Hello Jim,

I have been busy reading all the information on your web-site these last few days. I found out last week that my great, great grandfather and family came from Singsas, His name was Anders Olson Kirkvoldmo, and according to your list, emigrated in 1857. Can you tell me anymore about the family? I know my great grandmother Bertha lived most of her life in Belmont township, Jackson County Minnesota. Was 12 years old when the indian massacre happened in 1864, the family left the area for a few years and returned when the indians had settled down. She spent the rest of her life there. But I don't know what happened to the rest of the family. Would appreciate any information you could provide.

Thank you,
Deloris Anderson
