Kline

In this slightly belated Memorial Day episode of Genealogy By Tim G., I remember the life and service of David Kline Donley, who perished during World War I in September of 1918 at Prauthoy, France.

This month on the podcast, I detail some of the tinkering I've done with my server. I review my plans for this summer's genealogy bike tour of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, which will occur some time around the dates August 19th through August 22. These plans include photographing some Mumma and Marley gravestones, visiting LancasterHistory in search of the original marriage records of Rev. J. J. Strine and also to locate the final resting place of my direct ancestor Peter Mumma who died some time around the year 1850, and potentially meeting my nearest living relative in Lancaster. In the final segment, I read the letter that I wrote to my closest living relative in Lancaster, whom I believe is a third cousin of my father.

This month I announce the launch of my Twitch channel. Then I announce my top three goals for this summer's upcoming bicycle tour of Lancaster. Lastly, I offer some details of Marley and Rieker families, among whose descendants is that nearest living relative in Lancaster whom I hope to meet. Links, as always, are in the show notes.
