Excuse me? Would you like to see pictures of the grave of the family 
nanny and maid of all work in our family cemetary plot? When she grew 
too old to work she first lived with my Uncle John until he grew too 
unwell to take care of her, then she lived with my parents as an honored 
guest until she died.

Do not understand? Byotch, please. I am so white a gringa I practically 
glow in the freaking dark. My family has been in the US since the 1630s 
and we were not transportees, convicts or anything like that. Both 
lines, one in the Mass Bay Colony and the other line in Nieu Amsterdam 
before it was New York.
