| My Grandparents |
One of the things I love about America is that it's a true melting pot of cultures. I love finding out everyone's story and how they ended up here. In Cleveland where I live we have many heritages representing our city, We have lively neighborhoods of Italians, Irish, Greek, Middle Eastern, Asian and Eastern Europeans in the city. My family is Hungarian, Polish and Slovakian and I married into a dominant Irish and Italian family, all which play a huge part in the Cleveland culture. Every weekend hosts a festival or entertainment of some kind to get you in the mood to learn about one of the
cultures that has infused itself here. While awaiting my future trip to Hungary to investigate my family's past I decided to go onto Ancestors.com to get a little start on my journey. I was able to find out a few interesting facts. I learned when my grandfather and his family arrived in the USA from Hungary, the ship they sailed on and I was even able to see when he decided to cross the boarder into Canada with his brother to visit Niagara Falls so many years ago. It's actually pretty amazing what you can find out online and what details were recorded so long ago are still available for us to find like hidden buried treasures. Check out http://www.ancestry.com to learn more about the stories of your family tree and trace the roots in which they grew from.
