Found Guardian Angel


Now I have a name and picture to put with the letter of my "helper" to connect the generations of Rustemeyers recently connectly with the single letter found in the files. She is Theresia Rustemeyer only child of Joseph Rustemeyer, first son of Frederick Rustemeyer, all born in Germany, who immigrated from Germany, Joseph as a 9 month old baby with the parents. The letter from Mrs. John A. Long , postmarked in 1942 gave the genealogy of their family and helped connect 5 generations and still growing.
(I am still connecting decendents to the tree.)
With the help of: (and sometimes with 5 screens at the same time) ......

German Birth Records 1558-1898 (recently indexed and added to Family Search)
