Genealogy / How Polish am I? What is the correct formula? [58]
Merged: Florjańczyk. Am I Polish even though that I might have other ethnicities mixed in?
Ok. So basically, my great grandmother's maiden name was Florjańczyk, her whole family was from Poland. Her son is my grandpa, who's last name is Sprouse. (English name) That was my moms maiden name, and now my last name is- err, let's keep that private! But anyways. Is it safe and accurate to say that I am Polish, even though that I might have other ethnicities mixed in? (my moms side would be English/Polish, my dad's French/German) Whenever I ask questions to my family members though, they always tell me that I'm just Polish. I guess, maybe it's because we just identify more with Poland? This is for something I have to fill out. I know it might be a stupid question but I just want to make sure it would be ok to label myself also as Polish from now on.
