Title: Where in the world did my AN come from?

Hi People:


With the talk about where we will spend the holiday season, I was thinking about yours and my AN.  

I'm English and Czech!  (with some Polish)  So that equils an English and Czech foreign Acoustic Neuroma!   ::)

That is my last laugh of the year!  So, a white female with an English and Czechoslovakian Acoustic Neuroma.

So a new thread and survey..... :-*



Bye for now,



Palace

Mine is pretty much Western Europen AN.   Since my hobby is genealogy, I can be much more specific than that...but that might take too long!!  British Isles, some German, a little Swiss, and one molecule of Italian since I found out that my 11th great grandfather was the first Italian immigrant and he arrived about 1632 to New Amsterdam.  He was killed on Long Island by Indians. He has a placque in Battery Park - Pietro Cesare Alberti.  I thought that was sooooo cool.

Irish, Irish, Irish, Irish with a speck of German.  Good grief, no wonder it took me forever to go to the doctor. 

Me, stubborn?  How could I not be?

Sue:  That is SO neat.  I too, am into genealogy big time.  I needed something to do while on my AN disability leave and got hooked for good.

Scottish and German with a smattering of Irish and Swiss (my last name is Swiss), in other words, completely American.   ;D

Ok,  I'm 50% Italian, and 50% Finnish. My parents were born in this country, 1912, 1915, but their siblings were born in Finland and Sicily, so I'm part Sicilian, Itialian. Would like to research my genealogy too some day.

For whatever interest it may hold for anyone, my ancestry is pure Anglo-Saxon (British/German) going back many generations.  However, all of my ancestors were settled in the U.S. well over a hundred years ago, some far longer than that.   To the best of my knowledge, I'm the first one in my family to develop a vestibular schwannoma  (acoustic neuroma).   What an 'honor'!
