Answer 1

Norwegian/ Norse, part Viking/?

Answer 2

idk, you look all American to me.

Answer 3

I don't think there's really any way to tell from a picture. You really look pretty Finnish to me and German makes sense, but I couldn't begin to guess the last quarter, sorry.

Do you know at least the last name of the 4th grandparent? It is usually relatively easy to trace country of origin in that case. If you have more than that you can generally find a lot of family history stuff with genealogy searches.

maybe some kind of Irish/celtic cause of the red hair but I'm 1/2Finnish and that whole side of the family has red hair?

Answer 4

You might be part Russian; you also might be part French; to be honest though, what makes it very difficult is the fact that the only distinctive features you seem to have are either Germanic, or Finnish (plus the fact that I had to look Finnish people up, since I didn't know what they looked like)

Answer 5

definitely celtic. i'd say the point of your chin is as impish as an irish leprechaun's!

Answer 6

looks either a little swedish or polish /

Answer 7

Exactly how the h**l are we supposed to know???

You can't ask your parents????

Answer 8

how am i suppose to know. u got beautiful nose.

Answer 9

if you think Dutch then i would definaley guess Dutch because you do look Dutch!

Answer 10

you can't really tell just by looking at someone, especially when it comes to merely 1/4of their heritage which often has little if any affect in appearance. ask your relatives.

Answer 11

Might of been an eskimo,  Lapp or european.

Answer 12

thats a hard one, you have nice high cheek bones, maybe some indian some where down the line,  your hair has a slight reddish tint, maybe some irish, so very hard to say.

Answer 13

Yeah, having a picture of yourself isn't a great clue.  Post a picture of the grandparent whose ethnicity you don't know and maybe people could take an educated guess.

Your facial structure, eyes, and hair look like many Scottish women I've met.  Then again, they also look like many Northern European women.  And the Vikings invaded Scotland many times, so....no clue.

Answer 14

german or english

Answer 15

Hehe, we can only guess, since we don't know what ethnicity everyone in your family is.

You look like you could possibly have Swedish, English, Welsh, or any number of European countries in your background.
