My grandfather was the only one of six siblings who came from Germany to America. <br /><br />I sent her pictures that I had and she showed them to her mother,who is about 90, and my cousin said her mother cried because hers had been destroyed in the bombings of WWII. We had written with the aid of Google translate.Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02714440790407126206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454603795410144652.post-2751881895962865022012-09-27T14:36:45.167-07:002012-09-27T14:36:45.167-07:00Debi, I wish you luck with connecting with the own...Debi, I wish you luck with connecting with the owners of the house your 2nd great grandfather built.

My mother is 84 and just when she tells me she doesn't remember anything, she comes up with a small tidbit. <br /><br />I hope I'm as successful with the e-mail I sent the other day to the owners of the house my 2nd great grandfather built in the 1860's. It's been 3 days already so I'm starting to think they don't want to talk to me :-(Debi Austenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17409492643470603926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454603795410144652.post-49781896898860053832012-09-26T21:00:45.426-07:002012-09-26T21:00:45.426-07:00This is the beginning of a long relationship.
