You are most likely descended from a Viking who colonized Ireland and then returned home with an Irish wife. My surname originates from an Irish name that means VikingβοΈβοΈ
According to family legends, the Viking boats stopped there since Ireland had the best whiskey. Archeological evidence from battle sites across the world have shown there were more than a few Irish in the Viking ships sailing from southern Norway and Denmark.
Oh no! Maybe Iβm really Norwegian, not Irish, which would be fine since my husband was half Norwegian (Munson) and we spent many Friday nights at the Sons of Norway Lodge enjoying their famous all-you can eat fish boils.
