    Megan’s father is also of Scots-Irish (Northern Irish), Welsh, remote Dutch, and remote German descent. I suggest to remove American as her ethnicity because it is a nationality.

    Calvin, Sr. was the son of Thomas Lee Calhoun Young and Sonora “Nora” Bradshaw. Sybil was the daughter of Christopher Columbus Horn and Mary Nancy Idella Courtney.

    Sidney was the son of Douglas Bisland McCaleb and Louisa Witherspoon Robson. Anna was the daughter of Thornton Hardy Farrar and Ella Cornelia “Hallie” Ford.
