…I’m half Armenian and half German and Irish. My biological dad was Armenian. My last name is Lopez and I have a darker complexion, which throws people for a loop. My mother’s first husband is Mexican. That’s where I got Lopez. I grew up eating Mexican food at home, but he was very American. He didn’t grow up in Mexico or speak Spanish.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Through his mother, he has considerable Colonial American roots.<\/p>\n

Preston was born in Illinois, the son of Amory Bryan McCartney and Margaret Bigger, who were born in Northern Ireland, with Amory being from Belfast and Margaret from Donnegore, Antrim.
