A link to my own direct ancestors along two lines (Kelm and Kirsch) is linked in the navigation bar (or click here). To ease myself back into my History of Martha book project, which includes much re-orienting myself and reviewing what I have already researched and written (easy to forget if you leave it for several months or even years!), I decided to make a user-friendly chart of Martha Kirsch’s direct ancestors for reference and to help me organize information in a more linear fashion. For those new to the blog, Martha Kirsch is my great-grandmother and focal point of my Kirsch family research. The book’s scope will be the Kirsch family tree, as well as a few of their connected families (Wurfel, Kubsch, Hancsh) and, of course, some Kelm family history. The time period spans 1781-2025, though, as you can discern from the chart below, I have recorded ancestors from before this time but whose exact birthdates are unknown.
