I never win ANYTHING, but last week, I won a copy of Tips and Tricks for Deciphering German Handwriting. My review? I give it 5-out-of-5 stars: it’s great for the beginning genealogist who’s just starting out with German records and for experienced researchers who want to brush up on their translating skills.

This week’s #52ancestors is “At the Library,” so here’s a throwback to my trip to Dublin two summers ago. 🍀 My favorite stop was Trinity College Library, where I saw the Book of Kells and the Brian Boru Harp. Take a tour yourself! #linkinbio >> @applegategenealogy

Celestia means “heavenly,” and my great-great-grandmother certainly lived up to the name. This #52Ancestors unusual name features on the blog this week! #linkinbio >> @applegategenealogy

Churches were at the center of my Bluhm ancestors' story, but the churches, themselves, are the focus of this one. More church photos on the blog! #linkinbio >> @applegategenealogy

Dad would “dress up” in new overalls, but I’ve never seen overalls over a suit coat and tie!

I’ve never seen that before, either–I wonder where they were going!

Don’t they look happy! Funny to see his overalls over a coat and tie. And what sort of building might that be?

I was wondering that, too–I know it’s not what their house looked like. A store? A restaurant? An odd-looking church building?

I wish I had more insight there, but I’m just as confused.

I’m thinking they were ready to go but had a flat tire, or were low on oil.

I like that idea! That definitely seems like it’d work.
