Promise Made to Abraham

Through the Miracle promised to Abraham "for a father of many nations have I made thee… and I will make thee exceeding fruitful…" Genesis 17:5–6, and now through the Miracle of technology, we desire nothing more than to Link Abraham's Offspring.


Blog Purpose - Linking Family

Throughout my research I have hit many dead ends. So in an attempt to continue the research I have emailed hundreds of people and posted so many Surname boards with the hope that there would be a link, ALWAYS to no avail!

Feeling frustrated that I have not found ANY links to date; I created this Blog in order to provide ONE location for ALL "cousins" with the following Surnames to post their information, with confidence that someday a Link will be found!

(Please note that ALL Surnames on this Blog are Jewish)

ADELMAN, PRINCE, MEYER, DINOWITZ,

SAMUEL, HOVISS, COHEN, WILANOWICZ

TIENEMANN, STOCKHAUSEN, ELKAN-JUDA,

BAER, BOSSON, SIMON, LUKS

WALLACH, KULIES, BOSSON,

Instructions: Email your family information along with how this information was qualified. (i.e. birth certificate, personal knowledge, Census etc.) to linkabrahamsoffspring@gmail.com

Verification: LAO will create a family group sheet and a Pedigree Chart with your information and will email it back to you to proof.

Linking: Once proofed and returned to LAO, your information will be entered into our database and proofed for Links. If a Link is found - you will be notified immediately.

Information: All Pedigree Charts and Family Group sheets will remain in the system for future reference.

Dead End

As I have only been doing genealogy actively for about 3 years, I have noticed a trend called - DEAD END!

I have loved researching my ancestors and am completely addicted to this new hobby. My family does not get dinner and my husband goes to bed alone – sorry Dan –but I am completely addicted to researching my family tree! My father and grandfather have never spoken much about our extended family - okay – not at all. However, researching my family tree has had a weird impact on me, the more research I complete - the more family I want to know! I now have this deep desire to know an extended family!
I have however found one similar key element to all the other researchers I have contacted with the same Surnames as mine as I search for family ties, we are ALL at a DEAD END and none of us seem to link. I can wallpaper a room with the amount of email replies I have received that all ended with the same words - "no connection”.

Really - how could that be, we all have the same last name! Thinking logically - I have decided to STOP SAYING NO CONNECTION as we must have a connection somewhere! So I put together this Blog to allow people with the same Surnames that I am researching to Connect. Maybe if we all stop saying no connection and looking at our genealogy as half empty - and begin saying - "Where is the connection - there must be one somewhere", and looking at our genealogy as half FULL, then I believe the connection will be found! This idea may be naive - but I am sticking to it!!!
Happy Linking! Your “Cousin”, Carole
