You may have noticed that we are visiting many places connected to my family history on this trip. This is by no means the purpose, or a purpose, of the trip, but it makes for a nice distraction, gives us an idea of places to go, and we learn something to! Well in case it all sounded confusing, i made a chart of the various ancestors who emigrated, where from and whether we have visited the place. The number at the right is the number of generations removed from me the emigree was.
