First thought: Tyrolean
Second thought perhaps Scotland

Yeah, after seing the second picture, I'd definitely go with Tyrol (basically German-Italian).

You look pretty generic. I'd say British.....

Edit: No lectures. Whatever your heritage, you are smokin' hot. Best of luck tracking your roots.

I think a little Italian? But something about the nose [:-D] reminds me of Scottish, Irish, maybe

Red indian sqwar
wisconsin Indian tribe
or Algonquian tribe

My guess would be German-Italian Mix.

A bit of Italiano, a bit of Anglo-Saxon, a bit of Japanesa, a bit of Fillipino, a bit of Africano, a bit of Mexicano, a bit of what we call Rojak in Malay! There, hope you're satisfied!

Anyway, how the **** do I know! But I am really wanting to help you, though! Sorry!

Next, please!

I think it would be easier to research your surnames and see what you come up with! DNA would also help you identify your origins. You look to be from european descent, a good blend.

I'd say u can easily belong to the European country... Irish, scotish or probably german...but then u cud be a mixed breed too. Half Irish, half german or french lol maybe ur a mixed version :D Ummm I'd certainly love to know ur ethnicity now that u got us curious lol. do let us know when u choose ur answer ;-)

After i saw ur other pic i am tempted to throw in some italian , irish look into u not german or french look lol but Italian and irish indeed.

Attempts to 'guess' ethnic background through looking at a picture is so not research. Actually, it is anti research, because it can create a bias in your mind, by depending on appearance/ stereotypes (red hair means Irish, etc.).
Using historical records to VERIFY your ancestors, is researching. And really, not as hard as people think. If you are not positive of what your heritage is, one guess is as good as another.
Probably more unbiased than you were looking for, sorry. I just wonder why people use guessing, when they can find facts.

First if available do some research and look into your family records to identify your origin. You can talk to relatives and begin to do some genealogy research online. Second I would recommend a DNA test that can be accomplished with analysis and report from dnatribe.com (see the link below)
