My family and my wife's family arrived on the Mayflower and in Jamestown. We've been here a long time. The latest immigrant was my great grandfather in 1863 from Wales. He served in the Union Army until 1865. Among his 19 children were many engineers and farmers. All very successful. He insisted that they speak English to assure their success.

Some of my ancestors would have been there to welcome you, but they were otherwise occupied at the time. Of course, a lot of my other ancestors came later on.
