An aunt used to claim that I could be a member of the DAR (daughters of the American revolution). I think this may be possible because most of my family can be traced back quite some distance. However, we did not come on the Mayflower. Most of us were indentured servants or outright undesirables sentenced to the penal colonies in Georgia. When the Revolution came along, some of us fought in it because we liked a good brawl. After that we headed to Kentucky and the Carolinas and became moonshiners. No vikings need apply.
PS We are Scotch/Irish/Welsh. You can tell by our last names and I suppose by our DNA.
