Chris has said:

My dad is a Cuban refugee. Lots of my family have told me stories about how they wept when they boarded American planes in the 60s and [stewardesses] gave them warm bottles of milk for their babies. They say they’d never known such kindness. My dad is a nuclear engineer now. #migrants

Chris’s maternal grandfather was Edward R. Market/Markert (the son of Walter A. Markert and Helen Lasiewski/Losiewski). Edward was born in New Jersey. Walter was born in New Jersey, and possibly was the son of Anthony Market, who was German, and Stella, who was Polish. Helen was born in New Jersey, to Polish parents, Jan Piotr “John” Lasiewski/Losiewski and Katarzyna “Catherine.”

Chris’s maternal grandmother was named Hannelore Wilma Merchel. Hannelore was a German emigrant, from Essen.
