When tackling brick walls in the family tree, dead ends can be frustrating and time consuming.  To date, I have hit more than my fair share of those blasted obstacles, but one that consumed me for years was the missing pieces abut my great grandmother, Anna Strassberg. 

One night I was working on her narrative for my blog when I decided to look just one more time.  My hard work paid off, for I finally broke through and discovered a treasure trove of information.  This information really helped me put the missing pieces together, and it reinforced that I should never give up when I research those sometimes elusive ancestors.
