I was born in Houston, Texas. But, I was raised from the age of two in Los Angeles. I've been doing some research on the net about my own ancestry. It looks like both sides of my family may have been in the Southern US, way back in the 1600's.
Here's a photo I found online of my Great Grandmother and Great Grandfather taken in 1906 in Gunsight, Texas:

I guess what I'm saying is, if anyone wants to see some real rednecks, I've got a few relatives they wouldn't believe.
