Europeans, do you have extended family in the States?

Well, we like to look back to the Motherland and take great pride in waving our indigenous flags in America, so I was wondering if you have any family here and are you in contact with them or are they too many generations removed?

I have some third cousins in northern and eastern Europe. Don't talk to them at all, although if I ever make it that way I will make it a goal to look them up.
 
Well, my mother had an aunt, who got married. The guy she married to had a brother who moved to Canada in the 50s or 60s...

Considering the fact that I don't consider these people to be family & considering the fact that they didn't move to the US, I have to say no.

I do have a niece in India though & a niece of my mother moved to Australia... (don't remember when though).

If I remember right, about 120 years ago, a great-granduncle or such went over to the USA, as the written memories of my great -gradnfather tell.

But I have no idea where he might be

If someone here has ancestors from Niebüll, PM me ^^

Are you full blooded German? There's a lot of Germans in my state.
 
My younger brother lived in los angeles for two years and at the moment he lives in montreal since 3 years.

We have still good contact and he comes at least once a year to germany to visit his family and friends.

In wich state are you living Bloodshot Scott? Would be interesting to know where so many germans live in the U.S..

Check your rep.

No.













Funny, I thought Europeans were so much more conscientious about their brothers in American than we to them. Maybe it's a testament to how much of a rat infested multicultural dump America has become and how much we 'gringos' really would like to take the Hispanic/Latino advice to "go back to our own country."

Its complicated since I'm adopted,( biological mom with stepdad ) but I know I'm almost 100% German. Biological father is 100% German. Mom is very close to 100%.

I should clarify also, although percentage wise my state has a ton of Germans, there are a ton of Germans throughout the country, but namely I believe the Midwest has the most in general.

The guy on our southern border who got murdered by those Mexican vermin to our south was German. That was Texas I think. His ancestors were German immigrants who farmed the land down there for over a hundred years. :hatsoff:

I'd say my state has even more Scandinavians than any other European group. That I'm almost positive of.

I am a failure to the Korean side of my family
I have Korean extended family out in California and the older ones are as nuttier as my mom.
 
I think there are some canadians,but I don't consider them family since I don't know who they are or what they look like or anything.

my grandmother's sister married a US soldier after the war and moved to new jersey. i only saw her once when i was maybe 4 or 5 years old and she came to visit us in germany.
 
Not to me anyway.
I know nothing about them except that they had an applefarm,I think it was,up in B.C.
They have visited once in the 60s or 70s.
But I hardly have any contact with my cousins either...

Well you're not much different than us. I had a girlfriend and I asked what her ethnicity was and she was like....what? I need a girl with European blood so my kids will carry on the tradition, so I am very interested in this subject. Does that make me a racist? I suppose it does, to some pinko who thinks that Africans and Asians are the ones who can date only within their own.

BS, you know I am Swedish, right? I told you that before, I think. Dad is 3/4 and 1/4 Danish. Mum is German/Hungarian/Czech.

Maybe not racist no. But I cannot understand the carry on the tradition attitude from any race.
A lot of people who assume they are from a long line of a particular race can often find that not to be the case. A mate of mine found that he had a secret chinese relative in his family tree, it was covered up in less enlightened times.
