Italy. Emilia-Romagna (mother side) and Piedmont (father side).
Later, a part of the family from my father side (the brother of my grandfather) also moved to France (Lorraine) not because economic reasons but because married a French woman and they decided to live there.

[Mens-Sarda]

All my grandparents lived in the same village where I live, in this region of Sardinia named Meilogu, the name of this region is the contracted form of the Latin name "Medius Locus" (Place in the middle) because it lies exactly in the middle of the ancient Locus Turris (Country of Turris, later known as Logudoro), one of the four little nations in which Sardinia was divided from IXth to XIIIth century, known in Sardinian as Logos (Countries, Nations) or Judicados (from Judike = Judge, which was the maximum authority of the Country). These little nations were also the continuation of the Romano-Byzantines provincial institutions ruled by an official named Judex Provinciae (Judge of the Province), for this reason things like Feudalism were unknown in Sardinia until 1420, year of the Aragonese conquest.

My mom's grandparents were in Spain (mostly Mallorca), and my dad's grand parents were in Venezuela (states of Guarico and Barinas).

I forgot to say that my paternal second grand grandpa (paternal grandpa of my father's dad), who was an Italian immigrant, must have been alive back then, but he settled in Venezuela during the late 1800s. So he was already living in Venezuela in 1914.

haha well, that is still better than being a thousand-milks like you, what explains why people so are so degenerate ;)

[Mens-Sarda]

Back then it was a normal thing to marry only people of your village, since strangers were always watched with suspect, even now it's like this, but not so strictly, there are people in my neighborhood that even after 40 or 50 years living here are labeled to distinguish them as strangers, like "Su Montagninu" (the mountaneer), "Sa Campidanesa" (that from Campidanu, a plain of south Sardinia), "Su Continentale" (The Continental, aka The Italian) etc.etc.


there is a Sardinian proverb that explains well this way of thinking :

Si lèas muzère, lèala in bidda, e si podes, in carrela = If you take wife, take her in your village, and if you can, in your street.

There is no such thing as "Capeland". The Great Karoo is a semi-desert climatic region which stretches over the Western Cape and Northern Cape. Historically, what is now the Western Cape and Northern Cape was in the province of the Cape of Good Hope.

Ukrainian wannabe?! Candidly, if anything, I'm a wanna-not-be ... I don't enjoy sitting on the sidelines of this very ugly conflict, all while feeling I have something significant riding on it. What exactly does being Ukrainian get me? I'll tell you what: a whole lot of heartache anymore. It certainly wasn't always like that for me.

Hey, my family members are Ukrainian. What kind of man is disloyal to family? You contend that a Ukrainian nation did not exist until a recent point. But I'll tell you what: a Ukrainian reality was very much a part of my family members' experience. How can I let that go? As far as I can see, arguments such as that (i.e., the alleged ahistoricity of Ukraine as a nation) serve only a nefarious and despicable agenda in the contemporary geopolitics of that region - hence my reaction to it.

I allready get it, that you had lack of male's
benchmark and you were abused ideologicly
by your mommy and granny,All of that is completely false. Frankly, at one point I was taking my Ukrainian nationalism to a totally absurd extreme. I do admit that. My sentiments went so far beyond what anyone in my family espouses or has ever impressed upon me. For my own mental well-being, however, I am moving beyond that, or at least endeavoring to do so. Being Ukrainian was never one big political statement for me. It was just this ancestral place of reference; the experience of its culture and identity have been of a vestigial nature for me. Unfortunately, recent events have forever changed this perspective for me. I have felt compelled to embrace an extreme position. In reality, however, this was doing nothing for me, and nothing for the Ukrainian cause either, and is simply beyond the scope of any personal moral obligation I may have to family or Ukraine or whatever.

You just said an oxymoron.

Either you meant the line of ancestry (which is and can be only one and is
always paternal - so no need to tardicly say it), or you are speaking about
ascendats in general, then it is obviousl that it is about all of them.

An ancestor is soemone who is meaninful, whith how you are bound and every
one can know it, just knowing who you are. Ascendant not, noone knows them
knowing you, and most people do not know more ascendatds than six in average.

It is shamefull, that you as a christian do not know this.

Btw, Litwin was infected by autosomalism, and since then he's lost and there is no hope for him.
Once he was normal. Now he became a borg. He needs some Enterprise-crew to rescue him :)

No, Rethel, this is not how the word "ancestor" is used in English.

[Rethel]

No, Rethel, this is not how the word "ancestor" is used in English.

English has very wierd uses for many corrupted words, but...

Ok, so let;s try with your supposedly christian side:

Was Jesus the son of Lot?
Was Lot blessed by being an "ancestor"
of the Messiah? Does he deserve it at all?
Was Jesus a seed of Lot?

Or of Canaan? Or of Micraim? Of Ham? Or of Laban? Or of any other guy?

Does Jesus was proud of his other "ancestry" and kept,
preserved and continue such "heritage" being proud of it? :picard2:

No, he wasn't, but he was the son of the Virgin Mary, who is very important to some Christian groups, though not my own.

[Hruodberht]

Spain, maternal and paternal ancestors.

[Rethel]

No, he wasn't,

So you have the answer.
Now, go, and read all historical and literatyre stuff, which you missed at school.


but he was the son of the Virgin Mary, who is very important to some Christian groups, though not my own.

Yes, and what?
Did I denied that she was his mother?
Did I maybe said, that mother is not mother?
Did I said that mother is nothing?
Or that Jesus did not respect her?
Or something like that?

No. So, why are you reffering to it?

Because i recognize that people have more than one line of ancestry.

Bible does not. So, are you wiser also in that matter?

And it is just phisically impossible btw...

[Bobby Martnen]

And it is just phisically impossible.

Bible says you belong to the lineage of your father, but it doesn't say you can't trace maternal ancestry.

[Rethel]

Bible says you belong to the lineage of your father,

And here you should make a dot.


but it doesn't say you can't trace maternal ancestry.

Of course you can!
You can even trace the common ascendant with me, or all of them!
You can also trace all 30x-great-aunts! If you want, do it! Dooo iiiit!!!!

BUT DO NOT GIVE TO IT WRONG VALUE AND NAME. Is it really so hard?

[Bobby Martnen]

In English, it's called "ancestry". What you call ancestry is usually called "direct patrilineal ancestry".

[MysteriousWays]

All were in USA at that point.

I think 1/2-3/4 of mine were in America by then

In english a cohabitation of two guys is called a marriage, so please,
do not apply to modern leftist language, especially, if you have lack
of proper short vocabulary for things about we are talking about.

corruption of words is very common, but there is a difference between
a ancestor and the ancestor, you like it or not. As TAtards are not able
to get it, I use purpously two different words, hoping, they finally will
get it - if ever. Ancestor is someone meaningfull, not only a coincidental
mamber of the table of ascendats, which was found with heavy work
in the archive, and who is known only to the one who make that work.

Normal people do not even know these guys, neither care. Bible also.
Tradition also. Culture also. Civilisation also. Writers also. No sane person.
The fact, that you maybe have such a hobby, and you want make it more
valuable, doesn;t change the thing. Just deal with it, and move on.

They all lived in two small villages in central Portugal (northern Santarém district), one with a population of 1,700 in 1911. All of my great-grandparents were born in that village except for one who lived in a neighboring village of 500 inhabitants. My great-grandparents were young, with the eldest being 24 in 1914, and the youngest just 7. My great-great-grandparents were all in their 40s and 50s and one had already died in 1911 at the age of 38. A few of their parents were still alive, but the youngest of these were in their 70s.
