re: #122 HappyWarrior

That’s pretty cool.

On the Swiss portion, my grandfather was able to trace back to the early 1100’s.

Most other places go back 300-500 Years. But the Norwegian/ Swedish and the Western Slav areas only go back to the 1810-1830s. That’s unlikely to change, considering how the War went in those areas, and naming conventions among Nordic Nations. Norway did put up a huge resistance to Nazi Germany, that a country of its size normally would not be able to do.

Not to mention the resistance made things so restive, that well over 100k Nazi trrops had to be deployed to Norway, just to hold it down. That had to have helped the Allies.
