Hello, Marilyn. I apologize for the long time. I spent two years working in Germany, and while I didn't get the time that I wanted to go poking around the records, I did find that my grandfather, Herman Keibel, left the town of Zielenzig in east Brandenburg (now named Sulecin and located in Poland), located 100 km east of Berlin, hopped a ship for Montreal in Hamburg, got himself to Chicago and was a baker's apprentice for a while before he went to Spokane. His time from Spokane until he died was all that I knew about before. However, I still don't know his parents' names or anything about the family there in Brandenburg. It would have taken a week to do the footwork to check out the records because some are in Sulecin, some are in Berlin and some are in Potsdam. I was located a full day's drive across Germany from Berlin, so I just never had the chance to take the time off. I also never discovered anything about my grandmother Theresia Epp, who was from Austria and lived in Spokane as early as the 1910 census. When I get a bit of a break from work I'll get back after all that.

But enough about me. What's new in your neighborhood?
