Are you talking about the FB quiz? I grew up in the south and it gave me Jackson, Chattanooga and Columbus. That seems about right for me, too.

I got the north east tip which as a Brit is about right.Talking of accents,did you know a lot of the Pony Express riders had broad Lancashire accents ? They went to the States after the cotton mills closed because of the Civil War.

I hadn't known that, but it doesn't surprise me much.
There was a lot of movement of a lot of people after that war.
