          Wrong again. My family arrived in Tennessee in 1796. I'm not sure when the family got to Texas, but fairly quickly. I know they stopped for a bit in Arkansas.

            Well Mexico declared independence in 1810 and they had quite a lengthy war of independence with Spain, and they were still fighting at that point...

              Is she British? I know furriners have real trouble with his accent, but I never have.

                  She is able to speak four languages (passably) but alas not Hullish.

                      Better than most people, who just talk slowly and loudly at people who can't speak English in the hope it will make a difference.

                        But still, in true British tradition, I am sh*t at speaking foreign. Most people just need to tune into my accent, that's all...

                          Wow, that there is like a who's who of inbreeding states! You sure they didn't start off in Virginia in the first place before migrating to Tennessee...?

                            West Virginia, Mobius. West VA was in the union, though, but it's still hillbilly land.

                                I went with Virginia as that's the bit that actually has a land border with Tennessee, not to mention the fact that them thar Appalacians gots plenty o hillbilly land themselves!
