>>9400221My mom's mother's side were original colonials from a formerly powerful English family (they tracked us down for a book on the family tree) and some of the earliest German immigrants to the states. Great great grandfather was a physicist on the Manhattan project and my great grandmother was one of the first women in America with a college education. My mom's father's side were later German immigrants who were farmers, they were larpers though because they were exiled from Sweden generations back and settled around Hamburg before leaving for America post Civil War.
Father's side are all Italian. His dads family came over in the 1880's as labourers, grandpa fought in WW2 in the Italian campaign because he could speak Italian. Grandmother was an Italian Army Nurse. They met during the reconstruction and she came back to the States with him.
