Oops, I am wrong. Just check it and there were only 200,000 Germans in America in 1790 with 1.4M Brits.

Yes, the point I was driving at is that those whites that have been here longest are less inclined to identify with the old country - and for understandable reasons. The later arrivals had to assimilate into an already existing society and it must be said that they only partially did so.
