Do you know where your Grandparents or Great Grandparents migrated from? If so, where did they settle?

My maternal grandparents came from Germany and settled in the Amana colonies in Iowa. That was a communal arrangement and very strict and religious. Have you ever visited the Amana Colonies? It attracts a lot of tourists each year, but it's not like it was when I was a child. There are books about the people who lived there and their lifestyle.

very interesting. I have not heard of that Colony, I am going to look it up for a little history lesson for myself. Thank you.
