I'm my family genealogist and have traced some lines back 40 generations so I have a good idea. In order of descent:

Saxon English (by far), Norman English/French, Dutch, Czech, Scots, German, Swedish, Welsh, and Norwegian. Others may include Polish, Italian, and Roman (if Cole Hen was Roman).

I'm lucky to know as much as I do thanks to some great work done mostly by others. Of all my ancestors, the one that amuses me most is Bjorn the Loud, given that name for his prodigious ability to fart with gusto.

As previously stated:
Black
Cherokee

Irish (County Kilkenny)

I have always found it interesting that most White People always know the exact fractions of their ethnicity. The Black people I know don't do that even though most of us have some other nationality mixed in as well.

I knew there was a reason I liked you. Our Irish ancestry came from Kilkenny also. My Uncle used to say it was County Cork, but Gramps set him straight.

Oh jeez, now I have to stop having lusty thoughts about you, as we are probably related.

Far as I know myself, my background stems from Welsh / Irish roots.

I've look at my family tree and it goes back to the 1500's. All British as I saw, so unless there were people who were of a different race who got into my family tree before 1500, then I'm pure British.

(Something like 99% English and 1% scottish).

I'm a mix of at least two different slave-lines. Wahoo, I'm my own ethnicity!

My great great grandma was Italian. Apparently a child slave there? My nan says there were bad things going on there and has hinted that there were child slaves in Italy? Late 1800's that would be. My great great grandma was brought from Italy to England by my great great grandad.

And I think that's about it. Perhaps some Irish. But mostly English.
