Celtic tradition nice, Belb ive seen your photo you definitlley look like you would be living on the isle of skye in the 10th century |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So you're British with a strange accent effectively! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I thought you were a Turk, the part of the world where civilization arose has gone off and done a world tour but rarely comes back for a visit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have some Welsh in me Umbro, we probably share some DNA, my mothers grandfather was called Moses Jones |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've just come down From the Isle of Skye I'm no very big and I'm awful shy And the lassies shout when I go by Belbulon, where's your troosers? |

I think both my maternal and paternal surnames are anglo saxon, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Galea, Hawkings, Bryce, Davies Maltese, Saxon, and Celtic names in my family |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you have Malteser in you? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cool surnames |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cartwright, oakes, jones, stubbs and sparks sparks is an interesting one cos its old norse |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oakes, stubbs sparks all sound like hobbit surnames |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Most of my family were farmers |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah my mate Colin, his surname is edwards i think they were welsh hill farmers |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know my grandfather used to make ship boilers and his father went off to sea when he was very young, but thats all I know really, its sad in a way that I know so littler, perhaps there isnt much to know |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dunn = brown (dad) and bradbury = broad man of the field (mum). all farmer stock. it was sandiford and longbottom before that but the story goes my great-great gran (i think) was so embarrassed by it she changed it to longworth |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
afaik there is Dutch, Irish and German in me. Besides my German grandmother, I think my people have been here on the southern tip of Africa for a few hundred years, so not unlikely I might have a bit of Khoi or Zulu in me. One of these days I’ll sell my dna information to truly know. Technically speaking South African.... we’re a very mixed bunch. Nation states are as real as we make them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
broadman of the field, great etymology |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do you have blonde hair or am i making an assumption! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah Dna would be quite fascinating i noticed i have some traits with my mother, there is a slightly larger gap between my index and middle finger, its not noticeable unless you look for it, both my mother and brother have it but my dad didn't, I have mums blood type as well, so does my brother. at my dads funeral my uncles said how much I looked like my dad when he was young, which freaked me out alot |
||||||||

im italian, my mum was italian from the puglia region and she grew me up, i was born here in the north, never had a real willing of taking the egyptian nationality, basically because there was never a serious relationship with my father, who left when i was 2 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
incorrect assumption! brown hair! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mum and I seem to have very similar hands, which is not great for me as she suffers from serious arthritis |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe me too, although i was blonde until i was 12 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
come to think of it, I was a fat blonde baby, now im the opposite |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think Italian ancestry is particularly prestigious, just think of all the roman emperors and philosophers and poets you could be related too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Also Egyptian, i know you didnt get on with your dad, perhaps his parents were better people. Just think of the monuments the colossal monuments Egyptians built. The more or less invented modern civilization. So to have Roman and Egyptian ancestry is ace i reckon. When your ancestors were living in big cities and literate mine were still in mud huts |
||||||||

|
|
I'm half Silesian, and half a Friese |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Mo you might have Phoenician and Greek ancestry as well when they traded and conquered parts of southern italy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nice mix, ive heard of Silesia but never really knew what it was until i looked it up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just think how much your ancestry was effected by the roman empire, the huns, prussia and the holy roman empire |
||||||||
|

So are you guys all cisracial or are we going to see some transracial representation?! God, imagine being assigned white at birth and having no options! 😤 |

We all come from the great rift valley in the end |

|
|
Yeah Galea is a Maltese name |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
apparently its a word for a roman helmet, i wonder if it has something to do with the romans as well |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My grandfather said we fought the Romans in Malta and won. Sounds like a bullshit myth. Lol. The myth was that the Romans struggled in the hills. Imagine living in ancient Greece or Rome and moaning about Greek Supremacy or Roman Supremacy... You'd be killed for treason... You cisgendered Greek! You transphobic Roman! Hehe. |

my great grandfather on the silesian side was a cooper, who died in the second world war. my grandma, his daughter, had to flee from the russians after the war was over. her bigger sisters got raped by russian soldiers and my grandma was threatened by a drunk general with a gun when she was 5. she was fleeing for a whole year to the northest part of germany where i was born. i remember her telling me that one day she saw a dead horse lying in the middle of the street, which was something that struck her heavily she had to leave their parents house over night. it belongs to some polish people now. she went back 50 years later with her sisters and knocked on the door. she asked the owners if she could go in the attic. her doll that she hid 50 years ago was still there. |
