"One of my maternal ancestors emigrated to America from Bingen am Rhine."

Welcome to America.

The Rhine and the Thames were once the same river.

My DNA tells me I'm a Dane who immigrated to Ireland...possibly a Viking in ancient times. (R1b, DYS390-23). Don't know when we came to America.

"Welcome to America."

LOL! This happened in the early 1850's. I don't believe I've ever had anyone welcome me to America before, but I must say it felt kind of nice. So Welcome to America, right back atcha!
