2010-10-10: See Wien, Meet Relatives
I visited the Prater, rode the Wiener Riesenrad, and took a walking tour of
Wien.
In the evening, I met Stefan and Martin Postpischil. My brother had located
them and wondered whether they were relatives. When I met them, Martin
(Stefan’s father) told me his grandmother, Hermine, had two brothers who were
killed in World War II, but he did not know their names. We knew our
grandfather Emmerich and his brother Maximilian were killed in World War II and
had a sister, but we did not know her name. So there is a fit, but no
documentation. (Months later, a genealogist found records confirming that
Hermine, Emmerich, and Maximilian were siblings.)
