The theory goes, that surnames often come from the job of your ancestors.
What on earth did "Dickinson" do?!

My English friend was shocked to find out that his ancestors came from Transylvania.
Now he can’t even look at himself in the mirror.

I asked the genie to revive one of my oldest ancestors, to see what life was like when they were around.
Let's just say, it was a pretty fishy chat.

The Smiths were proud of their family tradition. Their ancestors had come to America on the Mayflower and their descendants included senators and Wall Street wizards.
They decided to compile a family history, a legacy for their children and grandchildren.
They hired a fine author.
Only one problem arose, how to handle great-uncle George, the criminal, who was executed in the electric chair.
The author said he could handle the story tactfully.
The book appeared.
It said, “Great-uncle George occupied a chair of applied electronics at an important government institution, was attached to his position by the strongest of ties, and his death came as a great shock.”

Who was first in Transylvania?
Thousands of years ago, the ancestor of the Hungarians Attila the Hun came to Transylvania.
He saw a beautiful lake, left his gilded armor, his Damascus sword and his white stallion on the shore and went for a swim.
When he got out of the lake - armor was gone, sword was gone and the horse was nowhere to be found.
Now you tell me - who were the first in Transylvania, Romanians or Hungarians?
