Family history
Genealogy has been my hobby since the end of 1995, when I finally found time to start registering all my direct ancestors in a computer database. Since then it has become one of the most fascinating activities.
My intention was (and is) to provide my children with a detailed account of the families of their four grandparents. These are the principal names:
Lasarcyk Epler Nieke Böhlert
Many contacts have been established. More will be appreciated.
