The only family history I know is on my fathers side. My family is mostly Irish/British with some other European ancestry. I had a great great great uncle named Bryson (my brother was named after him) who was a general in the IRA (Irish Republican Army) he and his family were forced to leave because he was a war criminal. they had to get smuggled onto a ship by hiding in barrels, to come to America. I don't know if they came through Ellis island or not. My family came to Iowa a lot later. Source: My grandparents are really into family history so I got hear this stuff growing up all the time. This is all I could remember, and I can't ask them because they're in China

Brief overall. Perhaps a different topic would have been better.
