Stralian Born! Norf Melb in fact, but of Greek Heritage on both sides. My dad actually was a Commonwealth Games Gold Medalist for Australia and an Olympian. He was personally inducted into the Greek Australian Sporting Hall Of Fame by no other than John Howard our PM.
How's that! Chris |

My grandma done all the hard work about a year ago as far as tracing back the family tree, she sent me the paperwork and I can trace my father's bloodline all the way back to a convict on the first fleet.

Both my parents families originated in Scotland , and both sides were traced back to Queensland in the mid and late 1800's. both my older brother and I were born in Brisbane , and my half brother was born in syd( So he is a steenking cocokroach) . My dads family used to own a castle in scotland way back when, but is now owned by the country in trust for our family or something! My step dads family still owns a castle over there somwhere !
Ps. dont mess with me or I'll drop me bundy and raise me kilt at ya ! :

Mums a Samoan (not of the fresh variety) and Dads full European/Kiwi. I have a little French, Scottish & German blood in me too. So, overall, I'm a half-cast mongrel. :

Born at Frankston Hospital.
Mum's from England, can trace her family to middle eastern immigrants about 200 years ago. Dad's also from England, can trace his family back to 1066, village near Birmingham with old spelling of surname 'Swynnerton' Mum came over here with her family on the '5 pound immigrant' thingy back in the 60's, dad followed her out on his own, they got married here and when her parents went back, they stayed... Good thing is I get both passports, so can go over there indefinitely and come and go as I please without visas.. |
