Where do I have descent from in Europe?

Posted at: 2015-06-30 
I am 6ft, I have super dark brown hair and really brown eyes, like nearly black. I am olive skinned, my mother is the same dark brown, brown eyes and olive skinned and my dad is dark brown but has green eyes, my dad said his grandfather's mother was from Hungary, is it possible I have European in me? Like hotter regions likes Portugal/Spain/Romania/Hungary?

there's no way to tell. You have 47 bloodlines

With that colouring, pretty much anywhere. I've seen that colouring among Irish people whose families have lived in Ireland for hundreds of years.

If your father says you have some Hungarian in you then that is probably true.

The darker skin tone could mean you have a bit of Turk in you or Gypsy, very common here in Hungary for people to be mixed with those 2.

I live in Hungary and see people of all skin tones, hair and eye colors.

Who can really say how far back a person's DNA will show up in their looks.

Our son is half Hungarian, 1/4th Ruysn, 1/8th German and equally 1/16th of English and Mohawk Indian.

He is 6'3' tall slim pale as a ghost with green eyes and red hair.

He looks allot like his 100% HU granny when she was young.

My husband can trace back his family in HU over 1,000 years, he is average height with green/brown eyes and dark brown hair, several of his family have curly red hair and some have straight blonde hair.

His dad probably had a bit of Turk in him because he was short and had very dark hair.

They have documents proving they have all been in HU for the 1,000 plus years, records in the National archives etc. Like I said who can say for sure what the DNA will show.

I am tall and very slim and pale with light hair and brown eyes, my 4 siblings all took after the one Native American relation while I look very Slavic.

Based on ancestry of 5 generations back and that of only one side, is not a good way to determine if you have European looks. Furthermore Hungarians are generally light coloured and blondish but that too can't be taken for granted.

You have to examine both sides of your ancestors. However if you like to feel European, by all means do, but it is best to have evidence of what you claim.

Maybe from the Dinaric Alps. They are on average 185cm tall. Southern you go, the darker people are.

Since India was a colony of England i would also check that if you are British

You might have some Mediterranean ancestry like Spain, Italy, Greece, perhaps Cyprus, Malta or Turkey even i don't know.
