Fohr 2008
Last modified 7/1/2008One
day we went to the small city of Husum in a failed attempt to find
information about Pat's Peterssen ancestors. We did, however have a
nice day. We had a good bratwurst lunch then took a ride out on the
Nordstrand where we could see the island of Pellworm from which Pat's
ancestors came.
