I'm SO Glad I Found this Picture!

Street in Viznitz, near the Ringleplatz





My Baba came from Viznitz, so I am absolutely delighted to have discovered this photo online.
I wonder, did she often walk along this street? Might it even, perhaps, be the street where she lived as a young girl? And do the descendants of any of her friends and playmates live there even now?
These questions, I cannot answer. What I do know is that this is a little piece of my family history.

No doubt she had occasion to walk that street, to visit friends, perhaps? How lovely to have that photo.

I found the photo online, Barbara, and I'm editing my post to make that more clear. My Baba came to America as a teenager during WWI.
I'm going to see what I can find out about Viznits in the time my Baba lived there.
