Speaking of Old Photos

My Great Grandfather Willem Rhijnsburger B. 14 Jul. 1852 - D. 13 Nov. 1925


This is the Rhynsburger/Bertram family. My father sitting on my grand father's lap. My great grand father to the left-center of this picture (with the mustache).

Those are awesome old pix!
What nationality is the name, anyway? German?

THEY ARE AWESOME OLD PICTURES. I WISH I KNEW HOW TO SCAN PIC'S IN.

Hi Rick. The ancestors come from The Netherlands. My parents are both from Leiden which is in South Holland and lies on the old Rijn River. It is the birth place of Rembrandt van Rijn.

Hey, How about a current pic of the garden??? Until I see it, I don't know how much to harrass you for free food.
