| Re: Your Decent(s)/ancestry (ies)? Well, one of my great-great-great-grandfathers was Swedish... Presumably there's also some German, Russian and Sámi blood in the family but that is not known for certain. The rest is a mixture of different regional varities of Finns.  |

| Re: Your Decent(s)/ancestry (ies)? my grandparents were from India. came to Malaysia in the 50s. by mum and dad were both born in Malaysia, so, thats why we're Malaysians. however, somewhere up the line, i have some portuguese blood. Remember, India was the 1st Asian country to be conquered by Portuguese. they married some locals and all, which explains, why my grandparents from my mum's side have the Lopez surname.. |
