First Slovenians in the United States were missionary priests
In the 1600s some Slovenians settled in small farming communities in Georgia. Slovenian priests built some of the first churches and schools in Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and neighboring parts of Canada.
The majority of Slovenian immigrants came to America between 1880 and World War I. The exact number is impossible to determine because Slovenians were often classified as Austrians, Croats, or other, broader labels, such as Slavonic or Slavic.
