So, my Mother heard from my second cousin, once removed Ruth. She is my Mother's father's mother's brother's daughter's daughter. She's 82. My Great Grandmother (Bubbe Belzie Sternberg) had about 8 brothers and sisters. We have been able to trace back/down 3 of those siblings. And surprisingly, they mosty lead to relatives in Israel. Most likely, the other Sternberg's perished in the holocaust. Anyway, Ruth was enthusiastic about our Tree-in-progress. Suddenly, I have about 22 additional third cousins. It helps when one couple has 13 kids on their own. A baker's dozen.
I was driving along the continent's edge yesterday. The hue of the sea and sky were both this smoky gray/blue so you couldn't tell where the water ended and the atmosphere began. There was no horizon. Eerily beautiful. Wish I had a good picture.
Starting work today. Will keep you posted.
