Remember June 10th

Now that summer is in full swing, it's time for our next meeting.  We will meet on Saturday, June 10 at 10:00 a.m. at the FamilySearch Library in downtown Salt Lake City (near the corner of West Temple and SouthTemple).  We will be provided with a tour of specifically Germans from Russia areas in the library. We'll leave the library better acquainted with everything GR for your future reference and studies.

We look forward to seeing you there.  The plan is to meet by the front door.

Thank You

A heartfelt thank you to the Intermountain Chapter members for your support in a difficult time for the Reynolds family. We recently lost our precious granddaughter in a car accident during a snowstorm. The personal cards, texts, and emails were greatly appreciated. The flowers sent to the funeral were beautiful. At a time like this, you really felt like family.

Request for Support

The Wacker family in Billings would appreciate any support in identifying the individuals in this photo. The original was not labeled so the surviving family is asking for assistance. The family is known to have lived in the village of Hussenbach, Russia. If you have any information regarding the identification please contact Dee Hert: deeehert@gmail.com. One of the individuals may be Katherine Wacker-Roth; another name suggested was Charlotte. Many members of this family are thought to have died in Russia and or Siberia.
