'Scharf' was what the overworked clerk at immigration wrote on my great-great grandfathers papers because he couldn't understand the full Russian name (apparently, he had caught a bad cold on the way over). <br>
<br>But that's not the whole story either. I get my last name from my step father. I have absolutely no Russian in me at all. I am actually Irish & Chippewa Indian on my biological fathers side and Italian and English on my mothers. (and, no I don't speak Chippewa either). </div>
