From one of the promoters of the Garschagen Projects

Hi All Garschagens

I want you to say something about what is going on and a little about how did all this start. I can speak about know very open because some people did trust me, even we do not know each other personally. You may ask: How comes?

Well after more then 10 years and even more I discovered that my person belong to a kinship that have ancient origin. For a long time my surname “Zirbs” did not mean anything special to me. It come the day my Grandmother told me the story of the “Garschagen”. It come the day I started to read our family book and something happened: I found that we all belong always to greater things even if we do not believe in anything.

One day I started to surf in the internet and started to see if the magic of being part of a greater thing could be reality. I searched about other people with the surname “Garschagen” and I found a very little advertisement about an old Doll that was being offered or searched by a person with the surname “Garschagen”. When I read that advertise I wanted to try to contact not because of the doll but just to see if I will get an answer.

Yes I got an answer and some questions why I was writing and who I really was. My answer to that mail was to explain in my broken English that I was looking for other Garschagens and my incomplete name was listed in a Book, “Die Sippe der Garschagen”. I add the number printed next my name on the page of my generation in the book, not even having an Idea what it really was meaning but with the hope on the other side of that email would understand.
