Let's, uh, let's start with a little bit on your background.

過去簡單式

As a child, you were born in Germany about that I was abundant.

過去進行式

Germany in 1918 in April and the war was still going on in the first World War.

And don't forget, this is the first World War.

I'm old and my father was an officer in the German army and he was away when I was born, and that starts my family history.

But I want to tell you about who my their parents were.

Yes, because I want my Children to know what the heritage is if there was such a thing, is heritage or, uh, background where they come from?

A lot of people here in my retirement home spending a lot of time trying to dig up with the ancestors, were there particularly keen on what country they came from, what they did.

So my Children have to I don't have to go through if they ever want to know if they do want to know.

It's just my way of telling where they come from.

My mother was born in first, Burg and her father and mother lived in a what they call a family compound, which is outside of tone, which has the houses of each of the family members that were given by the patriarch.

You don't call it a farm because it wasn't.

Uh, my grandfather, uh, was one of the people in the family who forces and went to market to sell them his job.

His job was part of the family, raised the horses.

You know, it's one old family, big family thing.

They're about four or five boys in that, and he went to market on the train courses.

It was some town near in Bavaria, and he sold some horses and on the way back he was going on a train and he had the money from the sale of the horses.

And then some men came, took the money and killed him.

It was robbed and killed for the money of the sale of the horses.

I don't How much I don't know anything about.

Well, which made my grandmother a widow in this family compound.

She was no longer part of that family, Not meanly, but not well taken care of because there was nobody to support her.

You know, it was one of those mutual things.

So she moved into the city into the town of Bird's book itself.

And there was and the woman had a son who had gone with a whole bunch of American boys in 18 80 to the United States because they were bored with life in a small town and they wanted to be adventuresome.

I don't know how many and they came to United States is and came to New York.

They were looking for work, their course in the horse straight because that's what they learned and they went to.

Then they went to Chicago and they didn't like it there.

And then somebody said, You go down, too.

I have one of these senior moments which are very embarrassing, and that happened a lot.

Okay, I'm in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and they had one of those.

I have pictures off they and he was in America and he raised horses with these boys.

And at one point he wanted to go home to see his mother.

His mother was widowed, and he went back to Germany to visit the mother.

Here's this beautiful girl woman and has two Children by mother and sister, and they fell in love, and my grandmother, I want to go to the United States is wonderful, he said.

No, you don't want to go to Santa Fe were outside of town.

There is no cafe there is not no theater is nothing very elegant, and you can't wear your dress is in your jewelry because she was one of these women who was about dressed and so on, he said.

You can't come, but they got married in and they bought.

This is interesting because it's very important to me and to my Children, a swell because when he came back with a lot of money that time, German money wasn't worth anything.

But the point in this is really that he decided to buy some apartment houses, which were then for sale in Sidi Averts Berg.

They were on to three houses behind one another.

And then there was the field, with guards just a big huge garden and in the front where roses and in between her flowers.

The house is so from then on, our theory in the family was always invest in real estate.

I'm saying this because it's been the mantra invests in real estate because if you lose your money, at least you got a place to live so it was very important.

And that's why I'm making this particular point.

Now, Before we move on, I want to get a few of the names because you mentioned people as as just of their name.

But yeah, let's let's start with your father.

And I'm trying to think of what His first name.
