Paternal - Ireland to the Lacassine area mid 1800’s
Maternal - England to Virginia around 1760 or so. Then to southern Arkansas area around 1870 or so. Then to SW Louisiana around 1930. Her family is still scattered between Smackover Arkansas, Oak Grove, LA, and SW LA.

My dad side came from ulster in the 1700s. They came to America and then migrated south. You may have heard of them. The Calhouns John C Calhoun is my great uncle and his brother. James is a great grandfather of mine.

So you can trace your family's history back 12,600 years ago before the younger Dryas? That's amazing.
Mine are from the Canary Island Tenerife. Arrived here in the Santísmo Sacramento in 1783 and settled in Valenzuela on Bayou Lafourche just south of Donaldsonville.
The other half is from Nova Scotia.

This is where my grandmother’s family is from.
I wonder how many of us are related since a lot of us with family that settled in Louisiana are from these areas.
Also a little soccer joke, it’s funny when Nice and Brest play.

England late 1600s and Austria early 1800s.
My name is kind of rare, and the first person in The U.S. with our name, is buried at a church 4 miles away from where I sit right now.
He died in 1882 at 93 years old.

I'm halfway interested in everyone leaving so we can watch Chief Sitting Face slaughter the other Indians over the casinos.

My people were here before 1775. Get off my lawn and go back to where you came from.

One of our relatives was in the oriinal Jamestown group (1607). FIO The Plymoth Pilgrim/Mayflower settlement was established in 1620.
Our relative married an Indian (Native American) so I claim 1/10,000 Indian blood.
