Try looking through some on-line phone books to see how many results you get. It sounds a bit Germanic to me though.
Reply:I have never met any

How can people be so many nationalities/heritages?
my friend says she is over 9 nationalities, so do other people I know.
I%26#039;m only 2 things, and I%26#039;ve asked my mom countless of times if i%26#039;m ever anything more then two things. But like my Polish friend says she%26#039;s like Hungarian, Mongolian, French, German etc etc.
How could people be so many things? D: is there a way to find out? I keep asking my family and they say I%26#039;m only two things and that the fact that other people say there like 9 different things is just ridiculous, like idk.
How can people be so many nationalities/heritages?
My children are Norwegian, Swedish, English, Scots-Irish, German, Irish and Italian-by-way-Spain, and French-Canadian. Darn-- that is only 8. All because so many distant ancestors migrated from Europe, mostly in the late 19th century, but some earlier.
Others have an even more diverse ancestry.
But there is nothing wrong with only two heritages.
If you do your research at some future date, you may discover other countries of origin. I did when I did my research.
How can people be so many nationalities/heritages?
Well, not every person came from a country with only one heritage group. For instance, in the small town of Chicopee Massachusetts, you could have a Polish person marry an Irish person and their Irish/Polish child could marry a person whose parents were Russian and French Canadian. Then, that Polish/Irish/Russian/French Canadian could marry someone whose parents were Chinese and Amerindian. I just went through only three generation and you can already see a wide range of heritages.
Personally, I am only Irish/Scottish/English/French/Amerindian for at least 16 generations, while my wife is French/Indian ONLY.. for at least 15 generation.
Reply:I am always opposed to disrepect to parents.. but this time, mom is wrong.
Do the math.. you have 2 parents, 4 grandparents; 8 greats. If you are young enough to know all 8, this is not that far back.
The number DOUBLES every generation.. so, by the time you have identifed 64 ancestors... all can be from different places. Any hard core researcher gets to that level with little trouble, and beyond. You%26#039;ll run out of countries, before running out of ancestors. So.. yeah, you absolutely are part of all those ancestors and where they came from. Small amounts, maybe but still real.
Now.. I%26#039;ll give mom a break. If she says NATIONALITIES, that refers to the place where you are a citizen, which is in the present. You might have dual nationalities if you stretch it, but that isn%26#039;t hugely common.
Your friend easily has heritage from many places.. but her nationality if born in the US, would be American. One refers to ancestry, the other refers to political allegiance.

Reply:when your family has been here for 300 years+ thats alot of time to mix in. i have at least that many.
Reply:You can tell your friend that her nationality is the country where she was born and if she became a naturalized citizen in another country that became her nationality. Sometimes a person can have dual citizenship. Nationality and ethnic or racial heritage is not the same thing.
I have had ancestors in this country before the Mayflowers, but the person who receives naturalization in a federal courthouse this week, their nationality becomes just as American as mine. The only way they can have another nationality is for them to have dual citizenship.
Now, there is no pure nationalities or races.
You say you just have 2 things in your heritage. If you trace your ancestry as you go back, any percentages will change. For instance you might have had a great great grandfather from Germany but he might have had a great grandfather from Poland, France or Bohemia. There were lots of boundary changes in some of those countries.
In the colonial South, they had English, Scots, ScotchIrish(called Ulster Scots in Britain), French Huguenots and people from one of the German states. My maternal grandmother, born in 1873, whose ancestry was 100% American colonial was a mix of all those things. However, her nationality was nothing but American.
She married my maternal grandfather in 1899 and he was a mixture of Polish,Polish Jew, German, English and Native American.
I recently had a Mitochondrial DNA test done and found I am in Haplogroup K1 which is most Ashkenazi Jews and some people around the Alps. So apparently my maternal grandmother who was 100% American colonial had some Jewish ancestry. Her German ancestry came from Alsace.
My father was Irish, orange and green, but one marriage in Ireland in the 1700s brought in Spanish, Italian and Austrian.
The English themselves are a nation of mutts. They had Celts before the Romans invaded and brought soldiers from most of the known world. Then the Germanic Anglo, Saxons and Jutes invaded. After that the Danes came. Then the French speaking Normans who originally were Northmen but settled in an area of France now called Normandy and naturally they intermarried with the natives.
All of our ancestors were nomads at one time. A lot of the nations that exist today did not exist until the last melennium. Genealogy DNA suggests(I didn%26#039;t say prove) that everyone ancestry goes back to Africa, even Scandinavians. Our differences are due to mutations. Some types of people could not survive in certain areas.
Your Polish friend is probably absolutely right. At one time Poland ruled a good part of Eastern Europe. Then Poland was divided between Prussia, Russia and Austria. The Mongolian Tartars were always goine on rampages through that part of the world. You will see somewhat slant eyes among Poles and Polish Jews.
Reply:They can be that way by having lots of different nationalities among their 32 great great great grandparents.
You find it out by reserch. Research into your family tree is called genealogy. If your grandparents are alive, and they remember who their grandparents were, ask them, and you%26#039;ve got your great great grandparents. (Ask them maiden names, birth dates and death dates, too.)
If, for instance, your father%26#039;s side of the family stayed in Scotland, wearing skirts, studying engineering, eating haggis and playing the bagpipe to annoy the English, and marrying only other Scots, while your mother%26#039;s side of the family stayed in England, avoiding the opportunity to marry someone who was Irish, Huguenot, Hindu, Pakistani, Norwegian, Chinese, American, Canadian, Australian, New Zealander or South African, it is quite possible that you only have two kinds of nations in your blood, until you get back to Normans, Vikings, Angles, Saxons, Jutes and Roman mercenaries from Belgium.
Your parents won%26#039;t know, unless the genealogy bug has bit them. One of your great aunts may know. The bug bites elserly but handsome ladies with alarming frequency.
The resolved questions here are full of tips and links for budding genealogists. Ignore the questions about Taylor Swift, family crests and surname origins.
Reply:You can%26#039;t have 9 %26quot;nationalities%26quot;, since a nationality depends on where you were born, or been granted citizenship. Some people have dual nationality (for example English and Canadian), but most have only one. I think your friend means her heritage, or cultural background.
Cultural backgrounds depend where your family are from, and what culturees they have brought into your life. Your mother may genuinely not know about your history. And even if SHE did, she might not know about your father%26#039;s history, and that%26#039;s 50% of your makeup.
The only way you can find out is to trace your family%26#039;s history. And perhaps an aunt or uncle, or even a grandparent knows more. They may have done the research already, so all the answers may be there for the taking. I was researching my tree for a year before my grandmother admitted that my grandfather had already done loads of it!
People are so many different cultures because their ancestors travelled and settled in different places, having children with local people, and therefore having multi-racial children.
I am made up of 6 different cultures (English, Belgian, Swiss, Dutch, German and French), and my partner is made up of 2 cultures (Spanish and Gibraltarian), which means when we have children, our kids will have 8 cultural backgrounds.
But it%26#039;s easier to be multi-racial in Europe, since a lot of the country boundaries moved over the centuries, so if families moved to the border, and then the border changed, they became different nationalities, and had children with others of that nationality that were perhaps from more inland areas of the country.
Also, you need to remember that there are so many cultures within Europe, whereas other places (like the States of Russia or China) only have the one culture in a few thousand miles.
Reply:Very simple: for instance, my mother%26#039;s father was British (1), her mother%26#039;s mother was Scottish (2), all three were American (3). My father%26#039;s father was Italian (4), my father%26#039;s mother was Italian but her grandmother was German (5). There in just one person we have 5 so I can easily see how 9 would happen just as easily.
My children now have my background (5) plus my husband%26#039;s background (Irish (6), German (7)). See how quickly it can add up?

Unless they were extremely important people, most officers were buried with their troops near the battleground. Your best resource would be the National Parks Service. They maintain the battlefield graveyards from that era and have access to the site of graves for most of the soldiers killed in action.

Without embalming, I think it would be very very unlikely that someone who died in battle, would be sent back home. Is it possible that the person was wounded, went home then died?
On the assumption that your person is a Texas vet, one logical thing is to go to the county where the family lived, and see if the records survive for that era. If he had children, you MIGHT find guardianship records. Mom remarrying on a certain date would also narrow it down.
Unless your nick name is wishful thinking as to your place.. you are in an excellent position to go to Hillsboro. One of the largest Confederate Research libraries is right there. His record (often including rosters and such) can be great.
Reply:Christians do NOT believe in embalming; without embalming, the body starts to decay immediately; in summer heat, the stench would be overwhelming within 24 hours. Look at a map of Civil War battlefields, and you will see a map of Civil War graveyards. Get a good book on the Civil War and you will see that they stacked bodies like cordwood for mass burials.

Reply:All three of the above answers are accurate, as far as they go.
Actually, there was a thriving embalming business that developed during the Civil War. Many officers bodies were embalmed on speculation. That is, the embalmers would locate the bodies of officers whose faces were still in good shape, embalmer the body and then telegram the family and ask to be reimbursed for their work. The body would be shipped after payment arrived. Gruesome, but true.
Because of the time delay, it is unlikely that the bodies would have been shipped on the same train as the troops they had served with.
Reply:I%26#039;ve read first-hand accounts of officers comlaining to generals of undertakers setting up near camps and advrtising, with placards and hand-bills, that pre-arrangements could be made. Lots of soldiers were buried on battle grounds. Lots were sent home, embalmed. If they went by train they would be in the baggage car, normally, and they%26#039;d normally go a different direction than their regiment.
It is illegal to bury someone without embalming them in California, these days. I don%26#039;t know how the Christians deal with that.
Reply:The American Civil War revolutionized embalming and funeral practices. Field embalmers for both Confederate and Union Armies prepared corpses using formaldehyde on the battlefield and then placed them in wooden coffins to be either buried locally or shipped to grieving families. Rail transport also allowed for the shipment of both mortuary supplies and bodies.
I%26#039;ve only been able to find information on the burial of two officers:
1) Confederate General Albert Sydney Johnston was killed at Shiloh, in Tennessee, in 1862. He was first buried in New Orleans; and then in 1866, the Texas Legislature passed a bill to have his body re interred in the State Cemetery in Austin, which it was in 1867.
2) Confederate Lieutenant General Thomas J. %26quot;Stonewall%26quot; Jackson was killed at Chancellorsville, Virginia, in 1863. His body (minus an arm that was amputated on the battle field) was first moved to the Governor%26#039;s Mansion in Richmond for public viewing, but eventually in 1891 it was transported to the Stonewall Jackson Memorial Cemetery.
I don%26#039;t know if the practice of allowing some bodies to be shipped home for burial changed in the waning years of the War.
BTW, all major branches of Christianity, including Roman Catholics, allow embalming. Until quite recently, however, Roman Catholic rites didn%26#039;t permit cremation. It%26#039;s Jews and Muslims who don%26#039;t embalm.

Most tribes have a certain quantum requirement. I don%26#039;t know of any that are more than 25%, so you shouldn%26#039;t have much of a problem. Your kids might have a problem, though.
Also, some tribes require that even though your parent has a CDIB, they also have to have been active in the tribe in order for their children to be accepted for membership. You%26#039;ll have to check with your individual band of your tribe to know if your path will be hampered by anything or not.

says Melanie Bown got $20,000 for showing up at a fund-raiser for Make-a-Wish, which gives one wish to children with leukemia and other fatal diseases. She donated it back after people pointed out she was being selfish, but that%26#039;s what she got.
If Taylor Swift is twice as popular as Melanie Brown, figure $40,000; if she is half as popular, $10,000. You%26#039;ll also have to send her a first-class airplane ticket, pay for a limo to drive her from the airport to your party and back, and maybe a nice hotel room. That probably isn%26#039;t the answer you wanted. You%26#039;d have to do an AWFUL lot of car washes to earn the cash.
My figures could be off by 50% either way. Her agent could quote you an exact fee. You%26#039;d write to her recording company, on paper, with a stamp and you%26#039;d send them a stamped, self-addressed envelope with a request for a fee schedule.
Speaking of Make-a-Wish, If you have leukemia or something else that may kill you in the next year, you might be able to get her or someone like her to come for free. Call Make-a-Wish in your county. A lot of entertainment and sports stars disguise themselves then sneak into dying children%26#039;s homes and hospital rooms. Make-a-Wish arranges it. They don%26#039;t want people to think they are milking a dying child for publicity, so you rarely read about it. M-a-W has contacts.
How much would it cost for taylor swift to come to my party ?
I would rather buy a nice fancy car (and got a nice bunch of change $$$ to Christen it in the hottest Night Club) with the insane amount of money that celebs charge for a private performance!

says Melanie Bown got $20,000 for showing up at a fund-raiser for Make-a-Wish, which gives one wish to children with leukemia and other fatal diseases. She donated it back after people pointed out she was being selfish, but that%26#039;s what she got.
If Taylor Swift is twice as popular as Melanie Brown, figure $40,000; if she is half as popular, $10,000. You%26#039;ll also have to send her a first-class airplane ticket, pay for a limo to drive her from the airport to your party and back, and maybe a nice hotel room. That probably isn%26#039;t the answer you wanted. You%26#039;d have to do an AWFUL lot of car washes to earn the cash.
My figures could be off by 50% either way. Her agent could quote you an exact fee. You%26#039;d write to her recording company, on paper, with a stamp and you%26#039;d send them a stamped, self-addressed envelope with a request for a fee schedule.

Found money?
how do i find out if my mother or myself were left money by someone in my family in one way or another.both of our last names have changed,this death was a long time ago,and to top it off,i was adopted by these %26quot;parents%26quot;at the age of five.
Found money?
Contact the court house in the area they lived in. There should%26#039;ve been a publication of some sort after their death as to what they did with the property.
Found money?
USA Answer:
Call the probate court in the county they were living in when they died. You%26#039;ll need their names and death dates. Wills are a matter of public record, but there may be a fee for a copy.
Reply:If you were legally adopted you no longer belong to the other family. Unless the deceased mentioned you in the will by name, you would no longer be eligible to inherit.
If you know the name of the person, you can check the social security death index and find the last place of residence of the deceased. That might help you locate the court of probate.
Reply:Another way to check, would be to do an on-line %26quot;Unclaimed Property Inquiry%26quot; from the Dept. of Treasury. All unclaimed monies are transferred to the government for holding. There is a time-limit though! Good Luck. I know this because not only did I find money once, but twice for two different family members!
