Spaniards aren't native to the America's only native indigenous Mexicans are. Spain are colonizers like the French and British don't separate them from their European counterparts.
I feel like America needs more Asians rather than Hispanics, though. Having some portion of native blood makes you special? No. Spain and Portugal got Central and South America. That’s enough for y’all. Give North America to other people.
My late husband's came over in 1903 from the Netherlands; they were fortunate that a former friend from there now sponsored Oma and Opa. They settled in the Great Black Swamp of Northwest Ohio, an excellent area for growing vegetables- many many "truck" gardens in that area.

MY GREAT GREAT GRAND MOTHER , CAME TO NC. FROM LUMBARK TX. I OFTEN WONDER HOW SHE GOT TO THE EAST COAST. SHE CAME BY SHIP. WAS SOLD TO DUNLAP. SHE WAS Indigenous. I ONLY WISH I COULD KNOW HER NAME, BEFORE IT WAS CHANGED TO DUNLAP
My great grand father traveled about 12 miles and settled in Texas around 1900. But the region he lived never changed, was part of Mexico, then became the United States. Because of the Mexican revolution, he sold his diary farm and moved across the new border between Texas and Mexico
Wow. This is so moving. My husband and I migrated our family here in Australia two years ago. I guess I should document our journey for our future descendants to look back on! 😍
What story? It's his grandpa! That's it! Our Hispanic ancestors were born in small ranches and villages with no hospitals and little record keeping. I actually thought for a second that they found something interesting.

Dear white people, (I am writing this and I am white too), we also immigrated to the United States and our ancestors stories are also usually filled with hardship and crap. Don't hold it against people that you forgot or were never told the stories of your ancestors. In our past almost all of us were considered garbage. The family lineages that don't know of this were hated by their peers. I mourn the stories we will never hear.
Exactly, unless you were royalty, you were poor as a church mouse and treated as garbage, no matter your skin colour. White, black, Asian, Latino, any race was not free, unless they had a lot of money or title. It seems loads of people forget this. Evil comes from elites, not common people.
Except, when white people populated this country, most were given free land to farm. They came voluntarily, unlike black people. As well, Mexican people lived in the Southwest and were ousted when the land became U.S. territory. Haciendas became ranches. So yeah, it is a different experience.

California was only part of Mexico for only 1 generation (26 years). California was part of Spain for more than 200 years. My greatgrandfather was from Spain.
I’m sorry but that opening line about his paternal grandpa coming to America from Mexico is all wrong. Mexico is America, North America to be exact. His grandparents have Native/Indigenous American DNA. Look at Mario, he looks pretty indigenous to me. Most so called Mexicans are a mixture of Native American and Euro DNA, some African to an extent. Don’t forget the over 90-100% Native Americans that also reside in “Mexico”. We need to stop with this Mexico bs and call it what it really is. Native Americans .
Spain was controlled by the Muslims for hundreds of years making many Spanish part Arab as well making them much tanner than your Englishman of the time and the reason many Hispanics today have native blood is because the Spanish sent mostly men to the new world who took native wives while the English sent whole families
I’ve been doing my family tree for up to 4 years now and I’ve made some astonishing discoveries on my maternal side. I’ve traced my mum’s side of the family back to nobility and royalty. I found out that my 14 times great grand aunt was Jane Seymour, who married Henry VIII. Edward VI is my 1st cousin 15x removed and I’m a 22nd Great Grandson of Edward III through my 15th Great Grandmother Margery Wentworth. I’ve been so excited to discover these things and I couldn’t thank you enough for giving me the answers that I’ve needed to trace my family. Love your show, really inspiring ❤
Discovered this show a couple of years ago and got.hooked on my family tree. While my first reaction was to see how far could I go back -some branches were already online- I have been more interested in expanding the families of 19th century ancestors that I already knew existed. I had heard stories about my 3x-great grandmother and found her baptism record from 1846. Also have been trying to trace my last name all the way to Spain but currently stuck in 1718. And what my grandma thought were French ancestors turned out to be Portuguese.
I am ver y proud of my ancestor I am originally from Dominican Republic and my grandfather was a historian and wrote a book about one side of our ancestors that were black and my grandfather was really white but he was very proud of them because they fought for the independence of our country against the invasion we had for 22 years from Haiti and also when I was living in Spain I found the origin of my mother’s father that not one knew and more people were looking from what part of Spain were our ancestors and maybe because I grew up with this people I developed the interest to know more about where I come from
Thanks for sharing this insight into your own family history journey with us. It sounds like you have made some incredible discoveries to date and we want to wish you every continued success. 😊
@BunnyHop Go and stuff that liberal, public school, non-sense down the crapper. Even through DNA testing Native American shows up different from Asian, just like African and Caucasians do. Everyone didn't descend from Asia or Africa regardless of what some dummy, privately funded, paleontologist kook tells you. There were people already in the America's since the dawn of time. Amazing how people don't know about the Olmecs, who built huge civilizations thousands of years before the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. How horse fossils were found in North America, they were here long before the last ice age which was 10-12 thousand years ago. Go research LiDar, they're finding thousands of new village sites in the Yucatan and in the Amazon's. The people of the sun were here long before the Conquistadores, or this land migration theoretical non-sense from Asia and Africa. I find it funny how people are now saying Vikings were the first to be in the America's. If they were the first, why did they have to travel by boat, while the Indigenous Natives were already living here in cities with Temples dating over 2,600 years B.C. Keep changing the story, to amuse yourselves.
Mario Lopez has been a person I admired since I first saw him in Save by the Bell. Since then I have seen him many times at functions of the sport I love boxing, I like this positivisms and his great Mexican Heritage
I have Lopez from Sinaloa but apparently not related to this guy. However, mine came from Durango around the 1860s. Church records from Durango are much easier to work with than Sinaloa.
I’d love to find out more about my heritage, I know I’m Albanian on my fathers side and my mother’s side has French in there. But I’d love to learn about my ancestors who immigrated here and what they went through
Wow, even his ancestors are very good looking! Now I know where Mario got his handsome face from. Immigrants are hard working people, we come to America to work. Luciano López Burgos seemed like a great man, that’s one hell of an ancestor he’s got there.
Came to the United States to work. America is a continent, North America, South America. I think those farm workers should have been given visa's, its not like they were doing anything wrong.
Mexicans didn't come here, they were already here on Turtle island or Anahuac in nahuat before the Euros came to steal the landl. I bet that most Mexicans have native blood not only from tribes from the area of Mexico but from tribes as far north as Alaska and everywhere in between. That would explain why we all look so much alike wouldn't it?
Because most of us Mexicans and any one from Hispanic America have native blood because Spaniards and Natives could legally marry during the Spanish Empire... Steal the land?? That's a complex subject to a simplification of just "stealing the land"
I was born in Mexico but raised in the U.S. for many years people asked how I was a citizen if I was born in Mexico. I asked my mom. Apparently my moms uncle had applied for his citizenship. He was able to get his brothers citizenship. One of his younger brother was my grandpa. I think he got his citizenship around the 60’s. My mothers side of the family would work 6 months in the fields of California and go back to Mexico for 6 months yearly. It’s amazing to know the hard work that led me and many people to be here in the U.S & to know the back story
@cansouDude, California was part of Mexico until 1847. You don’t need to be a genius to figure out why so many californian cities, mountains and rivers have names in spanish. Go learn some history.
Hi oscar, thank you for the question. You can watch full episodes of Finding Your Roots on your local PBS station or by heading over to www.pbs.org/show/finding-your-roots/
I have a 3x-great grandmother Ynes Burgos (d. 1891) from Sinaloa, her parents were Francisco and Lucia but do not know anything about any other Burgos.
I am Mexican American. My dad came to America legally with a tourist from Mexico. He fell in love with America and never returned. Now both my parents are now U.S citizens.
Creo que es la historia de Mario lopez, mas bien de su abuelo como imigro de Mexico hacia usa despues de haber sido detenido varias veces. Mario participo en Save by the bell y otros shows. Hoy en dia tiene su propio show.
Este hombre Mario Lopez no es una persona que quisieras en tu vida. El tiene historia con asaltos sexuales con mujeres y mujeriego aunque estaba comprometido. Una senora del trabajo me llamo 'Mario Lopez' porque mi nombre es Mario. Yo lo tome como insulto, y le conteste, ' Yo soy mejor que Mario Lopez.'
I would love to find out about my roots some day I don't know much about my family history or tree im curious to know where my people came from originally
If you're ancestors are originally from North America, the Olmecs If you're from South America, the Inca. That's as far back historically as most people know today.
Imo. A person born between Alaska to the Patagonia, is American. North, Central, South. Native Americans to be correct. Sadly our history has been lost in translation for centuries.
Bruh the biggest state that still has a lot of indigenous people is Arizona some how I'm always seeing and hearing people not talk in English and Spanish but in their native language
@CanSoU why you dont make detroit great again, or kansas or ohio, or those 175,000 homeless that are in LA or those 52,000 who are living in NEW YORK, 75,000 in BOSTON?. make america great again cuz AMERICA....FCK YEAH.
Sadly Mario Lopez is the type of person you wouldn't trust him. If you have daughters, make sure they stay away from him or their lives will get ruined.
That was a real man. He would smack you for this victim mentality 100%. He sought a better life in a better place. For a reason. And worked his butt off to get it done and support 8 kids. He isn’t a victim, he’s a true man and went for “the American dream.”
When we do not forget from where our ancesters came from, than we might build a better future for our children and for the coming generations too…. Even the First Nations came from some where many, many thousands of years ago….and once upon a time the ancesters of all human that live today migrated from Africa to different parts of the world ….
It looks like these are also opportunities to kind of tell a different kind of history. If it’s good for the goose is good for the gander. What did Mexico and has Mexico done to other Latin American migrants in their country?
If there was Thirteen United Colonies back then, California, Arizona, Utah, Texas, and New Mexico are supposed to be Called ' ? I Don't Know what you Think 😕
Ellis island wS a hellhole for lots of noneite immigrants like the Siciliano the whiter you were the easier it was to get in by other whites known fact, southwestern us was and will always be brown , if your brown you have been around!😅
Let's not forger that California, Nevada, Utah, most of Arizona, the western half of New Mexico, the western quarter of Colorado, and the southwest corner of Wyoming belong to MEXICO.
No they don't. Mexico couldn't even protect the haciendas in northern Mexico from the Comanche, Kiowa, and Apache indios. The Californios were on their own. That's why many Hispanics in the New Mexico territory were glad when the USA annexed them.
We are all immigrants or immigrant decent we all want to be more than others but in reality we all are immigrants, and the land and the whole universe belongs to God we should live respectfully and appreciative of what we have in love and understanding with each other.

2:08 "...by what was known as a 'voluntary departure.'" Remember that phrase and concept. Of course, it'll be awhile before it becomes useful.
Vámonos a la cacho Mario” California is the youngest son of Mexico founded in 1850!❤love it
wow thats amazing. I would love for someone to help me with my story
This is awesome!
Man, thanks for doing this
Luciano had a beautiful handwriting
Orale, look at it closely Mario! 🤗 Lopez got Sinloa Connections.....Saludos para so Slater...
Amazing story ❤
We're so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing! ❤️
Now I know why Mario Lopez looks like my family burgos face
I have a 3x-great grandmother Ynes Burgos (d. 1891) from Sinaloa, her parents were Francisco and Lucia but do not know anything about any other Burgos.
Kind of proud? Dude be extremely proud beyond words
Mario Lopez baby 🎉! 🇲🇽👏💪
And this type of perilous journeys are still being taken in present day. Only today it might be more hostile and brutal.
he was returned to Mexico, meaning Watsonville
I am Mexican American. My dad came to America legally with a tourist from Mexico. He fell in love with America and never returned. Now both my parents are now U.S citizens.
Mexico is also in the American continent.
@@adrianaangelcoria1248 something that nobody ever seems to understand😂making the United States seem like if it’s all of North America
okay, you tell me how transformative this is but how can i do this?! i volunteer to do your show :)
You have to be famous or have money to have this transformative experience.
Que guapo es este hombre! Y que injusto es esto. Ver gente con armas obligando a otros seres humanos. Me hierve la sangre…
Creo que es la historia de Mario lopez, mas bien de su abuelo como imigro de Mexico hacia usa despues de haber sido detenido varias veces. Mario participo en Save by the bell y otros shows. Hoy en dia tiene su propio show.
Este hombre Mario Lopez no es una persona que quisieras en tu vida. El tiene historia con asaltos sexuales con mujeres y mujeriego aunque estaba comprometido. Una senora del trabajo me llamo 'Mario Lopez' porque mi nombre es Mario. Yo lo tome como insulto, y le conteste, ' Yo soy mejor que Mario Lopez.'
Hey Henry, How do I get you to do mine?
I would love to find out about my roots some day I don't know much about my family history or tree im curious to know where my people came from originally
If you're ancestors are originally from North America, the Olmecs
If you're from South America, the Inca.
That's as far back historically as most people know today.
@@D33Lux bro idk who you are but you are right my ancestors are the olmecs holy moly donuts
This man is a vampire that doesn't age much like Jared Leto and Paul rudd.
Imo. A person born between Alaska to the Patagonia, is American. North, Central, South. Native Americans to be correct. Sadly our history has been lost in translation for centuries.
Bruh the biggest state that still has a lot of indigenous people is Arizona some how I'm always seeing and hearing people not talk in English and Spanish but in their native language
I would have liked to see his genetic report.
El Ranchito is now part of the urban core of the city of Culiacan.
Wow he has his grandfathers eyes!
So moving💜
look into Braceros era.
Two generations to go from an immigrant to a tv star, that is why so many of us in Latin America wants to travel to US
@CanSoU why you dont make detroit great again, or kansas or ohio, or those 175,000 homeless that are in LA or those 52,000 who are living in NEW YORK, 75,000 in BOSTON?. make america great again cuz AMERICA....FCK YEAH.
@CanSoU you should see MEXICO as a HERMANO, dont as the enemy we literally would help USA if some china or russia war happens.
Such a handsome and seems very humble and nice
Sadly Mario Lopez is the type of person you wouldn't trust him. If you have daughters, make sure they stay away from him or their lives will get ruined.
What's so incredible, that's everyone's story
Props dude VIVA LA RAZA!!!
I really like these videos, greetings from Spain
Learning about the horrible things your ancestor did huh?
@@alejandraponce6214 so what? He shouldn't feel shame, he's not guilty of any of the sins of the colonizers.
Mario should of known about the history of Mexican and Mexican Americans in US since the beginning.
That was a real man. He would smack you for this victim mentality 100%. He sought a better life in a better place. For a reason. And worked his butt off to get it done and support 8 kids. He isn’t a victim, he’s a true man and went for “the American dream.”
Fact. I hate how all these punks today want to cry like women and seek pity. It's embarrassing.
Just a reminder that this amazing country is a land full of immigrants and their stories.
Mario paisano. Hermano, mexicano.
"...came to America"?
He came to North America(U.S.A) from North America(Mexico).
When we do not forget from where our ancesters came from, than we might build a better future for our children and for the coming generations too…. Even the First Nations came from some where many, many thousands of years ago….and once upon a time the ancesters of all human that live today migrated from Africa to different parts of the world ….
Too cool!
GREAT HISTORY!......MARIO LOPEZ BE PROUD!
Bendiciones
Hanford, California! WOOP WOOP!!!
It looks like these are also opportunities to kind of tell a different kind of history. If it’s good for the goose is good for the gander. What did Mexico and has Mexico done to other Latin American migrants in their country?
Mario talks to stars.
I on the other hand, would see stars if I talked back to my mother. But, I digress.
If there was Thirteen United Colonies back then, California, Arizona, Utah, Texas, and New Mexico are supposed to be Called ' ? I Don't Know what you Think 😕
Family established in Tijuana 1914 then crossed to SD legally 1925
Wheres his percentages? I bet at least half native american
López looks and maybe is at least 75% indigenous……
I agree.
How does Mario look the same as when he was on saved by the bell.
My parents came from England and Ireland. They had to have all kinds of paperwork, vaccinations etc and landed at Ellis island.
Who gives a sh$t
@@koiue.g8709 anyone who cares about their family and ancestry. Why does it bother you so much?
Ellis island wS a hellhole for lots of noneite immigrants like the Siciliano the whiter you were the easier it was to get in by other whites known fact, southwestern us was and will always be brown , if your brown you have been around!😅
Mario looks like his Grandma!
dang our relatives got removed from our motherland :C
From Culiacan, Sinaloa like El Chapo.
Let's not forger that California, Nevada, Utah, most of Arizona, the western half of New Mexico, the western quarter of Colorado, and the southwest corner of Wyoming belong to MEXICO.
No they don't. Mexico couldn't even protect the haciendas in northern Mexico from the Comanche, Kiowa, and Apache indios. The Californios were on their own. That's why many Hispanics in the New Mexico territory were glad when the USA annexed them.
"north of Los Angeles" lmao this is the Central Valley.
Where tf did they take such good pics of his grandfather
We are all immigrants or immigrant decent we all want to be more than others but in reality we all are immigrants, and the land and the whole universe belongs to God we should live respectfully and appreciative of what we have in love and understanding with each other.
Almost the entire westcoast from Oregon down to Cali to texas was all Mexico
So mario Lopez. Drop the last name Burgos ?
Correction. his Dad did not come to America, he was already in America. This is USA
I thank my grandpa for crossing that border illegally. Proud Guatemala here.
