Each family has its own story. Some took longer than others to assimilate. My wife was born a SHROYER, an Anglicized German name. Her paternal line family arrived in Philadelphia “pre-list” (i.e., mid-1720s). It took until the 2nd great-grandson of the immigrant patriarch until a marriage partner wasn’t 100% German — Mary Ann Sullivan, whose paternal grandfather was Irish, but whose other 3 gpts. were German!
