I mean what is more American than taking something the British made and calling it ours?

The British invented "Catholicism but British", but Americans invented "British Catholicism but American"

This is true, but here in the States, the Episcopal Church is closer to the Church of England than the Anglican Church of North America is. The ACNA is much more conservative than TEC or the Church of England. For example, the ACNA doesn't tend to allow women to be priests (it's a diocesan choice).
