CC to Ralph -- I'm looking (or rather, trying to look) into my German ancestry. I've been able to document back to the passenger list of the ship that my ancestors came to the United States on. Someone on ancestry.com has a family tree with my ancestors going all the way back to the 1500s in Rheinland-Pfalz, but there are no sources so I can't verify any of that information. Any ideas where I can look to find more information about births, deaths, marriages, etc.? I've looked and looked and looked on ancestry.com and I can't find anything beyond 1855, when they came to the US. I looked a couple other places as well but I can't really find much. If you have any ideas or anything you can e-mail me (abodamer at gmail dot com). I'd be super appreciative of anything![]()
It's Thursday so I have my post work night out for a drink. Vodka is made from potatoes, right? I think I can have one drink. Don't want to have more than that as I should probably be in church instead.![]()
With my swing, I'd be lucky to ever get sub-10 handicap. I have a flawed swing, no hope to be Tiger-esk.![]()
No, he's not into hockey, so he got a pass.And you didn't devorce him on the spot for not knowning who Guy Lafleur is???![]()
Congrats, dl! Nice job!
At the apartment and cleaning up. Not tons of stuff to get rid of, but still not the way I'd like to spend my day. I have all the doors open with the fans blowing. Hopefully that will make up for not being around for the next few days. A friend should be dropping by to check on the place while I'm gone. *sigh* Had to get rid of my skates.![]()
Good luck!Job interview today. Already made the first cut with the phone interview a little over a week ago. My suits don't fit very well, this will be uncomfortable. Not a job that I really want to do, but the days of being a dreamer must come to an end.
DIE, HEART! DIE!
There are different levels of fasting.Maybe you've explained this before, if so, sorry. You can eat lentil soup when you're fasting? I don't know much about this especially how the traditions/beliefs differ from religion to religion, but I was thinking that fasting meant only drinking water.
Most vodka is made from corn, though there is potato vodka.
If you can figure out what (specific) city they lived in, there's a good chance you can trace church baptism and marriage records. Part of my family comes from Germany as well, and they're recorded well into the 1500s.
I don't think I can read that long of an article on fasting. It will make me hungry.
Do you want me to start a "Tim Army has been FIRED!" thread?Am I missing any legitimate April Fools threads this year?
Should I start one? too obvious?
The Mormons have filmed Catholic church records back to 1799 for Boos http://www.familysearch.org/eng/lib...titleno=422095&disp=Kirchenbuch&columns=*,0,0. They can be ordered at any Family History Center http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/FHC/frameset_fhc.asp .Boos, Mayen-Koblenz, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany.
But so far, that also has led me nowhere. I think part of the problem is that I don't read German.

I suspect that lack of knowledge of German won't be a problem. Most such records are in Latin.![]()
I don't think I'd want anyone at work to know my screenname either.Our head Corporate PR guy that I work with is a BC grad. He has a good friend who he has gone to some games with, and we talk hockey quite a bit. Should BC win next week I am buying him a hat or a shirt. Anyway, he comes over to tell me he talked to this good friend and the friend is apparently aware of USCHO and I think posts. I told him I do, too, hesitated, and then told him to tell his friend that I'm Scarlet. And he was like "OMG - this guy said the BU fans were great and one poster Scarlet is one of the best ones of the group!" Heh. It worries me a bit that this guy now knows my screen name. Not that he has time to check out the site but I don't need one of the top guys in this department to know how much time I spend here.![]()
All right. It is 75 effing degrees out and it is April 1st. Scew work, I'm going golfing. Later lodge.![]()
