Omschrijving

This is the story of the search for a grandfather whose origin had been shrouded in mystery for decades. As a man, he was tall, dark brown-copper skinned, and blue-eyed. He always stood out in a crowd but his presence wasn't just of strength but also jovial and kind. Yet, who were this man's parents? Where did he come from? What was the story of his ancestors? A genetic test revealed that his daughter had Pacific Islander, Japanese, Chinese, South Asian, and Khoisan ethnic background in her besides what her mother's heritage was. This raised a lot more questions. The author looked very deeply into this, gathering historical and genealogical records over a period of a decade. There were lots of questions along the way. First, the question is answered whether Romani (aka "Gypsy") was where the South Asian ancestry came from. How was the Cape Colony a significant part of their history? Where did the East Asian ancestry come from? How did Japanese get introduced to the family? Considering that it showed her to be a quarter Pacific Islander, where did this come from and how did it happen? The reader will find out what Harry Brumfiel's real surname was. They'll discover adventures that span hundreds of years of generations.  Even those not related will find this non-fiction historical gathering intriguing and worth reading. After reading this, the reader will feel like they have become a part of the family.
