Yankee Or Dixie?

They rated me like this 88% (Dixie). Did you have any Confederate ancestors?

Re: Yankee Or Dixie?
This is definitely where the
Great Lakes meet the South, as the national media found out in the last couple of weeks! 68% Dixie here. (Can definitely be more or less depending on to whom I'm selling.)

Most of my answers were leaning toward the Great Lakes area. I grew up in Montana, and I have family in New England, but I don't know of any Great Lakes influences. |

Kind of right, I'm an Italian Hillbilly! My dad is (was) a pure backwoods Georgia boy, my Mother is pure Italian.
