You know, I'm probably one of the few people here that can say "I really don't know" and be perfectly honest about it.
I was adopted. I only found out a few years ago that my birth mother was the daughter of a doctor. She was "indiscreet" and took a long "vacation" in Hawaii because of it. Yup, I'm a honest-to-God bastard. Remember, this was 1957. Know nothing about the "sperm donor" or anything else about my birth mother. My adoptive parents picked me up from the hospital when I was 3 days old and thus began my life. I can truly say "I'm am an American" without a single twitch thinking about anything "hyphenated" to go along with it. |

All American, but my roots are;
Paternal grandparents came here from Germany in the early 1900s, and were 100% German. Supposed to be a high-ranking Nazi relative in there somewhere, but I've seen no proof of it. Maternal side is asst. mutts, with various amounts of Irish, English, Scottish, and Cherokee. I've been told that through some marriage/cousin deal we're related Andrew Jackson, but I have seen no proof of it. |
