Well today I started doing more research on my family. My mother is from Germany and that part of my family is done. Since my grandparents and so on had to do family research when Hitler was in power, this was to prove that my family was "pure" so my ancestry was traced back to the Black Knights of the Black Forest which is really cool. I would like to dig deeper but that will come in time.
My father's family is pretty interesting. On my dad's dad's side, they are from Russia. My dad's mom's side is part Scottish and part English with one of my first American ancestors arriving on the Mayflower, yes I am a descendant of Richard Warren. The Keene side is done so I am working on the Scottish side. My cousin was wonderful enough to send me some documents to help me start my journey. Upon researching, I find that my great great great great grandfather was Indian, possibly Iroquois. I will definitely keep trying to find out about that. I'm so fascinated by what I am finding that I had to post.
