"Where is the wing for Irish and Chinese who built the rail roads?"

Thank you, that was my thought too. While we're at it, might as well add the "French Canadians" (descendants of the explusion from Acadia) who came down during the 2nd Exodus in the mid-1850s and worked in the mills of VT, NH, MA, RI and CT during the industrial revolution.

Don't forget the Italians who practically built NYC and the Japanese who built up AZ (and were interned there during WWII).

Who else are we missing? The Amish who still (sorta) live the way they did when they arrived in the USA...I'm missing someone...
