Following historical migration patterns, our original American ancestors settled in Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.  Eventually they moved further west, to Nebraska, Kentucky, Ohio, Iowa and Illinois.  The LDS immigrants headed west to Utah (and a few to Idaho) and settled in the towns listed here:

Later generations moved to Arizona and California and then back east to Virginia and Massachusetts again.  Which state claims your heart?

    I guess my heart is in Utah because it is my history and it is where most of my family currently resides, but I’ve always thought I would have liked being a California girl. I also have a keen interest in Pennsylvania possibly because of the mystery of my great great grandparents settling there from Wales (and then seemingly disappearing) but also because I think it is so beautiful there.
