My grand parents were from four nationalities, which made me a real hybrid.
Who said mongrel? Shame. 
One of them came from French Canada. Someone dug up several hundred family photos including several identified as being in that family.
There were three photos of girls wearing really quaint dresses, clearly First Communion dresses. I recently encountered a former neighbor in the Snow Zone who married a man from Quebec. I sent her the three photos and he said, yes, those were traditional Quebec Communion dresses.
I was sitting here thinking. That family had my grandma and her two sisters. We will never know but I theorize it is possible those girls were my grandma and her two sisters. Even as little girls, the difference in their appearances is similar to the differences as adults.
