I had run across Norse names in some unverified family trees that connected with mine way back in time, but it never occurred to me I'd end up with such a high percentage. It's a mystery to me, as I have a strong aversion to seafood and Ingmar Bergman films and I'm anything but a tall blonde...

I love this stuff--my tree, your tree, whatever. All fascinating.
funny! I am just embarking on a Bergman fest after having seen After the Wedding which is a Danish, Bergman-like contemporary film. Every Scandinavian film I've seen this year has been wonderful, that's why I decided to go through the Bergman canon, the better ones anyway. But that doesn't make me think that I am Scandinavian in any major way though some may be thrown in there since I am from the upper midwest where lots of Scandinavian farmers settled.
