My mom is from Canada, my dad is from IL. Our history can be traced to Europe, countries that don't exist anymore but true records were lost in the war, or so it goes. Some family members did a tree but it doesn't go back on our line past the great greats.
My mom moved here in the late 60s after graduating nursing school in Canada. She moved in with her aunt and uncle and their son (my uber cool cuz) and knew no one else. My dad moved out here in the late 60s with his parents.
Not first gen American, but first gen Californian and will be the first to have a Bachelor degree (mom is an RN, dad is a programmer but they went to trade school).
I have dual citizenship between US and Canada. I used to not want it, I consider myself American but sometimes I think it would be nice to travel on a Canadian passport. I can travel to Cuba if I want. Not very "American" for this thread though...
