Wordless Wednesday - Sissie Feinstein - Early 1920s?
(I don't have a date for this photo of my grandmother, Belle "Sissie" Feinstein, but as she was born in 1914, I'm guessing the first half of the 1920s. Maybe a bit younger than this photo.)
This is such a wonderful piece of treasure. I wish I had soem pictures of my grandmother when she was a little girl. Make sure you keep it safe and pass it to the next generation
Transylvania, Holland, Alsace, Poland, England, Germany, Lithuania and Texas all contain soil upon which ancestors dwelt; Farmers, beekeepers, shepherds, tailors, blacksmiths, salesmen, clergy, judges, and doctors.
As I research ancestral lines I discover some ancestors celebrated Hanuka, others Christmas, and still others the Green Corn Ceremony; Jewish, Methodist Episcopalian, Puritan, Christian Scientist, Mennonite, Choctaw, and Cherokee.
I shall never find the records for my distant ancestors who either came to this continent by crossing the Land Bridge, or originally emerged from the Nanih Waiya in Mississippi.
I delve through obituaries, microfilm depositories, internet databases; I interview relatives, and rummage through attics.
What I find doesn't alter who I am; It illuminates the divergent, yet still intersecting paths of my ancestors.
