What do you mean? They have their own, quite distinct look.

They look Ashkenazi Jewish.

They are too much white to pass for Ashkenazim.

Interesting thoughts, they are not Jewish they are Italian with some British blood. The person in front is now 6 feet tall with a red beard very Anglo Saxon looking. Thanks

Since most of italian americans are from the south, i'd guess southerners.

They don't look that Southern or Ashkenazi, except for the girl on the far left. They could pass in Central Europe and maybe even in the British Isles. Is your Family Britalian (http://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?99435-Britalians&p=2033858&viewfull=1#post2033858)?

Yes they are Italian and Birtish some distant French, I know the pictures are not the best. But my grandfather on the right was always mistaken for Irish when he was younger and he thought it was funny when people would make Italian jokes in front of him and then he told them his name and they were shocked he was Italian. Some research shows that some of their italian surnames are Germanic in origin such as Ruocco and Banchi.

The Italian part is mostly of the Mountains of Abruzzo(I have to say this side was more of a Dinaric/Alpine type) and Tuscan(of distant French Anjou) according to surname research.

So, South (Abruzzo) and centre (Tuscany).
Cool.

If you want infos about italian surnames, send me a PM, i like genealogy and the evolutions of our surnames (we're the country in the world with the greatest number of surnames).

Not really... That is one of the craziest things I've heard you say. Ever seen Nigella Lawson? HAHAHAHA!

But to me they do not look Ashekenazi too much... maybe a lil but they look like they could pass from Campania to Lazio.
