Week 11 Prompt:<\/strong> Large Family<\/p>\n

This week\u2019s 52 Ancestors<\/a> theme is \u201cLarge Family.\u201dComing from lines where the recent generations were small families, a \u201clarge family\u201d to me is anything over three children! But I digress. When I saw this prompt, I immediately thought of one of my collateral families that I work with quite frequently. Since this is Week 11 of the challenge, the fact that this family consisted of 11 children is fitting.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Heinrich Schwartz (1854-1917) is the brother of my third great-grandfather Johann Schwartz (1856-1912). These brothers came from Echternach, Luxembourg, and settled in Aurora, Illinois, in the early 1880s. The brothers themselves come from a huge family of 17 children, but 10 of the children were Heinrich and Johann\u2019s half siblings.<\/p>\n

I work a lot on these brothers, as I am interested in my Luxembourg roots. So my research, while still a work in progress, paints a complete picture of the makeup of each of their families.<\/p>\n
