I have been on a long project to find out my family tree and to see what other bloodlines I have in me, my tree goes way back into the 1600s, is it okay to claim the ancestry lines I found then, for example I found that in the 1600s my family was Ottoman Turks, can I say I have Turkic ancestry? I also have about 1/32 Italian blood, can I say I have Italian ancestry? I know thay we carry the bloods of our ancestors,I know that I have some blood from every nationality I have, I'm just asking if it is more acceptable to say I have ancestry from further back, I don't know if what I say here makes sense, let me know if it doesn't.
