Greetings to everyone! I would like to tell you about how much we have been able to develop during our work in helping people to get to know their heritage futher back than 1850. This year of millennium celebrating really reminds us how important it is to have a perspenctive on our ancestors, as many of them are common to us au Sognings and Norwegians.
The developing of the Family Computer Database is my most time consuming activity this year. I just linked in person#31917. This database is a tool for bringing relativs together. Some of the Norwegian_Americans have been reminded that they have blue blood as they are decendants from the noble Viking kings of Norway, Demark,Scotland and Ireland.
I will soon start planning our tour for next summer to the Midwest for the '01 Sognefjord Stemne.
