My paternal grandfather, George Robert
McCullough was the first of our Irish
McCullough family born in America after
immigrating in the early 1850's. My
paternal grandmother Nellie Rebecca Mace
traces her ancestry back to late 17th century
when the families came from Scotland, Ireland
and England to the English colonies of
Pennsylvania,Connecticut, Massachusetts
and Maryland.
On the other side, my maternal
grandfather, Wroightsley/William Clifton
White (Did he really have a name like that?) has solid
roots in the American soil going back to
early 1700's in Virginia and North
Carolina. My maternal grandmother, Emma
Mueller, was the first of our Mueller
family born in the United States after her
father, Gustav, and grandfather, August,
immigrated from Wurttemburg, Germany in
1848.
So,half of the paternal and maternal sides
are fairly recent immigrants (three
generations each in America), while the
other half of both sides (paternal:
seven,and maternal: nine generations) contributed
early to the development of the United
States,offering many patriots who
participated in the Revolutionary War and
before.
Read the "Stories" below for some
interesting ancestor events and a listing
of some ancestors who fought in the
Revolutionary War.
