Yesterday, I had an incredibly busy, chatty, chaotic, nice and warm afternoon with a fifth cousin from #NewYork and some of our common cousins in the house of their ancestors in #Simonswald (mine apparently had branched out before).

Yesterday, I had an incredibly busy, chatty, chaotic, nice and warm afternoon with a fifth cousin from #NewYork and some of our common cousins in the house of their ancestors in #Simonswald (mine apparently had branched out before). The three groups had never met before and I had the responsibility of translating, while everyone was talking curiously in parallel 🤯
While I was waiting for the US cousin and her husband in #Hinterzarten before taking them to Simonswald, I also managed to photograph all the new cemetery burials since my last round in August 2023, so I can add them to @grabsteine / https://grabsteine.genealogy.net/namelist.php?cem=5279 soon.
As another side-quest while being in Simonswald already, I met an explicit offline-researcher and quickly photographed the 150+ pages of one of the church books he had transcribed decades ago.

@Flominator That sounds like a wonderful day!
