Views of Moorea

I just returned home from a trip to French Polynesia, my first visit to this part of the world. The first stop on my travels was the island of Moorea, just a short distance from the more familiar island of Tahiti.

From beautiful Opunohu Bay, one can view several peaks on this volcanic island. With it’s roots in the bay and rising out of the photo to the left in Mount Rotui. The tall, cloud-shrouded peak to the right of Mount Rotui is Mount Tohiea, the highest peak in Moorea. The flat topped peak to the right of Mount Tohiea is the Belvedere Lookout, and to the right of that is Mount Mouaroa.

Mount Mouaroa served as the island of Bali Hai in the book and movie South Pacific.

Moorea becomes even more intriguing as a storm approaches. Opunohu Bay can be seen in the view below. Mount Rotui, which separates Opunohu Bay and Cook’s Bay, is on the right of the photo, capped by the stormclouds.

Thian Hock Keng Temple in Singapore – 1

Thian Hock Keng Temple in Singapore was originally built in 1821-1822 in honor of Mazu, the goddess of the sea .  The structure was rebuilt in 1839-1842 using traditional methods .  No nails are used in the building.

Near the entrance two stone lions (often called Fu Dogs in the West) stand guard .  To the left and right of the main shrine are courtyards, each with a pot containing sand in which worshippers place sticks of incense.

The main shrine in the temple is dedicated to the Queen of Heaven .  Photography was not permitted in the main shrine.

A Foggy Morning in Singapore

I arrived in Singapore early on the morning of 29 March 2013, slept for a few hours, and then woke to a hot and foggy morning .  A walk around the area near my hotel revealed that I was close to several of Singapore’s most popular tourist areas, including the Marina Bay Shopping Centre.

The three tall towers of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel support what appears at first glance to be a large cruise ship but is the Sands’Sky Park .  A structure resembling a lotus flower houses the ArtScience Museum.

Near the Marina Bay Shopping Center is located the Singapore Flyer, the tallest ferris wheel in the world (541 feet tall) .  A short walk from the shopping center is Gardens by the Bay, home to the Supertree Grove, vertical gardens filled with exotic plants .  The Merlion, a mythical creature with the head of a lion and the body of a fish, is a kind of mascot for Singapore .  The lion’s head represents Singapore’s original name, Singapura, meaning “lion city.”

Breaking Down the Dziurzyński Brickwall with DNA

Way back on 13 June 2006, I wrote about the Dziurzyński brickwall .  My paternal grandmother, Marianna Dziurzyńska, was apparently born in Sielnica in the parish of Dylągowa .  I had previously found two other people who had Dziurzyński ancestors from Sielnica, but we were unable to prove that any of our three family lines were actually connected.

Well, it seems that on 04 Oct 1945, Dylągowa and the neighboring villages of Bartkówka, Łączki, Sielnica, and Pawłokoma were burned to the ground by the Ukrainian Rebel Army .  The parish metrical books were transferred to the Diocesan Archives in Przemyśl and, because the books are in poor condition, the archivists there are reluctant to allow genealogy researchers to examine the records.

Several years passed and we were still unable to find any evidence that our three Dziurzyński families were related to each other .  Finally, in the year 2011, Paulette Mackuliak and I started a Dziurzynski surname project at Family Tree DNA .  We enlisted volunteers from each of the three lines to take the Family Finder Test through Family Tree DNA.

The Family Finder Test examines autosomal DNA (atDNA), the DNA from the 22 pairs of human chromosomes that are not either sex chromosomes (X and Y) and are not mitochondrial chromosomes (mtDNA) .  This test examines a large number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on those chromosomes and establishes relationships between pairs of people whose DNA match.

Paulette and I waited for the results .  To our disappointment, the only matches were within a particular family line .  There were no matches between people from different lines and there was no evidence that people from different lines were related to each other.

Then, on Saturday, 09 Jun 2012, the results from a new participant came in (Participant 4 in the chart below) .  To our amazement, the DNA from this new participant matched people from all three lines .  In fact, Participant 4 matched all the other participants in the chart below .  We had our answer!  All three lines of Dziurzyńskis descend from a common ancestor!

Our problem now is that we still can’t figure out who that common ancestor was .  The paper trail simply isn’t complete enough to give us that answer .  We have, however, constructed a theoretical family tree that is consistent with the DNA information and with known dates of birth, marriage, and death.

Proposed Descendants of Theoretical Dziurzyński AncestorProposed Descendants of Theoretical Dziurzyński Ancestor

Now, if we can only get a look at those records in Przemyśl!
