I'm sure you are right.
I don't know anything about language families native to Switzerland.
The census in Switzerland counts over 40 main languages spoken in Switzerland. 64% German.

In the US the census only counts 32 languages spoken at home. 70% English only.

Probably these are not comparable and this doesn't really prove anything.

1847, but I don't understand how that's relevant.

Sadly, yes. Immigrating and becoming Swiss is difficult, but it does happen. Swiss with a migration background suffer a higher rate of racial discrimination.

I don't know how this compares to the US.
