My ancestors, meine Ahnen

I am very interested in genealogy and have constructed a Family tree (see below). Over the years I collected old pictures and have finally scanned them. Please refer to the family tree picture to see where in the tree any particular person belongs. Some of the oldies are cardboard mounted (one is handpainted) and are really old. Ich bin sehr an der Familienkunde interessiert. Deshalb habe ich den unten ausgefï¿½hrten Stammbaum zusammengesetzt. Durch die Jahre habe ich viele alte Bilder gesammelt und jetzt endlich gescanned. Manche von den Bildern sind auf Pappe und sehr alt.

My grandfather's grandparents came from Germany. Their last name was Abmeyer. Do you know who the parents of Fritz were? Maybe there is some family connection.

These are interesting and old pictures and I would think they were taken in Germany. I have done a Family Genealogy history on the Sawatzky family from as far back as 1680 Hans Sowatzki b.in 1680 to 11 generation later in 2005, born in Manitoba,Canada. My mother was a Nikkel, spelled Nickel when they came from Russia in 1876 ad settled in the east reserve Mb., Canada. Is the name Nickel,A German name. I have not done a family tree on the Nikkel family yet.
