Two of my Great grandparents were orphans,one of my Grandma's parents. So her line has been a lot of dead ends. Both of my Grandfathers have them traced all the way back to Norway and Sweden. My other Grandmother we have most of it traced back to Europe. The first one came over in 1623. His wife was already here. I read one time that is 1650 Virginia had 50 Englishmen for every Englishwoman. So I am not surprised he married an Indian girl in 1628. Have relatives that fought in the American Revolution.
