My Grandfathers oldest sister was Mina and he had many other siblings. His fathers name was Johannes and mother Ahn. Grandpa was born and raised on a little cheese garm in Ringebu, Norway. He always said he grew up in Kirkegarten farm. I was born andcraised in Fairbanks Alaska. My grandmothers name is Mary.
