Well, hey, the Vikings weren't exactly friends with ANYONE, were they? Fortunately, our part of the family tree has been "watered down" so much only the name exists.

I'm half Hungarian, one-quarter each, Dutch and German. My husband also has Italian, English ,German, French,and Danish blood in him. Typical American ancestors.

My boys are regular "mongrels." Not sure about that spelling. I mean like a couple of "mixed" but unknown breeds of dogs.

My maiden name is De Blaey, or the Americanized version of De Blaaij. At least I can trace my ancentors back to 1600's Holland. What did I find? LOL...I'm descended from a long line of peasant farmers. No royalty or even a coat-of-arms. And that's the Dutch side. My Hungarian side was even worse. POOR peasant farmers subsisting on a diet of onions, garlic, cabbage, and an occasional chicken! But OH, did they have the paprika! LOL!

What about you?
