HULSLANDER FAMILY PICTURE

Circa: 1894-1889
Location: Germany
Hulslander Family
This wonderful old picture came to me via my father, Jack Roland Robinson, Sr. (birth name Roland Jack Hulslander) via his Aunt Silvia Rich.  In the picture are his Grandfather: Frank E. Hulslander (the boy to the far right) and his Great Grandparents (the individuals that are sitting, wearing all black).  According to my father, his Grandfather lived well into his 80's and passed away sometime in the 1950's.  We are in the process of researching all the names and ages of the family members in this photo and I'm trying to figure out where in Germany this picture was taken.  I will post an update as soon as I know.

WELCOME EVERYONE

WELCOME EVERYONE

Slowly but surely, I am getting our family blog, now officially named: OUR ROOTS RUN DEEP, up and running.  PLEASE bare with me though, I am still fairly new to this whole "blogging" world, so it's going to take me some time to get everything set up, so that it all makes sense to BOTH you and me.    

It is my hope that with this blog website, it will allow all of us the opportunity to see and learn many wonderful things about our ancestors.  I know that I am really excited and I hope that you are too! 

P.S.  I would love and graciously accept any and all comments and/or feedback.  This blog is for all of US and if there is something I can do better, please let me know.
