English, English, English, English (etc) in my family, in fact, no one was born north of the Wash. From bottom left I have relatives from Cornwall, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire, Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk & Essex. Husband's lot only a little more exotic, half Welsh, and the rest include some Jewish blood and the likelihood, though can't get any info to prove it, of Irish blood too. nell
