I mean, my dad's family came from Lithuania. They changed their name from Kuznets in 1905. At some point they were blacksmiths. My mom's family came from Halychyna in Ukraine. I have no idea what they did. That's about all I know.

I like to think that my ancestors were nothing and nobody. Random boring peasants with no special talents or wealth. Except for Genghis Khan, of course. But he's everyone's ancestor.
