"Genealogy: An account of one's descent from an ancestor who did not particularly care to trace his own. "

-Ambrose Bierce



WELCOME

 

My research started years ago in Burt County, Nebraska, the home of my paternal and maternal grandparents.  From there I jumped to Cuming County, Nebraska and Monona County, Iowa. My paternal ancestors are predominantly Swedish and German, and my maternal ancestors came from England for the most part.

I have started this website to share what information I have discovered about my ancestors. There are many people who have helped me out with my search, and I want to be able to help where I can.

On this site, my goal is to have a page for each of my Great-Great-Grandparents. On each page I will attempt to list a brief biography, reference books if available, register and ahnentafel reports, photographs I may have in my possession, as well as documents and maps of interest, and the fellow researchers I have come across through the years.

My Paternal Great-Great Grandparents:

Theodor PETERSON and Christina Johanna PILSTROM

Sven Peter SUNDBERG and Emma Mary SWANSON

Ignatz VOGEL and Wilhelmina Matilda LASS

William H. THOMPSON and Susan Letitia ARTMAN

My Maternal Great-Great Grandparents:

Albert CASTOR and Lavina WORRELL

Edwin D. MASON and Anna Theresa WRIGHT

Samuel CHRISTOPHER and Rebecca BENNETT

John H. BOWERS and Rosa Adelaide CUTLER

I do not know how often I will be able to update this, but I welcome any corrections and additions, and will do my best to update them as soon as possible.
