I could not find collect enough inforation about my family, so I will tell you about why most people came from where my family did.
My family came from Germany, and most German people came to the United States to find a better life.
Many found good jobs, with a lower cost of food and land. German's were actually some of the first settlers the United States had. They settled in Jamestown and present day New York.
During the 19th century, living conditions in Germany were poor. There was mass
unemployment and farmers land was being taken by the government. The British sold
cheaper goods and competed with German sales. Because of these things, many
people left Germany for a better life in the United States of America.
This is a photo of happy people having a parade!
I am glad living conditions got better and a lot of peoples lives changed by coming to America.
