Since the leaves are raked and
the garden is almost empty, I’ve
been keeping busy indoors. My
husband gave me a job that took
part of two days. He bought
genealogy charts and ask me to fill

Several branches of our fami
lies can be traced to Switzerland
and also Germany. So far the
Herr’s, Landis’s, Shreiner’s,
Kraybill’s, Reist’s and Weidler’s

come from Europe. But there are
many more family trees that are
yet to be discovered.
Recopying charts includes so
many dates. Birth, marriage, and
death dates are considered to be
the most important. Dates, dates
and more dates but are they the
most important? Wouldn’t we all
like to be remembered by more
than three dates? Think of all the
things that happen over the years
the memories that accumulate
