Now, what the hell happened here. I start a post about my Irish heritage. Next thing I know I'm flinging Polish food all the way to Texas. ? Has anyone done any genealogy research. ? My husband, whose family goes way back in America, 1700s, found he is related to such far flung personages as Pretty Boy Floyd and Laura Ingalls Wilder . He went so far as to send a blood sample, and was able to see all the areas that match up chromosomally(is this a word?) I find it fascinating. He discovered there's a touch of Irish in there, not enough to qualify as far as I'm concerned.

A little on my dad's side. They go back to being here before the revolution and settling on a land grant in S.C. along Bullock Creek. Traced them back to a port in England. That was as far as I got. Mom's side is a mystery past two generations. Somebody is hiding something. As far as the food comments, haven't you learned by now, men only care about two things not related to immediate survival.

I was thwarted by several Polish Beauties, they were Catholic and serious about it. I wasn't in their lives when they matured and I had latched on to a beautiful, dark haired, Irish-German woman and outlasted all of her other suiters. She married me out of pity.

Well I'm sorry to hear you've been suffering, life certainly has a way of bringing us to our knees sometimes.


Suffering is a good thing. It builds empathy and patience among other things.

"We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God, who are called according to his purpose."

Now speaking of geneology, before I married, I carried the rather unfortunate surname of Habuda. There are very few Habuda's in the US, was once told it sounded Ukranian. Only got as far back as my grandfather's passage through Ellis Island@ 1915


Habuda sounds like a Hungarian or Bulgarian name.

Well good for you,, I make no such claim. And I'm not really buying that excuse. You were thwarted by a Polish beauty in your youth, and revel in the fact that she got dumpy, admit it.


I was going to say that. As I mentioned, with my admixture of mostly Scottish with some Irish, Scandinavian, Spanish and Black, I might be a poster child for race-mixing. Actually, ethnicity mixing would be more appropriate.
My wife is French/German/Cherokee.
