I find it’s so cool that everyone not ethnically tied to the United States has a beautiful story of ancestry! Because we really are a big melting pot and all ethnicities are beautiful

I wish mine was that interesting, my family's been here since the 1600s and it's nothing but English really. It sucks having no international connection

Yeah, I found out I'm related to both President Rutherford B. Hayes and Boris Johnson through my like 12th or 14th great grandfather. And my family didn't fight in the revolutionary war, but they moved to Canada after it, which probably means that they were loyalists
