Announcement !!!

I received the following email from Jeffery Humm

He has written a book Documenting the Humm & Siener Family

Hello Steven!

My manuscript is nearly ready for the publisher and now it is time to gather my book orders.  This historical family heirloom will consist of 954 pages and will be beautifully and richly bound in maroon leather.  This book will include the entire Siener family lineage since their migration from Germany.  I estimate the book to cost around $65.00 per copy.  Are you interested in purchasing a copy?  If so, how many copies would you want for you and your family?  I will be required to provide my publisher with a total number of books needed, so I need your response as soon as possible.  I will be looking forward to hearing from you soon.

I am sure this promises to be a great investment

 

Those of you who check back regularly please be patient I have discovered a mountain of information,

it seems that every question I ask that gets an answer I create three more questions.

I am trying very hard to make sure this site is accurate so if anyone sees

ANYTHING that is not correct please email me

Steven Siener

I will gladly make any corrections. I feel that I am getting to know all these people from the past,

learning names and relationships has been like a treasure hunt that turns up a gold coin

every time I sit down to my computer.

My hope is...by creating this web site It will draw our family closer together

by learning about where we came from.

I hope everyone who views this site has as much enjoyment looking at it as I have putting it together.

Thank you for taking a look

Steve

 

Random Thoughts

I visit cemeteries and sometimes wonder what these people would think about someone looking for their grave and then documenting it in a way that their generation would never know...A Website.

The people I have been fortunate enough to document in this website lived in A world that, in relationship to what we have today was very small...I consider myself lucky to be the person to bring a small part of their world into yours.

 

I found this Poem and thought it might be appropriate I hope you feel the same.

DEAR ANCESTOR

Your tombstone stands among the rest, neglected and alone.
The name and the date are chiseled out on polished marbled stone.
It reaches out to all who care; It is too late to mourn.
You did not know that I exist, You died and I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you in flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled one hundred years ago
Spreads out among the ones you left, who would have loved you so.
I wonder if you lived and loved, I wonder if you knew
That someday I would find this spot, and come to visit you.
