| Topic | How many generations of your family was born and raised in the United States? |
| Zeus 07/04/17 9:34:52 PM #17: | Counting my father's side, I'm second-gen... I think. I know my grandma was definitely an immigrant -- and the only one from her family to actually stay in this country, having come over as an early teen -- whereas I'm not as sure about my grandfather and his relatives, although there are some in this country. On my mother's side, I might be third-gen. It's a little murkier since I *think* know a bit more about that side, although I particularly remember the fact that he died young and that was probably one reason why we may been screwed out of a substantial family fortune. (Which is a good example of the rich getting poor.) My mother's side has a ton of relatives, though, with a lot of stories about somebody backstabbing somebody else, minor scandals, suspicious deaths, etc. Also, because of the age difference with births, the generations are really spread out in my family. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ...
