Ages of Places

I just found that Fort Lauderdale is the oldest, like early 1800s, then Key West had a fort as well in the mid 1800s and became the most successful place, then Miami.  I guess the early English settlers of Jamestown are the next best place to go to.  I just found Miami was found late 1800s and Key West early 1800s.  I guess Key West is interesting.  So is Fort Lauderdale.  Miami is in the middle.

I'm not sure what's so interesting about like ... I dunno like who's in on what if it's about people in Europe and people I guess in certain parts of the U.S.  I wonder what a European does in Key West.  I guess if you were from another part of the U.S. before that you would have more heritage there.  Also, very old colonies are interesting.  I think it's interesting, the English.  I know the oldest continuously and 2nd overall oldest city in the U.S. is Spanish, so I guess the mixing pots of Key West and Fort Lauderdale are of more prestige.  See, there's this movie that used to be in the wax muesum when I went back to visit.  It showed a girl drowning in a boat who was Spanish.  It makes me think of the old Spanish play.  They even had a church.  So, it seemed like Egypt or something.  It was a big, dark ocean, and she got lost.  She was so pretty.  There was another movie.  Wait this is in the vistor's center.  The other 1 in the wax museum showed a boy chosing to go through the trees and finding skeletons.

I think Ellen DeGeneres's mom probably has ancesetry in New Orleans (I already forget, it was discovered in the 1600s ... 1690.)  It seems her mom's ancestry dates back to the 1800s.  I don't see what that has to do with people from other areas of the country.  I read her father isn't from the U.S.  In the interview, he didn't have an accent.  I know the English here sometimes don't use an accent, but they know the accent.  Well, I mean, it's interesting because we're interested in that, people from out-of-the-U.S.
