My paternal side of the family got here between 1654 and 1658, my son is the 13th generation. All Scotch/Irish. They stuck to living in Virginia for the first five generations, hit the Cumberland Gap and moved to Kentucky by the late 1700s. Tennessee by the first decade of the 1800s, then to Pulaski County, Missouri by 1845. My 2xgreat-grandfather got to Bosque County in about 1850.
My maternal side is mostly Irish, they were here during the Revolutionary War, and moved south, coming to Texas through Georgia, and Alabama.
My wife's family history is very interesting. Her paternal side came with Prince Karl to New Braunfels in 1844, they are buried from Bexar, Comal, to Blanco Counties. Her mother's side didn't get here from Germany and Poland until the late 1800s, and made a fortune cabbage farming around Corpus Christi. They moved after a huge hurricane in about 1903, and bought a ranch at Tilden, sold that and bought several thousand acres around Blanco and Wimberly.
