The European History in the 1700-1900s is quite relevant to why my ancestors came to the United States.  For some, I am sure it was to seek out a new adventure but for others it could have been due to religious or other persecution in their native country.  I have tried to outline the relevant events and events that potentially impacted my ancestors.
