@Tinkrbl44 Yes, very interesting. Thanks for sharing. My sister and I belong to three genealogical societies, and this puts it all into perspective!

I have a lot of records and research going back to the 1700 but would love to have photos. The earliest I have is of one great-great grandmother and her two kids.

That last paragraph is something more need to realize/keep in mind. I once had a conversation with a friend who told me her ancestors came to the US as indentured servants. That, of course, wasn't ideal but because they went through that, she has had a life of freedom that she wouldn't have had otherwise.

My folks hit the soil in this country in 1644. I do know that they came from England and where they lived there. I don't know how much they have to do with who I am today.

It's not just physical DNA that is passed down. Emotions, feelings, etc are also imprinted and affect generations.

I am the child of an immigrant father who only went to the 8th grade but managed to put his two children through college. I have a cousin whose grandfather was my father's brother. This cousin also went to college --- and donated, while living, a million dollars to a college. All of my immigrant aunts and uncles, along with all of their progeny, became productive citizens who contributed to this country in various ways.Yes, immigrants ARE what makes this country great. We are a nation of immigrants with many cultures contributing to and enriching our country.

@Q-Checker I am impressed by your heritagel. Immigrants are a huge asset for this country, which is built on immigrants from many countries.

I applaud and embrace anyone who wants come here through our system, follow the laws and if they choose become a citizen.

I have helped people pass the citizenship test and was delighted to help them learn--and learn some thing myself! I live in a town with many folks from other countries, and that includes a lot of my neighbors from around the globe.

For some odd reason, the PDF chart comes and goes. I tried another one.
