Love these family stories! My mother’s people are Prussian (Pałac Jankowo was built for her great-grandfather); marriage into a great Dutch house paved the way to America. The old home in Amsterdam is now a museum https://images.app.goo.gl/iGbk4wwRGtoZSgaB8 (my great-grandfather was very much the black sheep, as he fell in love with a maid and ran away to America to be with her).
Wow! What a story of adventure & passion!
Marvelous story!
Really liking the memoir that is gradually building on this substack, about different relatives and moments of your life and heritage.
Thank you.
