New relatives

I have found at least three new relatives in a short time. The family reunion is coming closer and I have wrote about it in my genealogy blog.

And now I have few more relatives, relatives who were unknown to me before.

Our family tree is growing bigger and bigger....

The family reunion

Three years has past and it is time to meet the whole "clan" again. My mothers side of the family has a meeting every three years. This year the meeting is in the end of august.

I am waiting the meeting because I like to get acquainted with new people especially new relatives. I hope as many as possible will come to the meeting.

The old community hall of Leppäkorpi

The meeting takes place in Nummi-Pusula municipal, in the village of Leppäkorpi. There is an old community hall. Our ancesters have been bilding that hall, and that is why we are now meeting there.

Now I must write a column for the magazine of the family so I can send the paper to the print and we can send it to our familymembers.

So good night, sleep tight....

Family research

I made a link to my other blog. Family research page which is telling stories about my motherside family, and a little bit of fathers side too. The blogg is in Finnish.

Genealogy is one of my dear hobbies. Sitting in the National Archives of Finland is so fun. Searching all possibly knowledge about your ancestors is rewarding. And sometimes you find useful knowledge. What diseases has been in family and so on. And of cource has there been some bandits or pirates or maybe there is few counts or dukes.

In our family has been neither. Nothign very dramatic has came out. Useal living in the country side, farmers, smiths and millers. And we have been living almost all the time in the same area in southwest Finland.
