I received an e-mail from my 2nd cousin Wendy (whom I've only met on Facebook - go social media!) late this afternoon with some very interesting information based on the marriage certificate for Frances Pressner and Richard Henneberg, my great-grandparents:
- Frances' father was Robert Pressner . . . and his name was spelled "Pressnir", which may have been a shortened version of "Pressnirvinsky".
- Frances' mother was Anna Haring, but misspelled "Herring" on Frances' marriage certificate to Richard Henneberg.

I very happy for you but I'm also jealous. Really, it's inspiration to keep working on those brick walls.
That's awesome! I just recently broke down a brick wall myself. Must be something in the air. = )
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! My toes are tapping and I'm dancing with you dear friend!!! How marvelous to have that brick wall down. Good for you! I look forward to reading more about your new found ancestors in the days to come :-)
Wow! I totally know how you feel. I went ten plus years before I could find my great-grandfather Archie Currie's mother's maiden name. Congrats!

I thought that was thunder I heard!
Congrats on the break through. Having nothing new here I'll do the happy dance for you :-)
A little late to the game, but I wanted to offer my congratulations and enjoy your happy dance.
