Charles Haase, born about 1838 in Germany, died in Brooklyn 10 January 1891. Married to Barbara Reinhardt. Finding this headstone, which also reads "Private, co. H, unit 33, NJ infantry," was my very first indication that I had a Civil War veteran in my family and was the impetus for one of my most exciting lines of research.
Sharing my love of genealogy and my experience as a genealogist to inspire everyone to search out their family trees...the past, present, and future are all connected. Researching your family tree is like looking for a bunch of needles in a whole lot of haystacks, and then threading those needles together to tell your family's story. If you know where you come from you can know who you are and where you're going!
