Several years ago we decided to go to the place of my father’s childhood, and before we left, I was able to obtain a phone book. After I got home, I was impressed to look up the last name of my father, and decided to call the person I found listed. The man that I spoke with put me in contact with an elderly lady of 94 who happened to be the granddaughter of my great-great grandfather. We made an appointment to visit her and through her niece I was able to get four generations back into Germany and pictures of my great-great grandparents. It wasn’t too long afterwards that both of them passed away. By following the spirit to make this contact on my father’s line I was blessed.
We invite you to share your experiences with family history and temple work on our Family History Corner every other month. It gives us an opportunity to see how the Lord helps all of us do this sacred work. If you would like to share your experiences, please forward them to Jeanne Peugh at djpeugh@sbcglobal.net. We ask that your articles be 150 words or less.
