How did we go from Phil Lesh, to talking about ancestry?

I'll post the oldest picture that I have. Both sets of grandparents were from Southern Italy. Going back further, some of my maternal ancestors were from Albania, which borders Greece.

This is my paternal grandfather, after he came here on the boat. Front row, second from the right, white gloves, both hands in lap, moustache.
