I'm an Iowan from USA. My 6' son is the shortest male in our entire extended family. German ancestors.

If it's not too personal, is your wife of German extraction too?

She's Italian and 5'3"

Three sons - 6', 6'3" and 6'4"

Sounds like your line is secure for another few generations at least!

My eldest has married a 6'1" Amazon. So yeah.
