    Yeah she is White “Leanna1991″ but this is a website about ETHNIC BACKGROUND not just her race BUT HER CULTURAL HERITAGE.

    She’s only Greek, Italian, and Scottish. Her mom’s mom was Italian and her mom’s dad was Scottish. It’s on Wikipedia.org and on Wargs. It doesn’t say anything about England/English on there, It only has Greece, Scotland, and Italy on Wargs.com

    that wargs page is a good reference but is limited after six generations. it appears that some of her ancestors had lived in Maine USA for many generations therefore it is hard to identify their previous origins. Ill put her as Greek, Scottish, Italian as those are the only three we can be certain of at the moment.
