What is the percentage of Poles with German/Germanic ancestry?
Anyhow, he was an ethnic German but I still identify as Slavic since most of my family is Polish and Czech. My Slavo-Germanic surname is "Bernatowicz", comes from German name "Bernhard."
When and where they were?
It doesn't necessarly mean that guy was a German.Quote:
so there is that. "Bernhard" name is Germanic anyhow, so irregardless whether they were Germanic, Slavic, both or neither; they had a Slavo-Germanic surname and their ancestor lived amongst Germanics.
German names were very popular almost since ever.
The very son of Mieszko the first had german name.
They lived in the Russian Empire, then the 2nd Polish Republic and finally the USSR. They always said that they were originally German, they were Catholic but spoke Russian as mother-tongue (instead of Polish or German), they were also "mobbed" by local populations (whether they were Poles or Russians). You tell m what they were, they certainly weren't Poles.
No. They're PolGermans. That's about it. Lol
Then probably 100% of Poles have some Germanic admixture.
As for patrilineage - for example my surname is Slavic, but I have a Non-Slavic Y-DNA (R1b-L617), which must be a leftover from Iron Age inhabitants. It has nothing to do with Germans (Deutsche).
R1b-L617 is not even common in Germany, but more to the west:

On the other hand, my mother's surname is of Germanic origin.
Yeah but what I mean by Non-Slavic is that it did not expand during Slavic Migrations, as you can clearly tell considering what is its age (much older) and distribution (no correlation with Slavic languages). But it also does not correlate with Germans. It was probably from Celts who settled in Poland.
In 1980 census, English was actually the most frequently reported ancestry in the USA:

Genetic studies (Bryc 2015) also show that British ancestry is higher than German.
The distribution of people with R1b-L617 (as of December 2016):

Could be from the Lugii (Lugians), which is a Celtic ethnonym:

Yes, but the farest as you can go is polishness.
Slavness?
You could argue, but always will be buts...
Similar case is the king of Holland. Is he German (as oldest memory says) or Slav (as hg points)?
I would not be able to say clearly, becasue it could be that some "slavic clades" were earlier as
we think they were. Maybe with time and more kopalnych samples it could be determined easier,
but in such cases the farest as I would go it is familiy's matter to decide with which identify more.
Probably. But I would not totaly exclude Szottish element.Quote:
But it also does not correlate with Germans. It was probably from Celts who settled in Poland.
As they started to going stupid at that time, I trust more polish wikiQuote:

which says 80mln, and what was not so far ago on english wiki too.
No idea. But you have to know that Germans from areas to the east of the Oder themselves are largely Slavic in terms of genetics. For example this woman has all 16 German great-grandparents, but is autosomally very Slavic-shifted: https://www.theapricity.com/forum/sh...=1#post4280100
Surnames of her great-grandparents: Steinbach, Liebenau, Gnoss, Scheffler, Hass, Hasse, Voss, Zimmermann, Kopiske, Eichstädt, Feustel, Schmeisser, Hedke, Lück, Neumann, Schulz

So if some Polish person has a German ancestor with similar genetics, then this Polish person is still not different than an average Pole. Because that German ancestor was very Eastern.
You say, that it is not true, that 80 mln people comes from england, becasue Americans are mixed (as it would be not known). So I asked you - what about people, who came to America on Mayflower. They were from England so logically were Englishmen, so now, since they landed, are american English... or - as you supposed - they in some way became Indians (becasue they live on their land), Germans (becasue as you said, Americans are overwhelmingly of such provenance) or maybe someone else? If so, then how and when they totaly change themsleves and lost their roots replacing them by others? How?
If you not follow the culture, you still have ancestry.Quote:
I just believe that ancestry and culture needs to walk side by side.
You can began to foolow chinese culture, but it will
not make you chinese ancestry - or maybe will?
Mixing with later European migrants. The North-American culture is a fusion of several Northwest-European and even Southern European cultures (with the English/Anglo-Saxon still being the main component) that, thanks to the several years spent in a totally different continent, developed his own particularities.
No and this is exactly why i say that ancestry and culture needs to walk side by side. You can follow the chinese culture but if you are not a chinese by blood you are just a intruder.
Yes of course - does it change the fact, that american English is not american English?
did he suddenly lost his provenance, ancestors, history and everything becasue he participates in new enviroment??? :confused:
So what is your problem with English or Germans in this case?Quote:
No and this is exactly why i say that ancestry and culture needs to walk side by side. You can follow the chinese culture but if you are not a chinese by blood you are just a intruder.
Not following the culture doesn;t cancel the blood. One can always
start to cultivate some meaningless customs, if it hurts you so much...
It doesn;t work opposite way...
