[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH was raised Christian (his Jewish grandparents converted) but is 49% Ashkenazi. The grandma who converted escaped the Holocaust and the rest of her family remained Jewish. It’s a big part of his family's identity and history. So for him it would be yes to the race part but no to the religion part. [/quote]
What about his 1. ethnicity and 2. nationality? 
You left those out.[/quote]

1. Mishmash. Mostly Polish I think? His mom (100% Ashkenazi but raised Christian) married a white guy.

2. American. [/quote]
About what percentage of American Jews are part Polish?
Anyone have an idea?[/quote]

NP (not Jewish. Half-Jewish by ancestry DC.) I’d imagine a pretty even split among Ashkenazi between Germans and Poles, with a sprinkling of other Eastern European nationalities, but remember that these borders kept shifting so the village might have been in Poland and then in Russia. DC’s DNA from Dad says tiny percent Siberian Asian group, then Russia, Poland, and Germany per 23andme. Ancestral documents say only Germany and western Russia. [/quote]
