My grandson is the sixth generation to live in the home place in Tennessee. The family came here around 1875 from Texas in a covered wagon. There's a wedge and peg wardrobe that was broken down and carried here in that covered wagon that still stands in the two story farm house. They set up a saw mill in the back field and the home was built from the trees from the land. We have an original saw blade with the home painted on it that still hangs in the home. I was married to the fourth generation and brought my son, fifth generation, home from the hospital where my son still lives and works the land with his family. I love the history and the lifestyle. It still amazes me the strength of the pioneers.

In second and third grade I went to a two room school house. There were several horses grazing outside that the kids had ridden to school. In my late teens I ran a thirty mile trap line taking muskrat, beaver and mink. I've been to two rendezvous selling my pelts. I broke wild horse to saddle and shot just about every handgun made and several derringers. The house I grew up in was built before electricity and indoor plumbing. I'm 72.

But you have to admit the advances and developments the settlers brought from overseas certainly enhanced life throughout the U.S. I can’t imagine life was very good living in teepees in the open prairie in January. For the thousands of years the American Indian had the land of North America, they did very little with it. It’s the same with Africa, very little was done to develop that continent, yet the Middle East, China, and Europe made great advancements over thousands of years. All in all, we can all go back and long for the “Good Ol’ Days” of whatever culture we came from, but suffice it to say, here we are, for better or for worse, for richer or poorer, til death do us part! What you do with your life to help all of mankind hold it together in its present status and hold back the perils of chaos and collapse is our task and discover a way forwards. Let’s not waste the contributions and sacrifices our forefathers made to bring us to this year 2023, but rather thank them, honor them, and build upon the foundation they gave to us as our inheritance. Besides, the Lord God is bringing this world order to its logical conclusion. Jesus Christ will Return and judge us for what we have done, to those who believe Him and followed His commandments or eternal separation from God for those who refused to believe and follow the Lord Jesus. This is the true end of all things ever created. Be ready!

It’s nice that you have a kind heart. But the “native” Americans weren’t native. As you said, they were immigrants also. They commonly drove other tribes off of land that they wanted. They didn’t own the land. You can’t steal something that isn’t owned. I get your point, they lost their lifestyle. But that was inevitable. Any large continent that is sparsely populated, was going to be populated by other people. You see today people migrating across the globe. It may not be right, but it is, unfortunately, inevitable.

They did not "own" any land, either. They were migrants. Tribes, who murdered and enslaved each other.

My grandfather lived in a mining town in Colorado. Slow? He worked 60 hours per week in the mines from the time he was 14. The valley was so steep that he only saw the sun on Sunday (he thought that it was called Sunday for that reason). The whole town stunk of excrement and was ruled by the religious right. His Father abandoned the family so his Mother took in laundry and borders. Great life. Get another fantasy. Oh, no guns were allowed in town. The sheriff took them when you arrived in town and gave them back when you left. There were no gunfights.

It’s not a fantasy. This is real. I do know that my ancestors had a rough lifestyle as well, but not every family had that same upbringing. Out here in Arizona, in the 1800’s, to say the very least, it was not at all like Colorado. It’s called the Wild West for a reason. I think the things that everyone misses is the styling, the massive growth of inventions and the feeling of everything being possible due to the freedom gifted to us. We don’t have as much freedom anymore. We also don’t have class or culture anymore, and trust me, this video is a 100% cultural beginning for American European immigrants. Your grandfather seems like a hard working man with a good sense of humor…have you ever stopped to think that maybe he was okay with that lifestyle and that is why he stayed? Because my family traveled a LOT and found what life they wanted despite the ongoing attacks from the natives and unpredictable weather.

When was this video filmed?

EXCELLENT !!!!

So much has changed in 130 years!! Politicians got greedier and more greedier. Life was much simpler and easier to keep the money you earn!! Thank God for Modern Medicine though!

My great grandmother and grandfather came to texas from Tennessee in a covered wagon. Three babies. She's seen it all. T.ough lady

Seems to me they forgot some stuff like the oregon trail and the California trail. They didn't mention the civil war either. There was more then just the east coast.

Now all there is, is Monsanto and pollution..😮

You are ashamed that the United states is look upon as the last great hope for people wanting a better life. Maybe you should move to Cuba or maybe north korea.

Yeah! Let’s all die of fevers! Without air conditioning or cars!

The 1880s was a much harder time just to live. You worked for very little just to survive. There was no help. You either made it or you didn't. No air conditioning, no indoor plumbing. No toilet paper to speak of. People used things like advertising catalogs for that purpose. The sears catalog after it was read it went to the outhouse for toilet paper. No feminine products. Women had a very hard time then. Be careful about saying you would like to go back to that time.

The real land of opportunity

When America WAS America and no one complained about working for a living! They just got the job done, and that's what made a great country, we all pitched in!

Who's complaining about working for a living? People are complaining about working for a living without a living wage but of course people like you always talk with a forked tongue

14:30 I didn't know that "Gilbert & Sullivan" was so popular in America. Some of the British irony & sarcasm, esp. political, might not have been so well understood?
