A family history experience shared byWanda Brown Marsh...
"Last year when we were cleaning out mother's home, I ran across a letter that had been sent to mother (Edith Lindberg Brown) some time back from a "Jorge Schwenson" who lives in Germany. I recently replied to the letter to determine if he was still there. It turns out that he had gotten information from Family Search on his pedigree that linked him to the Lindberg family. His great-great-grandfather Christian Nils Schwenson was a brother of Anna Jonason. As you may recall she was Grandpa Lindberg's (John A. Lindberg) mother. It turns out that he went to Germany when the Sven Jonason and Bengta Antonson family came to America. I gave him the reunion information along with my emails address, and we have since started to correspond. I will keep you posted on this new cousin."

to know who we are and where we came from."
