The Romneys migrated here in the 1840s to serve Joseph Smith after having been converted in England.

Then they abandoned the United States and became part of "Deseret," the theocracy that Brigham Young illegally established in the Utah Territory.

In 1884, because of the federal laws against polygamy (and because LDS church leaders were directing members to establish polygamous colonies in Mexico), Miles Park Romney moved from the Utah Territory, where polygamy was illegal, with his five wives to Mexico, where polygamy was also illegal.

Son Gaskil Romney returned to the U.S in 1912 because of the Mexican revolution (Pancho Villa was not a nice guy to hang around with).

So, left England to become U.S. emmigrees to serve Joseph Smith, went to Utah Territory to become part of Deseret theocracy, left Utah Territory to go to Mexico to practice illegal polygamy, and returned because of Pancho Villa.

in 140 years, none of Mitt's direct family line has served in the military (except perhaps the Nauvoo Legion); isn't that true?

Yes, it seems that no Romney man has ever served our nation in uniform, that is almost 170 years of perfection, yet we have two of them in a row running for President.

That isn’t coincidence, or skipping a generation or two, or three every once in a while, like normal Americans do, that is a perfect record, a deliberate record, a goal.
