Turns out great-grandpa was lying about being German, he was Polish, which makes sense since he spoke Polish.

Unless the story he told about being from the really really really Eastern part of Germany that's right on the border where everyone speaks Polish turns out to be true, but I don't think that's actually a thing.

A Masurian or a Wend.

Um, some of us were just really lazy latecomers and valour stealers tho thank you.

I saw a Thames documentary about a binman who left England for Australia in the 70s and now could own a nice car and a house and surf all the time on a binman’s salary so your ancestors clearly made the right move.
