Due to the pandemic, the JH Family Reunions
have been cancelled for 2020 and 2021.
We anticipate starting them again in the summer of
2021. We will know better in the early part of 2022.
In the meantime, the JHF website is transitioning to
a slightly changed format, and I hope that not much
info will be lost. If you have questions, send Dave a
note. This is a bit beyond me, and it is going to take a
long time before I am competent at making the transition.

I was reviewing the Hansen stories on DNA written in 2017. I wanted
to say a couple comments that relatives had said about the lineage.
In 1982, Wayne Peterson came through and visited my family. He had
an impressive amount of genealogy knowledge, and what he was
saying caught my interest. At the time, he said that we were Danish.
That wasn’t entirely new information to me because in 1973 when I
was living in California, my dad and mom came to visit us and while
they were there dad wanted to go see his Uncle John. So we visited
him in San Bernardino, California. He played his accordion, what a
treat! Now he also said he was Danish, because the boundaries had
changed. Now, because my grandma was born in what is sometimes
called Jübek , Germany or Lubeck, Germany she never believed what
was said of her heritage. Even my Grandpa when he met my grandma
thought she was Scandinavian because of the spelling of her last name.
He must have been right.

I received the below letter and photos from Cousin Patty Olson today:
Just thought I would let you know that with joy and love we laid Moms ashes
with Dad in Willamette National Cemetery on July 5th in a quiet and private
ceremony. The new marker should be in place in about 4 weeks. She and
Dad are located in section 2, site 3316.
