My earliest immigrant ancestor who arrived in America was the
Reverend Haute Wyatt who came to the Virginia
Colony with his brother, Sir Francis Wyatt, in 1621. Sir Francis Wyatt
was governor of the Virginia Colony from 1621-26 and again from 1639-42. One
of the last to arrive in the new world was Friedrich Wilhelm Aspelmeyer
who landed in Baltimore in 1848. Friedrich came from
Westphalia in Northern Germany (then Prussia). Between 1621 and 1848
several other ancestors also arrived in the new world. A few were
Scotch-Irish, the vast majority were either English or German. The
table below is a list of immigrants I have confirmed through research. |
