Hans Dama and the Banat Encyclopedia
The Timişoara branch of the Romanian Academy of Sciences invited Hans Dama to work as a contributor to the "Banat Encyclopedia" (“Enciclopedia Banatului") to coordinate the contributions on various topics such as educational institutions, educational systems, history, church, art, tourism, administration, folklore, science, etc. as well as German personalities from the undivided Banat, with the help of compatriots from various expert groups. Dama sees this as an opportunity to present more deserving Banater personalities and their merits to the cause of Banat Germans in the encyclopedia and thus also familiarize the Romanian-speaking
readers with them. ~Nick Tullius
Well deserved Hans!

The DVHH has a new Hungarian Highlands Coordinator!
Welcome Lil Vogl!
It is with great pleasure that I introduce to you Lilien Vogl, who has taken on the position as a Regional Coordinator for the Hungarian Highlands. She is extremely knowledgeable regarding the Hungarian Highlands, and has done extensive research in that area. She is particularly well versed in the area of Veszprem County, where her grandparents were born. She has traced her family back to the 1750s, and has traveled to her ancestral village of Lokut, Veszprem County. She is looking forward to sharing her extensive knowledge of this area with others. She currently resides in Phoenix Arizona.
You can read more about her by viewing her bio at the following link: www.dvhh.org/community/reg-regional-coor.html#Lillien-Vogl
Lilien’s enthusiasm and knowledge of this area will be a great asset to DVHH. Please join me in welcoming Lilien to her new position. ~Dan Sedley, Volunteer Director
