Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: My family immigrated in the 1890's from Europe; however, I did have an ancestor that paid for his voyage to America by working for the wealthy gentleman who paid for it. So I do have indentured servants in my line. Their conditions weren't always ideal either. To read about indentured servitude, wiki has a great article on it.
