re: Where are your ancestors from?

Dad's side was from Scotland. They were masons over there, great great great grandfather came to America in 1787 as a teenager penniless and within 10 years was one of the wealthiest men in New Orleans, owning many businesses in the French quarter, a house on canal st, married Zelia Destrehan and became owner of the Destrehan Plantation, and owned a vacation home in Virginia.

My moms side were Italian immigrants to Massachusetts during the industrial revolution
