On 20th December my aunt passed away so after her funeral service I was segregating her old documents. And I was so surprised when I found the black and white photography. It turned out it is a photo of my grandfather George - American born in 1900. The photo presents siblings of my grandad. His elder brother and sister. As I know his sister passed away in the USA as a little girl but I don't know her name and where is her grave but I am sure in Pennsylvania where she was born and grew up. His elder brother died in Poland.
My grandfather is on the left. In the middle there is his brother. 
The photo was taken in 1902 in Coatesville in Pennsylvania. As I have found it is a small city.
So it is the next step to my sentimental journey to the homeland of my grandfather and one more place to visit.
It seems like you should do more research and then plan a holiday to the United States to view some personal history.
ReplyDeleteAndrew, you are right . I must do more research. And I am going to write a book about my family history but now I am gathering files which is not simple because it was a long time ago ...But I hope so I will do it
DeleteSuch a precious photo to have of your grandfather's family. It's fun researching family, I think. Good luck with your project.
ReplyDeleteCynthia I believe I will finish all succesfully. And then it is going to be the overseas journey
DeleteWhat a wonderful find for you, and sorry you have lost your aunt. I have friends who spend many hours and travels in search of ancestry. I know most of mine dating back many years into Germany, and that's enough for me. Good luck in your search.
ReplyDeleteLinda it is very important to know about our roots because we enrich ourselves
