Since my most recent ancestor to come to America was from England, I will choose it as my country of origin. He was from Lancashire County which is just above Wales on the map. If you see Liverpool and Manchester, that is the area he was from. It was an open area with farms and castles when he lived here. Along the coast it has become an industrial area with lots of manufacturing. The most well know thing from the area is the famous musical group called "The Beatles" from Liverpool.
