. When they got back us Matthews had scattered all over the state. once we find a home we are hard to get rid of. Oh yea, that island was named Matthews Island and when they got back and couldn't find us they renamed it Roanoke Island.
