Good American Mongrel with some Celtic blood.
I get my Celtic ancestry from my mother's side of the family. Mother, grandfather and great grandmother belonged to the long second toe club, along with the EEEE club. They all came from Northern Ireland. Both my mother and great grandmother had real short and wide feet. I inherited the narrow foot from my father "B" and the short from my mother "8" on a 6'1" male. My three inner toes are even, as were my father's and both grandfathers. My father's side came to America between 1620 and 1650 for the most part with some German and Irish mixed in to a bunch of English peoples. Family lore (not documented) is may patrilineal will go back to Clan Lamont (Brown(e).) Another interesting thing in our family is we were all born carrot tops. Mine was flaming red until puberty. Then it changed to all black. Now mostly salt and pepper with a little red here and there.
---- Steve
