Where are we from, anyway?

The Church is amazing. In the late 70s we members were asked to submit four-generation group sheets to Salt Lake City. Now there's the brand-new Family Tree on the Church's Web site enabling us to easily research who in our family still needs temple ordinances. Because of my desire to find names I have in the process discovered our roots. The following are origins from Mother's maternal side of the family including kings, queens, counts, countesses, sirs, ladies, vikings, etc., etc. I have researched back as far as 310 A.D. My eyes got big and bigger. On my father's side he tells me we're part Cherokee. His lines are English and Dutch.
