    American. Although, I've had early family here since the late 1500's, later folks showed up in the 1600's. That's way before America was born, though, so Western and Northern European originally.

    I'm descended from a lineage of bipedal apes - Australopithecus gahri most likely - who evolved into Homo habilis who evolved into Homo ergaster (sometimes known as early Homo erectus), because of having larger brains and being able to use stone tools. Those appear to be my ancestors :drinker:

    more recently:

    mostly Homo sapiens with a little bit of Homo neanderthalensis

    even more recently:

    British, aka Briton, Pict, Angle, Saxon, Jute, Norman, Viking, Roman, Celt, and everyone else that's ever invaded the British Isles.

    more recently still:

    British, allegedly of Anglo-Saxon and Norman descent, but my mum's side of the family, who have a Norman surname, look very Celtic. I'm not aware of any Celtic ancestry, but you know... what's on the official records and where your genes actually come from are not necessarily the same thing LOL And there's a bit of unknown in there too... i.e. people in my dad's family too dark to be British so possibly Spanish, Jewish or Gypsy or something, who knows... lol.

    TL:DR I'm descended from bipedal apes of the genus Homo

    English I thought until recently until I traced one of my ancestors as a German [Hanoverian] immigrant back in the 1840s

    Little bit of Australian aboriginal, English and Dutch. My father's side of the family swear I take after his father (mostly this comes from my grandmother, who's a nasty old racist witch), my mother's side of the family swear I look like her. *Shrugs*.
