What is passed in the last years?
I investigated further, in the Internet, drove several times to the central office for church to Berlin, visited register offices and far Epding´s. I continued to look for and further, dared the leap over the water to Australia and the USA, got new data. I called with David and Caroline in Minneapolis. Which for an excitement. Also you were concerned with the family research and not continued to come. Now the family members living in the USA could be finally added.
Full euphoria has I all, me admitted used, written down and to a family meeting invited. I wanted to call the meeting off, since two weeks before beginning, only 10 persons had registered. But then, I got a call from Belgium, of Bertho and Jenny. “We come to your family celebration and bring along 33 used.” In the further days ever more registered.
We were 82 foreigner, whom met and as if used and friends went apart. Family stories were exchanged and the family family tree, particularly with the data made of Belgium was supplemented. All were itself united, it must family celebration take place, because the weekend passed much too fast. One year later we met with Bertho and Jenny, Zussen, to this large event. Came over 110 used.
Walter and Ilse in its hometown Lychen, Brandenburg organized the next celebration. A boat trip on the Lychener lakes, with 70 used, made also the local resident press curious. It brought an enormous article with photo over the family.
Thanks to all, which made celebrations possible and to all those in it to have participated, because without you there would be none.
Now it will organize again time a family meeting.
