8. Great and in college I had to read and know the history if it all
Who came, why they came and how they made out. Since my own family were just about 100 percent pre-USA I was really interested in the subject. Half my children's family came from the great German and Irish group. I did special studies on it and one study we found that the newer the person to this country the more history he knew about the country. My college teacher was from Iran via England Univ. and he used to have a fit because so many students did not know a thing about US history. He was a great teacher and I used to sit around in a garden and have lunch with him and we just used to talk about what he had done and my very nice easy time growing up.
