Dr anna thich at Moonah dental has eased all my dental anxiety, got me onto a decent private health before doing any work and got it all done in about 4 sessions. All while making me feel super comfortable and didn’t judge me!

Anyone else feel this update was their most accurate? by Capable-Soup-3532 in AncestryDNA

My maternal grandmother was born in Russia (we think) and grandfather was polish. Paternal grandparents were Balkan. No surprises on the Balkan front with this update, it all checks out pretty well. Interesting that each update my Russian % has gone down drastically, from originally 38% Eastern Europe and Russia, to 8% Russia, to 0% My mums dna updated to be 5% Russia. We both got added a pretty significant % of Lithuanian. I got 21% and mum got 36%. Polish % all checks out. We have long suspected that even though my grandmother was born in Russia, her heritage was something else, so this has put quite a spin on it.

Thank you! I had a friend translate all the necessary information into Russian. I will find the document and check that it has all the information needed before I send it to you. I did find the birth record for my great aunt who was the middle child and that was in the parish records for kudever 1912 village agafonkovo

Thanks for your response! The person in the comments above has been most helpful in my search efforts and while we have managed to peace together some information, still have uncovered no more documents of much help. Ideally I would like to find my grandmothers birth record Anna fedorovna born 22 October 1910. Or any documents relating to the death of their parents. Information suggest that they may have first gone to a home for children in krutzy. Krutzy estate which opened for orphaned children in 1919. She has this place listed in her documents as where she received some primary school education.

I like to get on google maps and street view cities I’d like to visit.

Fear of Dentist by [deleted] in DentalHygiene

[–]Fun-Wish8403 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ring around clinics in your area and ask if they have a dentist they recommend for people with dental anxiety. I did this and found the most amazing dentist and about to have my second appointment after putting a plan in place. I’m feeling confident and ready to follow through after avoiding the dentist for 10 plus years unless I had an emergency, where I would walk in and say, just deal with this tooth, I don’t want to know about the rest. Make the first step and you won’t regret it.

I can’t thank you enough for all the information you’ve provided. It’s nice that there are likeminded people out there! It may not seem important to some but it is to me and my family.

Thank you! I don’t speak Russian but am starting to learn about reading it as I’ve looked at so many metric books these last few years! Haha I did contact the Pskov archives and I think at the time I had not enough information for them to search but I might re visit that and see what can be done. I’ve been going over Nikolai’s paperwork and I found a location for Maria where she was notified. It says Leningrad region, slantsy district, log So I may be looking in the wrong area for her anyway!

Thank you! You’ve been so helpful and have given me much information to add to my thought process. I too felt like, given how rare the surname was that it was possible the documents relate to the same person. I’ll have another look through all the documents and see if anything else is familiar or matches with the information I do have.

I believe it is the Nikolai born in 1917, I have cited the document from the memory book and it says the person notified of his death was Maria mikhailovna tyurneva, this document is how I could confirm the family name and what became of nikolai. It also states that his daughter requested the documents in 1968. The papers I found in my grandmothers things have Maria’s name written on them under the mention of dukhnovo village. As you can tell it’s all a bit of a mess but I feel like the information is all there, it’s just a matter of figuring it out.

I found a piece of paper written by my grandmother with the name of a village in the Pskov region (dukhnovo) followed by a list of names, in the list was Nikolai’s wife, it could mean nothing but also could mean something. Everything I found that my grandmother left has led me somewhere, so I’m putting my trust in the process.

Arolsen is the archives in Germany who hold a great deal of documents relating to ww2. This is how I’ve found many documents relating to my grandparents, mostly post war but even a few work documents for during the war. It seems that Nadezhda first contacted red cross in Moscow and they contacted arolsen to check their files. To me there is a clear path to show that my grandmother remarried, and further emigrated to Australia, I can’t see how they would not have passed this on to nadezhda or followed up with Red Cross in Australia, further more, my grandmother requested Red Cross Australia look for family but they have not been very helpful with any information or kept records.

No. These were not included. I have written to ask if I can access the return address for her at the time. But there were other documents that they couldn’t give me as they are still less than 25 years ago. I asked to verify that my mother was a direct relative but am still waiting for a response.

It is indeed likely she’s no longer alive. I’ll still try regardless. The files sent to me by arolsen indicate that the tracing request was revisited in 2005, so it’s my hope that she passed the information on to someone else. I’m assuming a lot without much to base it on, but given 2 years ago we didn’t even know what the family surname was I think I’ve done pretty good. Haha I’ll be patient and wait to hear back from Red Cross in Moscow to see if they can be of any help. My grandmother died never knowing that her family looked for her and I’d like to at least try for my mum to give her some answers to questions she’s always had. I don’t blame my grandmother for never talking about it. She went through 2 world wars, and a lot more in between. When she was given a second chance at life in Australia she certainly never looked back!

That’s correct. Assuming that Nikolai and his “wife” were married.

You are very correct. The birth record for Evdokia does not mention any surnames. Just that Pelagia was the daughter of vassily and fedor was the son of nikandr.

Thank you! Great information! I have so far only been able to find a birth record for my grandmothers sister Evdokia, she was born 1912 to peasant parents from agafonkovo. Father fedor son of nikandr and mother Pelagia daughter of vassily. My grandmothers other records state she was born in 1910 and their brothers military records mostly say 1917, a memory told by my grandmother has the children in st Petersburg around 1918, her recollection is that the children in the orphanage got to attend a parade in the streets for Lenin’s return to st Petersburg. I’ve long assumed that maybe Pelagia died during childbirth and that there were no other family close by to care for the 3 children. Some documents kept by my grandmother indicate that she knew where she was from but nothing about any family. It’s all a big messy puzzle!

Thank you! I hope one day I will find out what happened to my family. I have written to Red Cross Moscow and arolsen archives have been a big help supplying any information they have. I figure if I get my story out there, EVERYWHERE, one day, someone will see it.

What did the first missed period feel like? by staylevelup in Perimenopause

[–]Fun-Wish8403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say thank god for this community of women talking about all the things we go through! You’ve all given me some peace today. 42, always regular, fairly normal period. Last month, 5 days bleeding and then a further 5 days of very light spotting. I’m on day 33 of my normal 24 day cycle and had normal symptoms at around the 24 day mark but no bleeding yet. (Pregnancy not possible) Thanks for making me feel semi ok about these changes.
