Welcome

This site includes scattershot, but hopefully accurate, info about the ancestors of my four grandparents:

– Emily Harriet Strother (1904-2000)
– Bert Laraway Smith Jr. (1903-1981)
– Lilly Charlotta Ljung (1894-1977)
– Fritz Stenstedt (1893-1963)

Photo of Bert and Emily at the beach, dated 1939 but seems later.
Bert and Emily, maybe later than 1939? Probably a beach somewhere in California.

When I run across an intriguing fact or story, mostly via ancestry.com, I drop it here. I only include stories about people who are no longer living, and in most cases are long gone….
