Här kommer mitt svar:

Hello Jurgen.

No, I am sorry, we are not relatives. I am a Swede. My husband is born in Estonia, but he is not born in this part of the country, but his family arises from this area.

However I can tell you, that the man Hoffman, who had a drugstore, used some sort of machine to make the water free from dirt. This little thing (perhaps: filter) is now owned by one of our relatives and is now to be seen in the Väike Maarja Muuseum.

About the church: no, I´m sorry to tell you that the tor now is on the ground. Last summer there was a hurricane, and the tor blew down. They are repairing it now, and in May it will be back again. Our relatives told us that all your relatives’ graves are in very good shapes.

Väike Maarja Kirik as it looks like today.

Slå upp de där fina sidorna som han gett oss!
