My dad (Erling J. - 87), myself (Elvin E. 63) my son and grandson all live in the Madison, WI., USA area. My grandfather, great grandfathers (going back to 1852) are all buried in Green County (Old York church) near Blanchardville, WI. It is so nice to go to one place and and see so many of my family members. My grandson is a first son of a first son... 7+ times over. Submitted by a proud grandfather.
