you will need to write a 1-2 page paper describing and explaining your own family migration history; you may also want to map the migration patterns. To simplify the project, trace only one side of your family back at least three generations. You need only to identify the persons by relationship, such as great-grandmother, grandmother, or mother. Begin your family migration with your great-grandparent, or earlier if you wish, and include your grandparents, parents, and yourself. If known, please include your ethnic heritage. The object of this project is to not only to determine where your ancestors have lived, but why they may have decided to migrate (or not migrate in the case of some families). See if you can find out what were the push and pull factors involved in the various migration decisions. How was information about the intended destination gathered? Did your family members experience any problems adjusting to their new social and cultural surroundings? Finally, did your family’s movement patterns represent any of the regional, national, or international movements that have occurred in the past century
