If your great-grandmother had been Jewish, you might still be Jewish.

Probably true, LOL!

Great-Grandma Emma is the spitting image of me in her Wedding Photo to Great-Grandpa John, formerly known as, ‘Yohan.’ I have all the old photos from both sides of my family.

She was also German, though not Jewish. They met and ‘fell in love’ (or for more practical reasons, teamed up - who knows?) when they both worked at a bakery in New York City. She moved there with her parents a few years before John came to America. They were both late teens, very early 20’s when they met & married.

They later moved to Milwaukee, WI and had my Grandpa (1916) and his brother Lorenz, (1918) and then Grandpa had Dad (1937) and Dad had me (1960). :)

And that’s where the spectacular bloodline ends; my sister and I never had kids of our own, though I raised three step-sons.
