I know the parents of my great grand mother came from Ireland from the Wicklow area. On my grand dad's side is english and german. I am in southern PA. Don't know if this map is completely accurate for PA since there is a lot of dutch ancestry also in my area of PA.

I think they come from all over Europe... Ashkenazi from Germany/Northern Europe, and Sephardic from Southern Europe? Also, Russia/Central Europe.
I know that there is a very large amount of Jewish ancestors in America so what do they fall under, German?
LOL, with Operation Paper Clip, you might be right. And England took us back after we declared independence, by stealth.
Maybe they (Germans) won the war after all!
Yes, I didn't know that either. And I thought the Dutch had more influence than what is shown. They started New York, I believe.
Interesting to note that the largest ancestry group was of German decent (some 50 million).
