Is there a certain part of Poland where freckles come from? Like baltic sea or eastern part or western etc. I met a polish immigrant with freckles, this girl i know parents were born in Poland and her mom has freckles, and my parents wernt born there but i am Polish descent with freckles so just wondering if there is a certain part of Poland where freckles are common since it is not a common Polish feature.

Why do you think that freckles are a result of living in a certain region of Poland? Most likely, you just inherited the gene from either side of your family.

Maybe your grandma's sister had a natural, fire engine red hair and freckles? :)

well since it's not a common Polish characteristic, i thought maybe it was just common in a certain area of Poland.
kind of like how some Russians have asian features the more you go south east, you know?
but maybe not, maybe freckled Poles are just scattered all over Poland.

freckles are definitely a euro thing.. most americans, unless of irish descent, are rather freckles.
