Oddly, Miranda did not mention her one eighth Mexican ancestry. Miranda’s maternal grandfather’s mother, Mary Castimello/Costano/Coseton, was born in Mexico, as were Mary’s parents. The spelling of Mary’s surname varies from record to record.
A picture of Miranda with her mother can be seen here.
A picture of Miranda’s paternal grandmother can be seen here.
Miranda’s maternal grandfather was William Frank Casey (the son of William John Casey and Mary Cecilia Castimello/Costano/Coseton). Miranda’s grandfather William was born in California. Miranda’s great-grandfather William was Irish, born in Brosna, County Kerry. Miranda’s great-grandmother Mary was Mexican, born in Juárez, Chihuahua. A picture of Miranda’s maternal grandfather can be seen here.
Miranda’s maternal grandmother was Lois Ann Core (the daughter of Robert Herman Core and Ida Marie Bishir/Bishop). Lois was born in Oklahoma. Robert was the son of John W. Core and Birdie Harrell. Ida was the daughter of John Bunyan Bishir/Bishop and Effie I. Jones. A picture of Miranda’s maternal grandmother can be seen here.
Miranda’s distant Bishir ancestors were Alsatian German.

@Golden Flaver, you are hilarious. are you good friends with @Follers? That sounds like something Follers would say? Thanks for the funny comment.
she is Italian, Irish, Welsh, Russian and Armenian
Italian, Irish, Welsh are European countries and all people over there are White!! Russian are 40% in Europe and Russians are Slavic people and that are a Indo-European White group of people from
Bosnia
Croatia
Slovenia
Serbia
Montenegro
Russia
Belarus
Latvia
Slovakia and those people are White! they are European and as everybody know where ever Whites live in the whole Arsh they descent from Europe, Whites are Europeans Indigenous people of Europe and Armenia is part in Europe and people from Armenia are White so she is White… no asian in her!
In Russia of Asians are only a couple living on the border with China and Mongolia! that’s all and I asked one of my friends she is Euro-Asian her mum is White and dad is Asian and she said I would always recognise a Euro-Asian and she is not one she is White!
and she looks White!!
Love you Mir you are cool
Take it easy! You want her ass to be white so bad. And Armenian is not white.
hey! I’m Armenian and ALL ARMENIANS ARE WHITE! learn before you speak smart one :P
ESHOO KAK!
I am armenian. But, she dosn’t look it. She looks asian
and you are stupid do you know what asian is have you ever seen their eyes.. she is White!
Look whos talking. Your only saying she’s white for the fact that you read her bio first and now looking for opinionated comments to talk shit to. Just her facial features alone would be similar to Asian ethnic. Really mistakable. I’m sure you where curious yourself and found this site like everyone else.
Don’t be a dick, be a dude.
you’re a dick.. she have nothing Asian in her! she is of Italian,Irish, Welsh, Russian and Slavic background!
all White countries, Italy Ireland ,Welsh, Russia all…! in All these countries are people White, 97% or more only the people moved to these countries are not! and do you see anywhere Japan or China? of course no… so shut the fuck up!!
You’re a dick too
HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHHA
@Me, some Europeans have Asian-ish eyes. It’s not unheard of and it can mean a small percentage of Asian blood that they don’t know about. DNA testing is proving that plenty of “white” people have non-white blood a few generations back.
Our eyes are not that different stupid.
Ooh, I was right! I always thought Miranda was Italian and Armenian! I’m right, but turns out, she has more ethnicities! :)
