Genealogy / 20 y/o female (pics & summary) trying to clarify my polish heritage [26]
My name is Nikki. I am a 20 year old college student, born and raised in Florida (my parents moved from upstate new york after they married). and to this day when people ask me what ethnicity i am, i feel that i am not completely sure how to answer. it may sound stupid, but it is something that has been bothering me for a while now. unfortunately, i don't know much about my heritage, but i would really like to know where i came from and who i truly am. if anyone could help guide me or give me some insight into this at all, i would greatly appreciate it!
so... my last name is francz. from what i know my father's mother, esther, is about 'as polish as they come' She has blonde hair, light blue eyes, a round, but prominent face, and she is fluent as well). From what I know, that whole side of the family is polish... I know my great grandfather's name was Boris, his wife, Helen... My father says when he was younger he remembers his grandfather saying/yelling something to his wife like "Cheehaw, Helen" and "Yasuse Coohana?" (I Know this probably sounds ridiculous because the spelling is completely off and i couldn't figure it out on an online translator.) The only reason i know that is because we jokingly say it to each other from time to time. Sadly, thats all I know about my father's side.
My father is about 5'11, thin, but lean, He has fair skin, blond hair, blue eyes, higher cheekbones, and a round but prominent face.
My mother is part french and I believe 1/8 native american. her great or great-great-grandmother was Native Indian. Most of her family comes from areas in Canada and upstate New York, She has dark brown hair and brown eyes, and olive skin, and is around 5'7, with an average/lean frame.
As for me, I figured those 4 pictures were efficient in showing certain feautures and characteristics i possess. I'm around 5'4, smaller frame... I don't know if any of this matters but i figured i'd include it any way. As silly as it might seem to some, it is something have been wanting to get more insight into for a while now.
Thank you to whoever is able to help me figure this out!!
Sincerely, Nikki
