Dachtera Immigration Story

 Finally almost finished. I don't like recording and hearing my own voice so it took a while to get around to doing the narration for my Dachtera immigration story.  It still needs some editing. If you watch it, I'd like to hear your suggestions for improvement.

Down a Rabbit Hole

 


I’ve been down a rabbit hole for a couple of weeks, but finally came up for a breath of fresh air. Finding distant cousins via DNA matches led me into a maze. 


I have a match who seems to descend from my paternal Grandmother’s line. She also descends from a line that seems identical to one that married into my paternal line. Both surnames match.

Veronica Reczynska was married to Lawrence Lewandowski. My paternal grandmother was Tekla Reczynska; I can find no connection to Veronica.  John Lewandowski married my great aunt Pauline; I can find no connection to Lawrence.

I confused myself and went round and round in circles for too long before I finally decided to let it rest for a while. This could all be just coincidence. I’ll get back to it after a while.
