she had 2 grandparents of Spanish descent (and Alsatian ancestry too down the line), so Leven definitely has more than 1/32 Spanish ancestry
Leven is likely related to this man: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_Gil_Y%27Barbo
I think her Alsatian ancestors were ethnic Germans: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Lambre-15
She really looks like Daryl Hannah
Yeah linda, but she’s obviusly younger and prettier.
*kinda
Daryl Hannah is from a different generation so of course Leven Rambin is younger, in fact a lot younger but a young Daryl Hannah was prettier than Leven Rambin.
