Før Parkers død i Cape Giraurdeau Tornado av 1949, he would bury two more of his children. Both of them were adults. I can only imagine how hard 1909
November 1908, three bishops and an abbot dedicated St. Francis de Sales Church, “the Cathedral of South St. Louis”.

Ellis, lived
Eduard Mosblech is my maternal great-grandfather. Eduard was born in St. Louis, Missouri on October 24, 1884, to German immigrants Gustave Mosblech and Bertha Mosblech nee Monse.

Uker siden, Jeg lette etter en kopi av Ivanhoe av Sir Walter Scott fra min bestefars gamle bibliotek. Bestefar Gilbert P. Ellis hadde et bibliotek som han ga meg på begynnelsen av 1990-tallet. Disse bøkene og skrivebordet hans er skatter som vil bo hos meg til den dagen jeg dør. Som barn, Jeg pleide å sitte i hans
Gilford Dudley Story (1797 – 1870) is my third great-grandfather. There are six generations between the two of us. Jeg har nylig vært i stand til å finne informasjon om Story-familien, one of the branches of the family my research had not turned up as much information on. For år, Jeg kunne ikke finne min oldemor Dollie Zimmerman nee
Last Monday, I was able to scratch a big item off my bucket list. I attended a Liverpool Football Club game in person. Liverpool FC came to my hometown of St. Louis, Missouri on August 1, 2016 to play a preseason game with AS Roma. My daughter Caity attended the match with me, which made the day extra special. Jeg
I dag, Tam and I will be married twenty years. Dessverre, life in Missouri is 20 år, so I hope she doesn’t want to apply for parole. I’m hoping she decides to keep me around for a few more years.
