These
pages are for posting old treasures you want to share
with other family members.
We have
received old pictures, documents, and bits of
information about our common ancestors dating back as
far as the mid-1800's.
For
those of you who don't know who the people in these
pages are, or who need reminding, Herz Herzberg and
Jenny Pollock Herzberg were the parents of Hettie
Herzberg ("Bockie"). Jacob
Miller and Rosa Stein Miller were the parents of
Simon Miller ("Daddy Fahler"),
Hettie and Simon got married and became the parents
of Jean, Claire, and Prue Miller.
