To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain perpetually a child. For what is the worth of a human life unless it is woven into the life of our ancestors by the records of history?
- Marcus Tullius Cicero, 106-43 B.C.

  1. Thank you! I found this page when googling Sophia Voellinger. These were my great grandparents. Their son John had a son named John and he was my father. I just recently got into researching my family and until I found your blog I didn't know my great grandfather's name, one census had it as Lizner, another had Lucas! Thank you so much, and good luck to you!
