You Are 62% American

Most times you are proud to be an American. Though sometimes the good ole US of A makes you cringe Still, you know there's no place better suited to be your home. You love your freedom and no one's going to take it away from you!

How American Are You?

It's by no means perfect (what human endeavor is?) but it's worth holding on to. Happy Fourth of July, all.

That must be pretty cool to be able to trace your family back to another place - especially France! Do you know when they emigrated?

Actually I do have American relatives (first cousin once removed, I think), but they're descended from the British branch of the family, rather than the other way around. The only non-English forebear I know of is my Irish great-grandmother. :-)

The only Americans that can claim to be decended from native Americans are Native Americans.

My French ancestors emigrated in the late 1800's. My Grandmother's parents, I think--her last name was Guerrinot (like my characters Louise and Amelie in H&tP3 & 4).

My Dad's family came over somewhat earlier, with William Penn -- the Zane family. The author Zane Grey was a distant cousin, and wrote at least a couple of books about the family, besides all his Westerns.
