Ancestor ethnicity roll call! Check in, everybody.

[CBHagman]

How were your ancestors identified? Do you even know? Check in here.

The object is to find out where your research is directed and what resources you still lack. The more we share, the more we find out.

So who's on your list of People to Find? Hessian mercenaries from the Revolutionary War? The Choctaw? Celts? Or -- gulp -- the whole ethnically messy crowd in Central and Eastern Europe?

What resources do you employ? Do you even have any?

I've wanted to zero in on one small branch of my family, an Irish branch, probably from County Mayo, but despite posting on various message boards, I'm not getting anywhere (yet).

As for the rest of the family -- oy, don't get me started. We're Swedish, English, and some kind of Hungarian blend (And no, that last is not an item at Starbucks!). ;-)
