Well, I know where I got mine....from my Russian grandparents and great grandparents...all of them were Russian/Polish....mostly Ukranian I think...the pogroms sent them to the UK...Scotland and England.....my dad's mother never even had a birth certificate....they had to run fast and just fled with their children and the clothes on their backs.
