Skeet Ulrich is an American actor. He is known for his roles in the film Scream and the shows Riverdale and Jericho, among many other projects.

He was born Bryan Ray Trout. His mother Carolyn first re-married to D. K. Ulrich, a NASCAR driver and team owner. His uncle (mother’s brother) is Ricky Rudd, who is also a NASCAR driver, and is nicknamed “The Rooster.” Skeet was raised in North Carolina.

Skeet has two children with his former wife, English actress Georgina Cates.

Skeet’s patrilineal line can be traced to Johann Wendel Georg Traut, who was born, c. 1689, in Kleinfischlingen, Electoral Palatinate, Holy Roman Empire, which is now in Südliche Weinstraße, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany.

Skeet’s paternal grandfather was Valery Jones Trout, Sr. (the son of Phillip Taylor Trout and Bessie T. Hahn). Valery was born in Virginia. Phillip was the son of Joseph Jacob Miller Trout and Mary Magdalene Etzler. Bessie was the daughter of James H. Hahn and Emma R. McCurdy.

Skeet’s paternal grandmother was Hazelgene “Gene” Durand (the daughter of Eugene Durand and Hazel Pemberton Hanecy). Hazelgene was born in Illinois. Skeet’s great-grandfather Eugene was the son of Elliott Durand, whose father was French, and of Helen Eugenia Heath. Skeet’s great-grandmother Hazel was the daughter of Elbridge Hanecy and Sara Bradwell Barton.

Skeet’s maternal grandfather was Alvin Ray Rudd, Sr. (the son of Walter Scott Rudd and Pearl Verdie/Vertie Harrell). Alvin was born in Virginia, and was president of Al Rudd Auto Parts. Walter was the son of William Stockton Rudd and Sarah Virginia Pettit. Pearl was the daughter of Walter Riddick Harrell and Julia Anna Corstaphney.

Skeet’s maternal grandmother was Margaret Ellen McMannen (the daughter of John Archibald McMannen III and Lula Leah Byrd). Margaret was born in North Carolina. John was the son of John Archibald McMannen, Jr. and Ella Bertha Wilbon. Lula was the daughter of Richard Monroe Byrd and Martha A. Stephenson.

    Can’t believe you traced someone’s ancestry to the Holy Roman Empire. That’s dedication.

    What happened to him? Does he even act anymore?

  3. noneofyourbusiness says:

    He kind of does look like Johnny Depp, but an “ugly” version of Johnny. He looks like he has some Mongoloid heritage, his eyes are slightly Asiastic.

    • J.J. says:

      whats your ethnicity and nationality Andrew?

      • andrew says:

        Not your business

        • J.J. says:

          LOL! it’s an ethnicity based site and you’re one of the main users, you know my ethnicity and nationality and yet you refuse to tell me yours, how sad

          • andrew says:

            sad..yes..im white btw

          • J.J. says:

            white…wow, that narrows down your ethnicity to every country in Europe and the middle east, glad we cleared that up

          • follers says:

            He could even be Mexican or Finnish.

          • J.J. says:

            @follers
            Mexican isn’t an ethnicity, if he’s Mexican by nationality or born to Mexican parents his ethnicity would most likely be Spanish or mestizo, and finland is a country in Europe, I don’t get what point you’re trying to make

          • Alice says:

            What’s your ethnicity J.J.? I know you live in Australia like me but don’t know your background.

          • andrew says:

            I’m European.

          • J.J. says:

            @alice
            my ethnicity is the same as Andrew’s, European

          • Alice says:

            I’m European as well but I’ll be more definitive. I’m Irish.

          • J.J. says:

            I’m 2nd generation Australian, mums parents are from malta, dads parents are from Portugal, and if you trace back on the maltese side there’s a bit of irish which makes me 1/32nd irish, that’s as detailed as I could go

          • ashash says:

            Is “European” an ethnicity? I thought an ethnicity was like Irish, Turkish, Russian, French, Italian, Romanian, Serbian, German, Japanese, Chechen, Armenian, Hungarian, Ashkenazi, Chinese, etc.? You know, stuff like that.

          • J.J. says:

            european can be classified as an ancestry/ethnicity since it’s a geographical location however it is just not as specific as naming the particular country/region

          • andrew says:

            Maltese are borderline even though they use Euro as money. Language isnt Indo-European, btw they speak Italian and English too

          • J.J. says:

            malta is definitely European as they’re not African or Asian, they’re virtually in the middle of the Mediterranean and are defined as semitic people because for some ridiculous reason the language is classified as semitic despite the fact it is predominately Italian (52%) and only 32% Arabic with the rest being mixtures of English and French. once upon a time Italian was the most spoken language.

      Johnny Depp looks better than this clown.
