My ancestors came mostly from Ireland. I'm not sure around what time period. I think my great-great-great (maybe another great?) Grandmother was the first to come over. Her name was Missouri something...(don't know her last name.) There's Irish on both my mom's and dad's side. We don't know much else about my dad's side, because his father was raised in an orphanage. We do know that my last name should actually be McArthur, but that's a really long story. Allow me to sum it up: My Grandpa (in the orphanage) had always been told his last name was what my last name is now. When he grew up, he found out that was actually his mom's last name, and his dad's last name was McArthur. He changed his name, but my dad kept his.
So yeah. I'm (mostly) Irish...and proud of it.
