Maybe it’s because I’m into my genealogy. I’ve traced my roots back as far as I can and I’m still working on it. I’ve got ancestors that went on the ships during the Great Migration from 1620-1640. I figured out the names of some of the ships they were on. Stuff like that. I traced back my Irish side ’til it just because a puddle of “Muir” near Glasgow where it becomes impossible to know one Campbell from another…. until DNA stuff popped up and a connection shows up from an Australian Campbell family — and his big family portrait looks like a bunch of weird super-Irish versions of people of my near family. I mean if you want to be a European hot-dog born in America that’s fine. But tease out the ground turkey from the ground pork and ground beef in that hot dog and there’s interesting stuff to be found.
