Duncan and Smith Tree Climbin'

Updated October 17, 2002


Researching family groups in the Eastern US. Including New York, Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois, Missouri, North Carolina, Long Island, New Amsterdam (later known as New York) Indiana, Virginia, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania,and Maine. Countries include Ireland, England, and Sweden. Surnames include several SMITH and JONES lines, as well as Duncan, Davis, Allen, Berry, Cummins (varied spellings) and many others. Special interest in Clanton family of North Carolina and Virginia at this time. Also very interested in the Wyckoff and Davis families of North Carolina and Virginia.

Am specifically trying to locate Amelia Austland-Ostlund Josephson Lundberg and her family. They resided in Storm Lake Iowa 1917 when a daughter Violet Rose was born. Amelia was widow (by family and per her report to her oldest daughter, Karolyn) who was married to a Josephson (first name unknown). Have located three sisters for Violet Rose---Karolyn b. 1912-Bunea Vist Co., IA (possibly Alta, IA), Alice Mae b. 1919 and Margaret b. ca 1921. There is one sister missing and I would love to find her, she was born about 1928-1929 in Omaha, NE. She was placed in foster care, almost instantly after birth as mother Amelia was placed in a mental hospital in Lincoln, NE. Any information on this child or this family PLEASE contact me! I need MEDICAL information, we have depression in the family and I need to know what kind of mental problem caused Amelia to be placed in the hospital.

Any and all ideas, suggestions and messages answered.
