You may notice that there is a “New Look” to the home page.
This change was brought about by the addition of Word Press to this site. Word Press will allow me to let everyone know the latest happenings and changes to this website by posts to the home screen. This change meant changing the look of the home screen and moving the main genealogy pages
The main genealogy pages may be accessed by the “Genealogy” tab at the top left corner of the screen
My German heritage
Growing up, I knew of of my German heritage but not until I began a search for my “roots” did I discover through the amazing research of my newly found cousin, George Valko, that my Grandmother was a Volga German.
I found that she was one of many ethnic Germans living along the Volga River in Russia around Saratov and to the south whose ancestors left Germany to settle in the Volga River region who would maintain the German culture, language and traditions.
Visit George Valko to learn more about Volga Germans.
