Most recent was my great great grandparents, who came right after WWI, from Germany.

At the time of WWII they still had relatives that they communicated with in Germany. In order to avoid being drafted intothe European theater and forced to fight the Germans, mygrandpa volunteered for the Navy, in order to fight Japan rather than Germany.

I'm not sure, but I think my maternal grandfather's parents emigrated from Germany shortly after World War I.

i think my maternal great-grandmother is the most recent if you go by years.  she immigrated during the 1930s from germany.

Great grandmother and grandfather both came from Denmark separately.  I'm not sure when though.  They were both young adults, so probably around the 1910s or so.

I think it's my great-great-great-great grandparents from both sides of the family when they decided to flee Europe during WWI.

One of my grandparents was being drafted into the Russian army so he cut off his big toe to escape it. sillydood;


Does your family age faster than usual? Or are they rabbits?
