I'M SO EXCITED..

A few days ago I had written to a potential German cousin. I got the reply and was invited to join their site. I have yet to figure out the relationship but I think perhaps first cousins twice or three times removed.

In some areas I had more information than she, BUT.......I have learned the names of my great great grandparents........She did not have posted the names of the other sisters children but I did find out the years that my great aunts had died. I have a little more to fill in on my chart.

I had offered to share a picture of the Schridde Family and the few documents that I have. It seems that her ancestor was a sponsor at the wedding of Willi Schridde and Anna Bartels

I feel like a kid at Christmas.

  3. It's always so exciting to find a new cousin who is also interested in genealogy -- and even more exciting to learn the names of direct-line ancestors. Congratulations! I hope that together you can share lots of information and continue to make progress.
