Sadly, all my ancestors like my parents, grandparents, Aunts and Uncles are gone. Start this now while you still have them. I had an Aunt who started the family tree which she paid someone back in the 1970’s to research it. It connected me to thousands of ancestors.

Oh YES! We have a member at Projectkin.org who is working on a cookbook of old family recipes. There are so many forms this might take... Personally, I love the idea of creating a project that would combine that with photo and video feedback on recipes.🤔💡

#OTD 24th October 1900, Emperor Wilhelm II drove a test train on the Wuppertal Suspension Railway in Germany before the monorail’s official opening. So it’s an excuse to reshare this 1902 film of Schwebebahn upscaled using AI to 4K by @MuseumModernArt👌 teapawt.net/MrTimDunn/status/13014…
