Faith, Family and Marriage: Nana and Grandpa's Legacy

Nana (Edna) was born in 1888, and Grandpa (Edwin) was born in 1891. Their story starts back in 1861 in Dierdorf, Germany, with their grandparents.

Their family generations lived through immigration to America, the Civil War, a new century, World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II. They lived in the midst of major difficulties in their lives.

Learning from their parents and grandparents, Edwin and Edna each developed a strong personal faith and a close-knit family and marriage. With God's wisdom, they passed down that legacy to their children and grandchildren and many future generations.
