Brandner Search in Germany
In April 2004, Eddy and Marty journeyed to Frankfurt to explore the area where our Brandner relatives originated prior to emigration to the US. This narrated slide show includes photos from Franfurt, Karlsruhe, Bretten, and Ringlinken.

It took several tries to match the narration with slides, and to keep iMovie from stalling.
The pan of the Reunion-generated chart was created with Final Cut and imported to iMovie, as an experiment to see if it could be done. Next time, I'll take more photos, because more photos will make it much easier to illustrate the story.
