Our German Family Tree lists a baker’s dozen of children born to John and Anna Lintner. I know that I have already written a few posts on this blog about children in that family, but today you will read the story of the parents. I will begin this tale by looking at today’s birthday girl. … More Anna and John and Their Legion of Lintner’s
There is plenty to debate in today’s tale. The date of birth for one character can be debated. One surname is often misspelled. Another surname has two possible spellings.
