Father's side:
Grandfather: Nottingham, England
Grandmother: Leicestershire, England

Mother's side:
Grandfather: I don't know -- he died when I was a child and we don't have any communication with his side of the family
Grandmother: Peterborough, Ontario, Canada

What seems really weird to me is that I only just learned my maternal grandmother was born and raised in Peterborough, and I've never known where my maternal grandfather came from, but I've known all my life which specific cities/towns in England my paternal grandparents came from. (Well, it's hard to misplace the accents!) My mother's side of the family is very close-mouthed and secretive.
