Dinarid. Also some Alpine. She looks like she could be Italian.

We simply don't know, she was adopted from a unknown background. The family have a suspicions that she was either Italian or Spanish.

Interesting, I will pass this on to the family. Italian would make sense considering she was adopted in Dalmatia some where.

Yes, she was aware of it. She was adopted into a very rich family that had 12 kids already.

I am just saying that Dalmatian singing voice can't be just washed down in three generations. :bored:

My sister inherited my grand mothers voice, she sings wonderfully and is very musically gifted. I inherited my family athletic genes.

Well I was never pure Croatian to start with. If my grand mother was Italian it would just add to the colorful tapestry that is my family history but alas we will never know since even she did not know where she was born.
