Both grandparents are Irish, but my parents and i were born in England, so i consider myself English, and proud to be personally.

I also have some dutch roots but i dont know the full history.

Ace thread.

German father, surname is German spelling of Eastern European name, so nobody can pronounce it or spell it right wherever you go. Dad's family traceable back to Prague via disputed German/Polish territories. Mum's English with Cornish roots. I've been living for the past 10 years in beautiful west of Ireland, although I was born and brought up in NW London. Nationality ... err? computer says British.

My mum was actually wanting to do a trace back of the family tree (her side of my family anyway) Everyone in this thread should do the same and then we can really expand it....traces the ancestors of every Spurs fan in our community, decendants of Kings and Queens the lot of us no doubt

I found an amazing one for my mum's family on the internet already. Went back around 500 years with no gaps. Included one minor royal related by marriage and one complete lunatic murderer.

Trinidadian living in the US (Charlotte, NC) for the last 15 years.....Spurs supporter since '83.

I'm a typical Trini with mongrel blood; There's English, Scottish and Indian blood on mother's side and Portuguese, Spanish, Arawak Indian and African on my dad's. My last name is Portuguese which means that in the US I'm considered Hispanic even though I don't speak a word of Spanish.

Having spent a lot of time over the past 15 years researching my own and others' families, I regret to have to inform you that an awful lot of the family trees floating around on the web are to a greater or lesser degree fictitious.

Are you trying to tell me my Grandparents on my mother's side were not Nelson Mandela and Mother Theresa of Calcutta? :cry:
