Japanese Ancestry
Japanese ancestry via Europe.?

Alright, so, both of my grandparents who though are both of western European ancestry both look quite asian. Neither of them are taller than 5’6 they both have almond eyes and grandfather has kind of a hook nose and serious bowlegs which supposedly are common amongst Japanese people. Is there a possible Japanese or asian link to my ethnic chain?

I think you’re using some serious generalizations. That said, over 1000s of years, Europeans have definite Asian ancestors. I have the almond eyes, albeit blue. If you look at different genetic haplogroups, you’ll see how ethnic groups traveled and intermingled over the eons.

However, that said, there was Japanese immigration to Europe in the mid/late 1800s.

Your English Ancestry: A Guide for North Americans was the first book to provide a logical research routine for family historians based in North America. Since the first edition of Your English Ancestry was published in 1993, genealogy has become even more popular, the Internet has become an important tool for many researchers, and there have been significant changes in local government and in the storage of major records in England. These changes are reflected in this new edition of Your English Ancestry. It contains additional detail on many records, a new chapter introducing early English research (before 1730), and a greatly expanded bibliography. For every type of record — civil registration, census, church records, probate, occupation, and local administration — there are clear explanations of availability and access. Each chapter concludes with a step-by-step summary
