    Default What Countries Do Your Ancestors Come From?

    What countries do your ancestors come from? I'll be breaking it down by my great-grandparents based on the research I've conducted so far:

    Dad's side:
    - Paternal grandpa: France, Germany, USA.
    - Paternal grandma: England, France, Ireland, Netherlands, Scotland, USA.
    - Maternal grandpa: USA (can't trace outside of country yet).
    - Maternal grandma: USA (can't trace outside of country yet).

    Mom's side:
    - Paternal grandpa: Norway, USA.
    - Paternal grandma: Canada, England, Germany, Switzerland, USA.
    - Maternal grandpa: Croatia (can't trace too far back on that side, but supposedly I have ancestors from Austria, Hungary, and Italy on that side of my family).
    - Maternal grandma: Canada, England, Ireland, Poland, Scotland, USA.
