So Many Ancestors!: July 4

Monday, July 4, 2016

In honor of July 4, I present some July 4 events from the past. Perhaps my Tennessee ancestors participated in or witnessed these events.

Beth: I have been researching my family history since 2006. I was born and raised in New Jersey. Some of my ancestors lived in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, but most of my United States ancestors lived in the South (Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia, and Kentucky) or the Midwest (Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, and Missouri). One branch of my family lived in Canada. My European ancestors were from Germany, Norway, Sweden, Scotland, England, and Ireland.
