Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 3 hours ago, Rye Miles #13621 said: Early 1800’s my great grandparents in Italy, I’m sure it goes way back but that’s the people I am aware of. About half of Mom's family came from the Vaudois (SP?) Valley region up where Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and France get together. When they came to this country in the 1840s they were declared to be Italian...but the lines up there were / are pretty fuzzy. The rest of her family are solidly English back to the dawn of time (or so Grandma told me). Dad's folks were Scottish with some Irish, English, Welsh, and Walloon mixed in for flavor. Hi mother's family were Welsh and Walloon (Owens, Owain, and Owan). His family hit he Americas near the Massanutten Area of Virginia and about half of them had moved westinto Kenyicky, tennessee, Missouri, and even further within 20 years or so. We really became "westerners" pretty early and got a lot of American history running through our background.....some good, some bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Cain turned out to be a bad guy...) So, the question is - who did the boys marry~? I have asked a couple of Deacons and the Priest in my church (Catholic) that exact same question, I've never received an answer that makes sense.

It is not until Genesis 6 when the Nephilim introduce new genetics into mankind and relieve the human race of all of the inbreeding. At least that’s how I read it. Do I believe it? Not really.

The Blarney Kid Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 While stationed in Scotland I had my family named traced. They found out I was originally clan McPhee. Then got in a war on the losing side. Half the clan went to the Western Isles, the other half went to southern Ireland and built a castle. They called it Blarney. That's how I got my alias. I figure I'm about 500th in line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
