Discovering My English Immigrant Ancestors: A Journey Through Family History

I recently inquired with my Grandma about our immigrant lineage, and she revealed that our ancestors hailed from England. This exploration through Paul’s Genealogy Project focuses on notable immigrants from England, particularly the Fischer and Armstrong families. Key figures include Johannes Fischer, who arrived in New York in 1708, and Avis Armstrong, documented in Connecticut in 1660. Through this project, we delve into the rich tapestry of our family history, uncovering origins and contributions to early American society, and highlighting the importance of genealogy in understanding our roots.
