| Enheduanna | posted 21-Jun-2009 11:30pm I have a few cousins who have married people of different races/ethnic backgrounds (in fact, 3 out of my 4 married cousins). My immediately family is pretty white, though. |
| LJD | posted 22-Jun-2009 1:10am My parents were generally speaking of the European white. My dad was German, English, and Irish, My mother was German, English, Cherokee. All my children have married within their race. All my family have married within our race, with the exception of one cousin, who married a Mexican woman.

| bill | posted 22-Jun-2009 6:17am My (white) brother married an Asian (Chinese) woman and they had 2 girls. Otherwise, all white, though. |
| bill | posted 22-Jun-2009 6:22am Come to think of it, "race" is perhaps not defined so well here. I would tend to group all "white" people in the same category. But, I can see from some of the comments that people do make distinctions within that. It's certainly common in the US to distinguish someone's European background. |
| gambler | posted 22-Jun-2009 8:08am Its all pretty mixed to be honest............... between Black & Chinese, my wife is Indian and my son is Black too

| jettles | posted 22-Jun-2009 11:02pm great grand parent was of a different race |
| harry | posted 24-Jun-2009 12:33pm My great-grandmother (on my mother's side) is Native-American. |
| cerealkiller | posted 24-Jun-2009 2:54pm Our sons deviated from the pure Caucasian ancestry. One married someone from Ecuador and the other married someone of white/Mexican mix. |
| cprasky | posted 25-Jun-2009 9:10am My son's maternal grandfather is a black man. My brother is married to a black woman. But, what are you considering as "race"? I am of Jewish descent, my former wife (with whom I am currently living) is not. My father's family is not Jewish, my mother's is.
You would, in a technical sense, have a hard time today finding anyone who really is all of one race to begin with. The Roman Empire pretty much occupied all of Europe at one time. There were many Roman citizens hailing from Africa who were as they used to say, "Black as the ace of spades." So there was quite a bit of intermarriage taking place then. Anyone of European descent today most likely has that admixture in their ancestry from the get-go. And again, if you're considering the Jews as a different "race", consider that there are Jewish cemeteries in Germany and other parts of Europe dating back before the time of Christ. So there were actually Jews in Europe before there were any Christians anywhere... Anyone of Eastern European descent probably has some Mongol blood in their ancestry as well. |
| judgescratch | posted 25-Jun-2009 4:41pm I had a great aunt with a spouse from a different race. |
| coffee5437 | posted 25-Jun-2009 11:15pm I have a huge family but would say it is a reasonably safe guess that we are all one race. |
| cloudhugger | posted 26-Jun-2009 2:53pm My Uncle married a Korean woman. Does that count? We be all white here at the crib. |
| cloudhugger | (reply to gambler) posted 26-Jun-2009 2:55pm In my head, I started singing "I've Got The Whole World...In My Hands..." when I looked at your pics. |
| gambler | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 27-Jun-2009 8:14am Haha Thank you.......Yes I have! |
| Gomezy3k | posted 28-Jun-2009 10:32am Well my birth mother was white and my birthfather was Hispanic (probably a wetback from Mexico) so....I am half Hispanic of some sort. |
| Melf | posted 29-Jun-2009 12:27pm My family is all of one race. Ste went out with a half-Iranian girl last year, that's about as diverse as we get. I can assure you it's entirely unintentional. |
| meowry | posted 3-Nov-2009 10:10am My immediate family is all white. But I have a distant cousin (of no blood relation) who married a half-Japanese woman. |

Going back another generation from my grandparents and we're ethnically mixed (white British and Gypsy/Roma), if not racially.
