Heh. I have sufficiently good genealogical data (back to France and England, including legitimate DAR eligibility, on my Mother's side) that I haven't even read all of it. (My stepmom has done all the work on my father's side, where German is a lot closer). Although it always weirds me out that the only people who can correctly spell my last name without prompting are Texan or English.
(Seriously - when I go to the UK and hand them my US passport, the nice people with Her Majesty's Customs Service say 'Welcome home, Mr <lastname>')
