I think we are from Central Germany. Not sure. Our family on the German side moved here around 1859 while the English came about 1660 to the Massachusetts' Coast and the Scotch around 1650 to North Carolina. Not sure when the Irish side came over. Probably around the time of the potato famine. Irish Potato Famine: Date, Cause & Great Hunger | HISTORY



I thought about this group who stood up to the Nazis Sophie Scholl and the White Rose | The National WWII Museum | New Orleans while thinking about my roots.
