Genealogy / Americans of Polish descent. How many of us are on Polish forums? [216]

Hard to understand that a person's knowledge could take away their ethnicity. And I very well knew of all the different ethnic groups in Poland.

You said it makes them less Polish, which makes no sense.

So, you find us annoying? A shame. There are many good Polish-Americans out there. Even if there is little knowledge of their background it doesn't make them Polish any less. Same with Irish-Americans, Italian-Americans etc.

I think a good amount are on these forums. I'm Polish-American, Polish on my Mother's side. I live here in America and I know other Polish-Americans and they are proud of their roots. I think the reason a lot of us are on here is Polish-Americans are usually proud of their roots more than German-Americans, Italian-Americans, etc. I don't know why but I find it to be true.
