It looks like you guys might be able to get into America without a passport!
It says so in the Treaty of Paris of 1783, the treaty that ended the war between America and Britain.
"The navigation of the river Missisippi, from its source to the ocean, shall for ever remain free and open to the subjects of Great-Britain, and the citizens of the United States."
So unless they changed that rule, British people could live on the Mississippi river on like a boat house or something.
I did a tiny bit of research, and it looks like when America extended its border it was just assumed that the British didn't have access to the Mississippi anymore, but I don't see anything on them actually changing the rule. Unless there's some document that I have absolutely no idea about that says otherwise. -
