Thanks for posting this; it’s very interesting; though NOT a repast I’d care to eat much of!

“When he wasn’t marrying, divorcing, or beheading his wives…” and let us not forget “drawing, quartering and disemboweling Catholics.”

“Folks wanted to escape the Psychos in Europe, and for that matter the rest of the world that found freedom in this country.”

Actually many of those supposedly fleeing “Psychos” in Europe were psychos themselves. The Puritans, for instance, persecuted people in Great Britain AFTER their fellow Puritans fled England for America. You know only psychos would ban Christmas celebrations - and the Puritans did. https://www.mass.gov/doc/penalty-for-keeping-christmas/download
