I am an American and for being so I was surprised that I could trace my ancestry all the way back to early 1700 Europe. America is a 'melting pot' of the old country, we are intermixed and intermingled by definition. Being able to trace my roots came easier than I thought because of the computer and the instant information age we live in. Here are eleven generations running through my mother and her mother's father and his father, and his father's father and so forth .
I will start with a pic of my grand daughter Rosie.
