Who are the trailblazers in your family? Who were the ones to leave their family, friends and homeland to come to America, the Land of the Free? Those courageous men and women who read about the free land in California and Oregon and made the trek across the barren plains to get there.
Were your ancestors brought here as indentured servants because they were Protestant in faith or as slaves in the belly of a ship? Did the trailblazers in your family fight for right, become business men and women, create a dynasty?
Trailblazers are leaders, pioneers; they look at 2,000 mile walks and 3 month ocean voyages as challenges to be met on their way to their goal, whatever that may be. I'm sure you have many in your family, in fact the United States of America is well known for it's Trailblazers!
