    His mother’s maiden name was Lawrence.

    I am about 90% sure his paternal grandparents were Wilfred Whitfield and Dora Gillibrand who married in 1942.

    Change his ethnicity to just Welsh please, both his parents were Welsh and he moved to Australia from Wales/England as an adult to be with his wife. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Whitfield

    Andy may have become australian citizen-wise but that was not his ancestry. He looked like he had Indian as in American Indian or Asian heritage in him by looking at his high cheek bones and almost almond-shaped eyes. Maybe, I need to ask what ancestry his parents had.
