I'm an American and Floridian, my family has roots in North Carolina but I have always longed to go to Spain. Well imagine my surprise when my mother told me that one of my ancestors was from Spain, I'm not sure if she was my great or great-great grandmother. Supposedly she was from Spain but I can't believe someone would leave a wonderful place like that (yeah, I know franco was bad but that was after her time? and the Spanish immigrants weren't as common in this country as Irish, Italian, etc.
I would love to know more about her, was she really from Spain, and why on earth she came here, what part of Spain she was from? All I know is her first (olivia) and last name (which must have been her married name, King, because that is English). I saw a picture of her and she looked more Mexican than anything (well if she was Mexican that's cool because I love Latin culture). I'm just dying of curiosity.
If you can help me, thanks.
