Alright, lets see here, Irish, Scottish, German, English, and 1/16 Native American.

I know that last bit in fractional form only because of the fact I know about by great great grandmother. The rest is simple family line knowledge.

1/2 Irish, 1/4 German, 1/16th Native American... Not quite sure of the rest.
Sounds about the same as me. My great, great grandfather was native, the rest is European.

Apparently I'm also a descendant of Cuthbert Grant, though I'm not sure of the validity of those claims.
Cuthbert Grant was married three times. And someone has to be his descendant.

93,75% dutch, 6,25% (1/16th) Flemish as far as I know. I am also extremely white, but that's because the sun never touches my skin.

I am all Icelandic. My family bloodline can be traces to Sæmund Fróða who was alive in the 13th century. I have no idea if I come from the Celts that live here when they called Iceland Thule or if I'm from the Norse settlers that came in the 9 hundreds.

I am Estonian. My parents and grand and great-grand parents were Estonian as well.
But some 300 years ago on my fathers side there was a Danish knight who would be
one of my ancesters. And on my mothers side there should be some German in there
as they had a German last name. But i cant be 100 % on that.
Even though it is highly likely.

(Estonia is way up North so i am Caucasian, the Scandinavian kind, but not really Scandinavian)

I dunno, white and British.

Other than being completely unsentimental about that sort of thing, I've also decided to not find out, in response to all those people who insist on telling you they're 3/11 Mexican, 2 acres German, and 4 double Big Macs Latino, when what you've actually done is ask them if they're American.

They also inevitably claim that they're related to some historic figure of at least some minor importance.

English, with English parents, both of which had English parents, all of which had English parents. Even the surnames of all my Grandparents have English origins.

I know there is no such thing as "true" English but as far as I can tell I'm not even 1/8 anything else. They are even all from the same two counties which are next to each other so I can't even say I'm diverse in an English sense.

It kinda makes sense now why I don't really find English girls attractive and long to emmigrate, my biology is telling me I need to shake up the gene pool a little.

Purebred Korean. If you want me to specify North or South, I have no idea, since my parents were born shortly before the war started.

European American, which is longhand for white.

Something more specific? Okay.

I've got ancestors from Sweden, Germany and I think Switzerland, just off the top of my head. Probably got a little bit of other stuff too. I know that one of my eigth great grandfathers was a pirate! (but ninjas are still cooler)
