I think I've seen that before but thanks for posting it. I forwarded it to my dad who always finds that stuff interesting.

I couldn't help but notice not too many French emigrating here compared to some other nations.

It'd be interesting to see other countries compared to the US.

I visualized bodies catapulted in and it was a much more entertaining and satisfying visual.

Sooo, since I'm mainly Scottish and Norwegian, with a little French and Irish mixed in (so I was told), that doesn't make me part of the problem ("problem" haha), does it?

My eight Great Grandparent invaders came from/approx year
Denmark/1850s
Denmark.1860s both to Utah

Germany/1870s
Germany/1870s both to Minn.

Germany/1870s into NY, Ill.
Swiss-German/Colonial times into NY

?/Colonial thru TN, PA, VA, Iowa, Coach Johnny Majors is in this tree
Irish/1500-1700s North, Eckerly trees and others

Those Irish I think were really the Brit invaders....as my DNA shows 49% Brit, 36% Scandanavian, 10% East Europe, only 2% Irish.

You're probably right. Until 1922 Ireland was part of the British empire, and after that, until 1948, was called The Free State or even, erroneously, Éire.

If MY dad had emigrated to the USA he would have bee, registered at Ellis Island - if they had been doing their job right - as British[Irish], having been born in Cork, Ireland, in 1904.

My paternal Grandfather was born here 1912, his parents were German.

Paternal Grandmother born in Russia or Poland 1914 or 1915 (Not 100% sure of which).

Maternal Grandfather born in Montreal 1915 on the way from Germany to US.

Maternal Grandmother born in Germany/Austria (Not 100% sure of which) 1918.

All came before 1920. They are all deceased, I wish they provided more info before they passed.
