Of course, I just had to comment on your post about your family's 100 years in America. ;)<br /><br />You have such a wonderful treasure trove of letters, diaries, etc. within your care, and I'm so glad to see that you are sharing them so beautifully here on this blog.

Check out my post in two weeks on October 4th, and you'll see how these restrictions affected my family personally. Susan, I forgot to mark it too! Suddenly I looked at the date and thought, "My God! This is the day Lisi came!" and whipped together the post. I've stared at the postcard so often and thought of her arrival, I had to mark it somehow.Linda Gartzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00740477693031139484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3853410677893201016.post-15467876026538343802011-09-26T20:42:27.474-05:002011-09-26T20:42:27.474-05:00Surely a day to celebrate and remember.

That was the year my grandparents and mother came from Germany.<br /><br />My mother said she was coughing and her mother said "Don't cough, they will send up back!" <br /><br />They were admitted and proceeded to Duquesne, PA where my grandmothers brother had a job lined up for my grandfather.Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02714440790407126206noreply@blogger.com
