Thanks to
Randy Seaver,
Sheri Fenley, and Diane
Haddad), I've been thinking about creating genealogical heritage pie charts for hubby and me. Alas, I don't have enough info to go back to all of our great-great-grandparents, so I had to adapt the idea...for now.
At left is Wally's heritage pie for his great-grandparents. He's 25% UK (2022 update: the
Slatter line is England but now I know the
Shehen was originally from Ireland).
The rest of his great-grands (
Wood, Larimer,
Demarest,
Steiner,
McClure,
Rinehart) were from the US. The one Ohio great-grand might actually be from Pennsylvania, but we're not sure yet.
The second heritage pie, below, is for Sis and me, showing our grandparents' origins.
We're 50% Hungarian (both maternal grandparents were from Hungary), 25% Lithuanian, and 25% Latvian.
I do know the names of my great-grands on the
Farkas and
Schwartz trees, and can be sure (as of 2022) that they were from Hungary, as well.
The Latvian great-grands (Birk) are mostly a mystery, and I know nothing at all about the Lithuanian (Mahler) great-grands (if that's where they were from). At least I now, in 2022, have names to research.
