Does everyone have a migrant ancestry?

People with British roots can be found all over the world. Obviously from a colonial point of view in America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere. And of course we've got immigrants as well coming to this country from elsewhere, with roots particularly in Europe for example. It's extremely unusual for a family to have stayed in any one place for more than a generation. If I think about my own for example, I started off in the Lake District, I went to university in the Midlands, I came down to London to seek a job and I then live in Suffolk. So that's just one person's lifetime. It's always a good idea to think of your own lifestyle patterns and then you will realize what people did in the past. They didn't stay in one place, they did move around for whatever reason.
