Genealogy / Was my moms family (Kowalsky) Russian or Polish? [35]
He's talking about ethnicity not nationality (Americans are divided by ethnicity such as African america, Indian Americans etc.)
Now I'm no expert but it is very possible that their is Polish somewhere there-even today there are many Poles living on the borderland regions of Belarus and Lithuania. Try asking your family members and doing some research etc.
But if it bothers you that much you can always do a genealogy test.
Neither...you are American.
