I have the opposite situation. Almost all of my ancestors came over between 1607 and 1750 with a very few around 1800. Like many of you I'm a European mutt with a few drops of Native American blood.

I actually mistyped (damn whiskey!) - I meant to say "Post-revolutionary war" as in, it seems that the majority of my distant ancestors were Americans before America was America. Including a very distant great grandfather William Davis, aide to Gen. George Washington and 2nd generation Welshie.
