Events of importance are at Living in Black Mountain NC
My own life and my opinions are shared at When I was 69.

REMEMBER: In North America, the month of September 1752 was exceptionally short, skipping 11 days, when the Gregorian Calendar was adapted from the old Julian one, which didn't have leap year days.

So I'm pretty surprised how many of my ancestors' trees can be researched back to the mid eighteenth century. That's a lot for those times. And there are many of them who moved from their place of birth to a new local...either west or south. I don't think anyone went north.

It won't be easy to find the generations of my great times five grandparents. But there are several which go back to dear old England, Scotland and Ireland. The ones who went back to France, Germany and the Netherlands haven't been attached very well. Perhaps those records will become available someday.
