And the worst of all, some of us are descended from snobs!
Others of us from (Scottish) shipwrights and seamen.
Pretty sure all of us have seamen in our background.

If one knocked up the upstairs maid, the bastard was shipped to Canada.
If one was a member of a troublesome religion, one was shipped to the Americas.
If one was a criminal, one was shipped to Australia.
