Did the Grimm fairy tales start in America?

The Brothers Grimm were Germans. none of their stories take place in what was then the American Colonial states. Few fairy tales ( or folk tales) have a democratic setting anyhow, preferring palaces, Kings, empires and such like) arguably the closest was Washington Irving"s Rip Van Winkle, who missed the Revolutionary War during his 20 year nap. That's the only one I can think of- Oz excepted, as that has a USA setting at least in the beginning and end. Fairy tales come from Europe- Europe to the Front! get he pun, You"re UP- up front!
