Download My Polish Grandmother: from Tragedy in Poland to her Rose Garden in America Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This book is about a Polish grandmother. The story in this book is different from many immigrant stories because I tell it from the perspective of a woman. The story asks questions about her fears and challenges in growing up, immigrating to America and making a new life. In writing my grandmother's story, I wanted to go beyond the names, dates, and pictures in the albums. She was more than that. It is crucial to ask why she did what she did. Hopefully, this story will give the reader insights that will help them understand their immigrant ancestors more. As you read this story ask the same questions about your ancestors. If you do, your view of your family history will definitely change.

Download My Polish Grandmother Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Where did Anna get her strength? She was the youngest daughter of a Polish farmer and very small physically. However, she was always in command when she was in the room. The story in this book of Anna's life is different from many stories of immigrants because it is told from the perspective of a woman. This book tells about the life of a Polish immigrant from the Russian partition of Poland. It describes the area where she was born, her early life and the tragedy before she left for America. Somehow, she overcame the challenges of travel across the Atlantic to the United States and found the strength to build a new family without the support of any her Polish family being near. I believe that she gained her strength from the tragedy of her early life in Poland and the challenges she overcame to start her new life in America. She worked hard each day but still had time to be happy from her garden and her family.The story asks questions about Anna's fears in making these changes and hopefully will give the reader insights that will help them understand their immigrant ancestors more.In writing my grandmother's story I wanted to go beyond the names, dates and pictures in the albums.

Download The Descendants of Thomas McDowell in Colonial America Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This book is the story of the descendants of Thomas McDowell, who came to the American colonies in the 1700s, and their impact on American History. The different branches lived in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, and Kentucky, and many family members made significant contributions to the growth of the colonies. The new homes of the McDowell Family were on the frontier. Life there was challenging as they had to clear their land and build cabins. They also joined the local militias to protect themselves against Indian attacks. Even though Indians killed some, most survived and, in many cases, flourished. The McDowell family had many members who fought in the American Revolution to establish our freedoms. Did you know Charles McDowell, “Pleasant Garden Joe” McDowell, and "Quaker Meadows Joe" McDowell were officers in the North Carolina Militia who had a significant role in defeating the British at a turning point in the American Revolution. They are in history books. The McDowell family’s contribution to American History goes beyond our three heroes in the North Carolina militia. Read the pages of this book to discover who the other heroes are. One may be your ancestor. The book offers a fascinating overview of colonial American life. Even if you don't have McDowell ancestors, you may find a connection to your colonial roots.
