thanks. It would make sense that Anders Oluf was a cooper - it seems all the men on that side of my family were woodworkers of one sort or another. |

Lundgren could well be a Swedish name. I remember my grandmother telling me her ancestors went back and forth between Sweden and Norway many years back. I don't know if he was a brother, but I'll try to see if I can find a birthplace for my Anders Oluf . |

Wow! I'm overwhelmed! I've run across another family where a child that died in infancy had it's name repeated on the next child |

I think she is her daughter. The original census lists Mary as being born in Illinois.

My great-grandmother was known as Minnie, which has been known to be a nickname for Mary! |
