While I realize the Thanksgiving story is fraught with problems, that the colonists never saw native Americans as equals and were looking for the first opportunity to get the upper hand and take their land, there was some sort of feast where Plymouth colonists and Native Americans sat down and ate together.
My earliest know Immigrant ancestor, Stephen Deane, probably missed that first Thanksgiving celebration by a month or so. Probably got on shore around this date in 1621. #genealogy

@poemblaze I wish I could trace my ancestry back to Spain. But that would mean having to go through Cuba, and that's not feasible.
@LiberalLibrarian I wish you were able to as well. 😔
