I was always aware of my blood line from a little tiny child, my family from China, well Hong Kong, from a child they come visit us!! Not only that, we also know our family in Africa from Slavery, so we know everything about our family from Slavery they were free slave. My great great grandmother was so beautiful that the slave master owner l married her and gave her and the family freedom. As for the Chinese side of the family, the Chinese have been in Jamaica 🇯🇲 for over 250 years so on my Dad side somewhere they married into the family.
My dad, European and Cherokee Native American
My mom, Irish
My maiden last name is Ratcliff, does anyone know if that stems from the UK? I kind of think it does!!
European mix with Native American is super cool!
Thank you! My dad was one cool dude lol
Radcliffe is a common surname here in the UK
I know there are a few variations, maybe I’m a distant relative lol I know there’s some UK connection somewhere!!! Just haven’t dug back deep enough
I have Chinese in my blood, my family from Hong Kong. I won’t go into my family history, but Chinese Immigrated into Jamaica 🇯🇲 or over 200 years now seeking or a better life. I have family in Africa that wasn’t slaves as my great great grandmother as so beautiful that the slave owner married her so my family in Africa was all free from Slavery. That is why unlike most black people we know our family history and still have contacts with our family in Africa. Anyway I won’t go on.
Surprised, more confused: They tell me I have all of this in me! Choctaw Tribe, West Africa, Nigerian, Sierra Leone, East Africa, Kenyan, Central Africa, Europe, North and West Europe, Middle East.
What the heck was going on???? 🙂
