1909 bol pravdepodobne najhorší rok Parker Lonzo Bátor Zimmerman života. On stratil obaja jeho desať mesiacov stará dcéra Ida May Zimmerman a jeho druhú manželku Mellie Bollinger Zimmerman. Pred Parker smrti v Kapskom Giraurdeau tornádo 1949, he would bury two more of his children. Both of them were adults. Viem si predstaviť, ako ťažké 1909
Novembra 1908, three bishops and an abbot dedicated St. Francis de Sales Church, “the Cathedral of South St. Louis”. Built to serve the growing German Catholic population in St. Louis, the huge church would become the home to many families including my great grandparents, Eduard a Magdalena Mosblech, and their 14 children.

Nedávno, I was searching for information about my Great Uncle Francis’ marriage to my Great Aunt Rosemary Kalt. What I discovered was an unexpected genealogy treasure, a picture in the July 5 vydanie St. Louis Star-Times of my great grandparents and 12 of 14 Mosblech children.

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. Často sa píše ako Edward, ale vyslovuje sa ako skladanie pomoci a ochrany, Eduard was as unique as his name. Snažil som sa o ňom veľa písať, pretože som o ňom počul
Pred týždňami, Hľadal som kópiu knihy Ivanhoe od Sira Waltera Scotta zo starej knižnice môjho starého otca. Dedko Gilbert P. Ellis had a library that he gave me in the early 1990s. These books and his desk are treasures that will stay with me until the day I die. As a kid, Sedávala som v ňom
Gilford Dudley Story (1797 – 1870) is my third great-grandfather. There are six generations between the two of us. I have just recently been able to find information on the Story family, one of the branches of the family my research had not turned up as much information on. Po celé roky, I could not find my great-grandmother 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. Ja
Dnes, Tam and I will be married twenty years. Bohužiaľ, life in Missouri is 20 rokov, 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. On July 27, 1996, Tam, my mother and sisters prepared the clubhouse for our wedding later that afternoon. They wisely kept
