I’ve meant to do this for awhile: finally joined @Saengerrunde—the German organization in Austin. During the pandemic, I was able to dig up going from my known history—we moved from Germany to Russia to the US) and, with birthdates, having a rough idea when we moved to the US.

With that, able to dig up enough to confirm the ship and port coming to the U.S., confirm where exactly in Russia (Kandel), and trace the migration back to Germany itself.
But, I don’t really know anything about the heritage, even though my father was 100% of Black Sea German.
It’s been a lot of fun to figure out this much and it’s pretty cool there’s a 140-year old German heritage organization right here in Austin.
