I suspect his paternal grandparents are Lloyd Zobrist and Jeanine Pederson. That would mean he’s also Norwegian and French-Canadian from his grandmother’s side.
->Andera Cali
Was this supposed to be Andrea?
Yes, I must of spelled the name wrong. BTW @bablah out of curiosity do you know if Sylvester Stallone and/or Abigail Breslin have Jewish ancestry???
>Abigail Breslin
