I do presume I'm pure-blooded Caucasian and Prussian, after looking into the history. These people were comprised of both 'German' and 'Polish' blood and that is what my parents represent. Furthermore, I know I have Prussian ethnicity through my father's mother. And it seems "pure-blooded" Prussian ethnic identity is rare, due to repeated extermination attempts against the Prussian people by who we now refer to as 'Germans'. It fits. It also explains why my grandparents didn't instill a great deal of pride into my father, in order to become Amerikan, due to the 'expired' nature of the Prussian ethnic identity. These people are/were dispersed down to the last man/woman/child.

Regardless, I am Amerikan and consider this my complete social identity. I was born & raised (at least 3rd generation) in the US.

Furthermore, it seems my family name is derived from Królewiec/Königsberg/Kaliningrad…
