    Has anyone ever heard of this name? He lived in a castle in Darmstadt Germany and
    used
    to go out nights to graverob bodies and bring them back to the basement of the castle.
    There, he experimented on them, electrifying the bodies. He thought that he was
    bringing
    them back to life when the body jolted, but that was not the case.

    Mary Shelley Found out about him and created the Frankenstein character.

    My goal is to see if there is some relationship between myself and him. I already know
    that my ancestors came from Darmstadt as well.

    I had a cruise set to go to Germany, but Covid put a damper on that. The cruise has
    been cancelled 3 times. It's scheduled for this October. We will see.

    Maybe someday I will find out.
