As
we traced Harriet's mother's family back to its origins, we discovered
that one ancestor was scalped by an Indian, another was a member
of the Continental Congress, and some of her ancestors were in
(what was not yet) New York in 1610 - in other words, before
the Mayflower landed in Plymouth!
The first immigrants we identified
(in America) are, at the ends of the various branches of the
family tree in its most distant
