Looking for my princess

Hello, I am an American born and raised in Chicago, USA. I was in the military so I have see many places in the world. Although I have never been to Africa, it has always been a dream of mine to one day visit. I recently decided to begin exploring and seeking my family roots, and where exactly in Africa my family derived from. Who were my ancestors? What were they like? Was my great great-grandfathers great-grandfather great-grandfather a prince, king, or a common man? So many questions! Ever since I first encountered an Ethiopian girl here in my hometown of Chicago I vowed I would one day find my very own Ethiopian princess, so here I am. Looking and hopefully someday finding her living happily ever after.
