Are there any Americans here whose ancestors arrived to the US

>>130947019
Leaf here.

My family moved from the US after they declared independence. Everyone in my family is anglo.

They were part of the Loyalists movement and my ancestors settled in Niagara.

My grandmother did a family tree and linked our line back to one of George Washington's Sisters.

Cool stories

It's quite surprising to see how many amerifats know their ancestors, considering the fact, that almost all americans are shallow and outright stupid

>>130947019
Paternal line came here prior to the Declaration of Independence. Grandmother's family came over on the Mayflower, and grandfather's family, as far back as we've traced it, were revolutionary fighters.

>>130947019
Americans are obsessed with tracing back ancestry, where do you think the ">1/64th German heritage" meme came from? I'm a descendant of Alexander Hamilton through one of my grandfathers, but the other 3 grandparents families all came to America from Europe around the 1910s-1920s.

My ancestors were all Native.

>>130949147
IIRC, one of the revolutionaries from my paternal grandfather's line was one of Paul Revere's middle-men, who helped signal boost the impending arrival of the British.

>>130949615
My mother and sister are also members of the Daughters of the Revolution. So we also had family who fought in the war.

>>130947019
some of my ancestors arrived in the early 1700s. i read up on what happened to them in switzerland before they left out and got super depressed. after that i stopped looking.
also, i now want to nuke switzerland into oblivion because they chased my ancestors out for not being catholic.

TIL what Mayflower is

Massachusetts Bay Colony 1640. Founded Haverhill. I can trace that line back to before the Norman Conquest of 1066.

>>130947019
Family can be traced back to North Carolina in 1641. Just Irish farmers, nothing special. It is kinda cool though essentially being ethnically American

>>130947019
The farthest back I know of is my great-grandfather because he's the one who started the family plot. I heard some kin of ours did a genealogy thing but I don't care.

Irish family in NC in 1641?

seems legit

Family on my mother's side came over on the Mayflower.

>>130947019

My earliest ancestors in the americas were dutch slave traders, but I don't know the precise year so it's only a possibly not a definitely. Since then we've mostly stuck to other northern europeans on my father's side save for a spaniard in the wood pile a few generations back, irish, scotch, french and cherokee on the mother's side. I look white but I fail the one drop rule test.

I have ancestor who was a preacher or something during the revolutionary war. I still have his diary. Its bretty bored tbqhfp.

>Lordsday Nov. 23, 1777
>Preacht as usual

>Lordsday Jan. 11, 1778

>The drought is so great with us, that many fields of corn on dry land is withered so as to bear very little if rain should come now; and this day the clouds arose and rained in such a manner seven miles northwest of us as to fill a flat vessel 7 inches deep with water in the open air, while we had none at all. It also rained much so at Elder Nelsons meetinghouse in Taunton. A display of Sovereignty.

Doesn't seem like a very interesting man.

>>130949610
Not him, but a picture doesn't equal a photo.

My mother's side settled in Virginia in the early 1700s.

>>130947019
Yeah. Ancestors fought in the Revolutionary War and Civil War (union). Not that interested but I found the diary of my great great whatever grandfather from his time in the union army during the Civil War. That was pretty cool. Turns out he was a Freemasonry, whatever that meant at the time.

Old family story says that my father's side of the family descended from Hessian mercenaries hired by the British to put down the rebellion.
No way to know if it's true though

Did a heritage project for my parents this past Christmas, traced back first male ancestor to come to America on either side. Dads came from Germany in 1739, wifed up a fraulein and they had 9 kids. Fought against the British from the onset.
My mothers first male ancestor was a Hessian mercenary came over immediately prior to the Revolutionary war. Initially fought the colonists and then defected.

Definitely worth doing if it interests you. My advice is bypass the ancestry websites and start with FindaGrave, their website will typically have info on the deceased parents and children and it's easier to go backward from there

Yes

Supposedly we have an ancestor that was on the mayflower and my grandfather traced back our ancestry to the early 1700s in Pennsylvania before the revolution.

My mother's side came to Virginia with the Jamestown colony, my dad's side came to NYC from Norway in the early 1900s and settled on Staten Island. I always got shit on because Californians don't understand that you can be proud of your ancestors (especially "evul slavers" (nope) who fought for the South)

>>130948113
Hello cousin!

>>130947019
Yup, my family history on my dad's side can be traced back to the mid-17th century. My grandma actually had a family tree hanging in her house when i was growing up showing the direct lineage of her marriage all the way back

we fought in the revolutionary war. idk where but somewhere one of my relatives still has our family sword. my most famous ancestors probably was Robert Kemp, who was a shipbuilder during the war of 1812, his most famous works were the "Pride of Baltimore" and "the Chaucer" (probably incorrect spelling)

ngl its pretty cool desu, but i also use it as motivation to be something greater than he was

>>130947019
Yeah, one of my ancestors helped to found Rhode Island or something, and I think a distant uncle signed the decleration.

>>130947019
My mothers side (anglo/swedes) came over during the 1600s. We've traced ancestry back to a 15th century Englishman.

Also related to Dick Turpin.

>>130952435
That's the same origin story on my mothers side, fought for England and then defected. The anglicized last names make it difficult to verify with a certainty based off Hessian battle rolls but I ended up confirming it by contacting historical societies.

>>130947019

Ancestors on the Mayflower, yes.

Also a big pack of Scots in the 1740s, whose children went on to fight against the English in the Revolution.

>>130947019
My ancestors were landowners in Connecticut and Vermont before the Declaration of Independence. While I still have some distant cousins out that way, the majority of my family went south and populated Missouri, Mississippi and Texas throughout the 1800's and largely still reside there today.

>>130952435

Oh and other English settlers in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New Jersey before the Revolution. I'm also the descendant of Hessian slaves brought over to work in the Royal Naval shipyard in New York around 1710 or so. See, white people can be slaves. I want reparations.

some anglo in my tree came over before independence and was killed by indians and had a little footbridge named after him somewhere

>>130947019
Yes. Im almost 100% Welsh. My grandpapy and his family immigrated to the US colonies sometime around 1730. His son fought in the civil war and then later my family moved to Wisconsin territories and started a saw mill company in Wausau. His son fought in the civil war and the heritage goes on.

My mother's side was almost entirely Norwegian, they ended up moving to the midwest in the late 19th century.

We're legit related to a family that came over with the Mayflower. Not that anyone in our family really gives a shit, most of them are liberals and seem embarrassed about it.
The rest were working class Irish and German. Mostly Irish.
A couple of us are interested in our geneology, and have been doing DNA tests and a ton of research. No big surprises, really. The German line is the one that needs the most research, we have nothing prior to them arriving in the US, in the 1800's.

>>130947019
Yup. I—and many other Americans in this thread, though they may not know it—am a direct descendant of Captain John Underhill, one of the first three colonial militia officers ever commissioned in the colonies. He and his Dutch wife arrived in 1630 with the Winthrop Fleet, aboard the Arabella. He was personally responsible for vanquishing thousands (not a typo) of natives to defend the fledgling colonies. Wall Street was built by Governor Stuyvesant to defend the Dutch colony of New Amsterdam against him, should the British Crown decide to move against it. To taunt Stuyvesant, Underhill bought a plot directly across from it and built a house; Trinity Church in Manhattan now stands in its place.

The photo is Teddy Roosevelt dedicating the Underhill Burying Ground. For more than two centuries we were among the most significant and prosperous WASP families in the United States.

Generally idiots that obsess over their European ancestry while masturbating about how they are German or English when their ancestors have lived in the US for several generations, they have never set foot on the country they identify with, and they have no understanding of the culture or history of the country they identify with.

>Are there any Americans here whose ancestors arrived to the US before declaration of Independence?
I have an ancestor who arrived from England in the 1600s. I have other ancestors who arrived in the early 1900s from Germany. There are other branches of my family tree whose origins I never learned. Which one particular ancestor is more important to my identity? I don't know or care. It's not relevant to modern society in any way, shape or form. What's interesting is that almost no Americans bother tracing their ancestry beyond the point of arrival to America, to when their families still lived in Europe.

>Are Americans in general interested in tracing back their ancestry?
I think most Americans are pretty apathetic about the specifics of their ancestry unless their ancestor was particularly notable and they retain that notable person's family name. For example, George Washington's descendants would be interested in their family tree, but the descendants of some random German immigrant who was good at wheat farming will probably think that their family's fame is ahead of them.

It's hard to go into detail without giving away your surname, like you said uncommon last names.

I can trace my ancestry back to a guy who fought in the revolutionary war named Micheal Roll. He served as a scout in modern day Pennsylvania. Ancestry likely goes back farther than that but there is no documentation to tell us who they were.

>>130947019
My mother's side can be traced back to fighting in the revolution, they were crown loyalists though but stayed anyways. My father's side my grandpa coming to Mexico to marry my grandmother and then they moved here

>>130947019

I've traced my paternal line to England. He came to the Virginia Colony in 1626. My maternal line has been traced to Spain; my ancestor in that line was is New Mexico when the US acquired it. They (obviously) exercised the option in the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo to stay in New Mexico and get US citizenship.

On the latter note it ticks me off to see these short brown wetbacks claim "We didn't cross de Border; de Border crossed us." Completely ignoring the fact that they jumped the fence 10 years ago and never had an ancestors that lived in what is now the American Southwest.

Deport all wetbacks!

My mom once traced our ancestry back to Henry the VIII, so she said.
And my last name from my dad, Washburn, could mean I'm related to the same Washburn knighted by William the Conqueror. That's hardly unique though, there's a lot of Washburns in the US of A, so either not all of them have that ancestor, or that guy was really good at breeding.

I'll have to look into it some more one of these days.

Native: Being one's own because of the place or circumstances of one's birth.

Indigenous: Originating and living or occurring naturally in an area or environment.

Yeah but some prefix Americans really get carried away with it.

Have ancestors in America from the 1600s on both sides of my family. One ancestor was a Revolutionary War soldier (from Connecticut , I think) who nearly died on a British prison ship because he conditions were so terrible.

>>130947019
my paternal progenitor probably is of that category.

So I was adopted and eventually obtained some information about my biologic origins .

My father was a W.A.S.P. English/ Scottish Dartmouth/Tuck grad probably around 1941 going by his given age..

In those days to my understanding most, I say most of those Ivy leaguers probably had colonial ancestry.

Being as I have been unable to discover his identity and as far as I know the last person I had found (biomom's sister) who might have known his name died last year I'll probably never know.

My family arrived here in 1660. They became rather wealthy landowners in Virginia and later Tennessee. Then we went to Illinois, then Texas. Most are still in Texas though we're fairly dispersed now.

Yes we owned slaves during most of the 1700s. And no I have no African blood, already checked with 23and me.

She hates trump and was a bernie supporter. Never met any of them despite having lived in America. They wanted me to visit them so they can "get to know their roots" one of their youngest daughters is married to nigger blacker than night. i said i would come by eventually. Never did, lol.

Family came before the revolution, fought in the revolution, and had a plantation in one of the Carolinas and fought for the south in the civil war.
I'm like 66% mick and Anglo, and the rest comes from the rest of northwestern europe.

One branch yes. I can trace that branch to the Crusades.

The rest I can go back no earlier than the 1880s.

"My grandma told me this" Is pretty unreliable.

I also heard that I'm related to John Dillinger or some shit but i don't know where from and I never believed it.

In general, the numbers seem to agree with what one would expect given the history of American colonization by Europeans and their interactions with African and Native Americans.

I also have many ancestors that fought during the revolutionary war and throughout the leadership of the South both pre and post revolution.

on one side, my family were the first on plymoth rock and one was the first governor of the first American colony, also prominent potato niggers who got into the family tree shortly after the civil war

Yeah I've traced back a few different family lines to pre-revolution. Massachusetts and Virginia. Also, I have a distant relative that was among the first mormons. Started out in New York, then went to Illinois and Missouri, leaving some relatives behind before being chased out, then finally to Utah as an old man with his 12 wives lol.

My Male family line has been in this great land since the 1650s from jolly old England. Every man in my family is based as shit. I would say a significant portion of white americans keep up with their genealogy.

English came here and started this country, irish came here as slaves. Today they're both just seen as "white". What a travesty. You're not a real white american if you aren't majority english protestant. Fuck the wops, the irish, the germans.

All of my family arrived before the Declaration. My family is basically all descended from old colonial families of Virginia and North Carolina mostly although a few were from South Carolina and Maryland and one from Pennsylvania.

If we didn't put you forrest niggers on reservations there would be none of you left. Your squaws like the white dick too much and you literally can't live without gibs.

Your populations are managed like deer.

We've now got a lot more ancient DNA samples. There was a single population at one point that stretched from France to Siberia occupied by one ethnic group labelled Ancient North Eurasian. This population is ancestral to all Europeans (a lot more to Northern Europeans) and Americoids. Americoids acquired 1/3 ancestry from paleo-East Asians and then crossed Beringia into the Americas.

It's an ANE burial from 24,000 B.C. that shows the first recorded case of genes for white skin and blonde hair.

On my fathers side, my grandfathers people came over as indentured servants. Beyond that the rest came over during the potato famine on my moms side, and my grandmas came from Sweden in the late 1800s. Nobody famous, but my grandfathers family were some of the first to settle Montana, and one married a squaw. Iam a true American mutt.

Yeah my first ancestors came here from the Rhine area of Germany in the 1750s, settled in Pennsylvania

my family came over in the 1600s as overseers of indentured servants for an incorporated colony

they fought in the Revolution

their indentured servant business evolved to slavery and they actually hold the record for the most slaves in America. ;D

with that said, my family is so large that there were factions that fought on both sides of the civil war and many died. the patriarch in the south lived and went on to be a southern governor and senator during reconstruction.

he was a democrat AND he had owned the most slaves. many of his former slaves voted for him because the life he offered them on his industrial scale plantations was actually pretty good and they wanted to continue working for him.

its true, its true.

1698 (ish). He was a oyster-man and beaver-man. He came from England and lived in Delaware.

Then you and I are related because I too am a descendant of the Harrison line. Benjamin Harrison V, who actually signed the Declaration of Independence, his son William Henry Harrison, and William's son, Benjamin Harrison.

A plurality of them, indubitably
