Answer:

The Chinese Filipinos. They settled in the U.S. around 1750.

Explanation: According to en.wikipidia.org,

"Filipinos, who were American colonial subjects after 1898, migrated by the "tens of thousands" to Hawaii in the early 1900s. The first major wave of Asian immigration to the continental United States occurred primarily on the West Coast during the California Gold Rush, starting in the 1850s."
