Why where?
Hi. I have some questions and sentences below that have the word "where". I don't understand why the first one can have the preposition "from" before it when the idea I have is that the word "where" usually don't have a preposition before it.
1. Where are you from? I am from xxx.
2. Where have been? I have been to a store.
3. Where is it? It is three blocks east from here.
4. Where does it belong? It belongs to xxx.
1. Where are you from? I am from xxx.
2. Where have been? I have been to a store.
3. Where is it? It is three blocks east from here.
4. Where does it belong? It belongs to xxx.

Thanks. Why are we not supposed to have a preposition at the end for sentences 2 and 3 like the first one (in question)? I think the patterns are very alike.
Where are you from? I am from ***.
Where is it at? It is at a market.
Where does he live in? He lives in xx.
