Hello, my name is Adrienne White. My ancestors are from Ireland and
Spain. I am most interested in my Spanish ancestery
because they were here the earliest. My ancestors
arrived here in the 1500’s. My last name has been
changed over time from Blanco to White. Blanco is
Spanish for White, so I can see how this happened. I
wanted to bring a Spanish sword that has been in my
family forever, but could not for many reasons. Instead,
I brought a symbol of something that my ancestors
brought over from Spain. It is a horse, a major
contribution to America. It changed the lifestyles of
many people here, from Native Americans using them for
hunting, to transportation for many.
