Wednesday, June 10, 2015. Storytelling at the Global Family Reunion. Last Saturday I had the great honor of telling family stories at the Global Family Reunion. In New York. It was a deeply moving experience, and I look forward to returning to any stage that will have me. While the storytelling was free form, I did write a script for the event, which I have included below. For all of the family and friends who were not in attendance, I hope I can perform at a town near you soon. 8217;s service was at an ...

de Büren Family: August 2014
http://threebeehives.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 6, 2014. Family archives are varied not only by their historical import but also by the nature of the types of objects grouped within. The following book is a prime example. It is a 1967 French paperback of Stendhal’s Armance. The inscription says (translated from French): “To Alfred and Natalie Copponex from François Fosch, with gratitude for the enduring memories.”. Armance had a surprise for me that went beyond the story of two young lovers. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

de Büren Family: December 2014
http://threebeehives.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 4, 2014. When we look more closely, we are rewarded with greater insight. Last week I found a 19th century photo of the Château de Vaumarcus. The de Büren family home for many generations, and decided to make a high resolution scan for this blog. It seemed at first blush to be a standard shot of the castle on a sunny afternoon. Only while digitally repairing the scratches and affects of age did I find some hidden secrets. A male de Büren relative standing by the ancient drawbridge.

http://threebeehives.blogspot.com/2009/11/le-chateau-de-vaumarcus.html
Tuesday, November 3, 2009. Le Château de Vaumarcus. At first blush it is easy to lament that such a beautiful place is no longer in family hands, or to blame Henri de Büren for selling it in 1888. That would be too easy. After doing a great deal of research on. Vaumarcus – End of the 17th Century. Vaumarcus – 17th Century. Vaumarcus – Beginning of the 17th Century.

de Büren Family: 1548 Wappenbuch
http://threebeehives.blogspot.com/2014/11/1548-wappenbuch.html
Thursday, November 27, 2014. Having a distinctive coat of arms is great for many reasons, none more so than adding a level of certainty when chasing visual references to your family history. In pursuing a lead last evening I found another such reference. The author and painter Vigil Raber created in the 16th century a collection of 7244 coats of arms of families primarily (I believe) from within the Holy Roman Empire. The book is housed in the Duchess Anna Amalia Library. Living on the Little Mulberry.

de Büren Family: July 2014
http://threebeehives.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 26, 2014. As a creative and designer I have always loved passports, passport stamps and the design of official state documentation. I am in the midst of renewing my Swiss passport, so finding two early 19th century passports that belonged to my great-great-great-grandfather, Albert de Büren. How was he treated by the official who signed his pass? What uniform did the official wear? Where was the document stamped, etc., etc. The first document is a Prussian. Return route stamp from Munich.
