Hello all. I just wanted to check in and hope you all had a wonderful 2023. I am very thankful for all the messages from readers and hope to find time to work on my Kirsch family history book in the new year. When I started researching genealogy (around 2009) and this blog (can you believe it’s been almost five years?), I did not have my own family. Now that I do, I feel more motivated to find time to research and write and record so that I may leave something behind for them. So, from my family to yours, Happy New Year!
