[Putting this post together was a big "ah-ha" moment for me. When I saw that Rudy & Emma Graber, my 2x great-grandparents, both came up on my report as being born on Sept 13th I though I must have entered something wrong. I double checked and found that I had that information from several sources for each of them - although not from birth records. I had never, until this moment, realized that they had the same birthday!!]
September 13 ~ On this day in 1853 my 2x great-grandfather
Rudolph GRABER is born in Canton Bern, Switzerland. Also on this day, seven years later in 1860, Rudy's future wife and my 2x great-grandmother
Emma Anna ZAUGG is born in Wayne County, Ohio.
[I believe this picture to be their wedding picture.]

September 14 ~ This day is marked by the death of my grandaunt,
Hildegarde Moore RITCHIE, in 1980 in Cleveland, Ohio.
September 16 ~ On this day in 1836 my 2x great-granduncle, David RITCHIE is baptized in Kemback, Fife, Scotland.

September 17 ~ This day is marked by the death of my 2x great granduncle
Frederick ZAUGG in 1928. This day also marks the death of
Ella Rosa [GRABER] SAURER, my great-grandmother, in 1963 in Apple Creek, Ohio.
(Frederick is Ella's uncle - sister to Ella's mother Emma [ZAUGG] GRABER.)
September 19 ~ On this day in 1872
David RITCHIE, my great-granduncle, is born in St. Andrews, Fife, Scotland. David is buried in Kincardine Cemetery in Ontario which I visited (and
blogged about) in May.
Besides the content, I sure like your layout. I need to learn how you put a photo on each side with your post in the middle. Nice post!
ReplyDeleteThanks Becky!! As far as getting the words in the middle - it's trial and error for me. I can upload the photos to either right, left or center, but the "preview" function rarely seems to show me how it will really look. So, I post it and then look at it and see where I need to adjust...
ReplyDeleteI love your postings, short and interesting and the pictures are wonderful. Once again thanks and I am glad I found your site
