Jim's Book - Dorchester, Big in
History and Happenings
Why are some people interested about the happenings
of the past;
while others could care less about where or who they
came from.
The answer - it’s in the genes.
For me it started when I was encouraged by Mater and
Pater to
write to the relatives in Germany during my high school
days. My
paternal grandparents, my dad and his brother had been
writing to
their kinfolk in first Bohemia (The Czech Republic) and
then
Germany ever since the grandparents immigrated in 1882.
Two
generations and four trips later, written communication
across the
sea continues. A vast amount of data about the Jantsch’s
ancestry
has been successfully gathered and this success led me
to an even
greater interest in the subject of History and therefore
the reason
for the following pages. |
