and is this why you were drawn to the Valkyrie?

Surnames of Viking descendants

As reported in 2019: The Viking-based clues to watch out for in your surname are as follows…

    Names ending in ‘sen’ or ‘son’
    Roger/s, Rogerson, Rendall
    Names which contain a nod to personal characteristics, such as ‘Love’, ‘Short’, ‘Tall’, ‘Wise’, ‘Long’, ‘Good’ (e.g. Goodman).
    Scottish surnames (e.g. McLeod, McIvor, McAvoy, McAulay)
    Irish surnames (e.g. Doyle, McDowell, MacAuliffe)
    Scandinavian surnames (e.g. Flett, Scarth, Linklater, Heddle, Halcro)

I am sort of a Hinze 57 type.  But mostly Irish/Scott/Welsh plus some northern Europe type.  So maybe some Viking in there somewhere.

I've been informed that I'm likely a cross between a bull-bitch and a barb wire fence.

My brother and I have an pronounced tendon from ring finger down to the wrist,
Which is known as Viking Hand.

I have relatives that are really into the genealogy thing.   I'm not.

A very few care now and in a hundred years no one will give a damn about me or what I was or where I came from, I'm just fine with that.   

My interest and love of Valkyries has nothing to do with my past heritage or where they came from.   I'm thinking it has a lot more to do with that wild hair growing on my butt.  Wink

Too much info there Ron!  My sister is big into genealogy and has found a tie to a Scottish castle, I’m still trying to wrangle an invitation, but recently have started to consider squatting as an alternative!
