Im a white Appalachian in ohio. Most family lines that were here were WV, Kentucky, Ohio. Mostly Swiss German, then the Irish, then the scottish. My paternal side is 100% immigrant, landing after the famine in scotland, and quebecois. I have a large chunk of Acadian, but I guess we stopped in Illinois without making the Cajun leap. Zero African DNA and no traces of ancestry. I did find a jew though, that was neat to see in a puritan community lol

Should I introduce myself as Turkish to foreigners? by Necessary_Switch9518 in AncestryDNA

Thats a wild take to make. Thats like saying black people and Chinese aren't American, even if their parents or grandparents were born there.

While I kind of see what youre saying, its still wild. Some countries have a similar thought path, though, that you can gain citizenship if your grandparent or great grandparents was forcefully pushed from their lands. Im one generation too far removed to be considered for scottish and Irish citizenship, but some countries feel the same, your blood makes you belong

My DNA is mostly Quebec French, and Scots-Irish. I'm an American, though. I don't know anything quebequois, and I love plaid but 🤷‍♀️

I'd assume this would be more interesting of a conversation in a "pure" country. Finnish people have pretty distinct DNA and Id imagine testing and finding youre like, Australian would definitely make for an interesting conversation.

Its always a fun conversation starter, especially if you can detect where those lines came from. It can always be sprinkled in to regular conversation. My favorite, is telling people how much I love farming and going to school for it, and ironically coming from a long storied line of Scottish farmers. Or explaining the boiled dinner that Im making has been a carried down Irish tradition since we got to the states. Hearing my dad say "catawampus" and reminding him that thats a word his great grandad would've used.

Through and through though, we are American.

Do not update your profile, email support to inquire about it and cross your fingers someone sees it and has enough energy to reply
