Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Did Your Ancestors

I had zero ancestors here before 1881. That's on my mother's German side. Both of my maternal grandparents were born here to German immigrant parents who came here as children with their parents from Bavaria and Alsace. My father's side began here when my grandfather arrived from Scotland in 1914. He served in the Canadian Army in WW1, as did a few other guys from around here who crossed the border and enlisted in the spring of 1917. He married his old girlfriend in Dundee Scotland a few weeks after WW1 ended and it was early 1919 when they got back here. Ain't none of my ancestors ever showed up here until post slavery.
