I think Nabers and Jansons always had favorite dogs. They liked being in the picture, too, I guess. ☺
I inherited Ida's photo album, and there are tons of dog photos without people. I'm sure Ida knew each one's name...
I think all the family genes for dog loving got concentrated in one sibling. Back from the big move to Wisconsin, and we passed Campbellsport, where Mom's aunts were headquartered. Can you find out data about the two nuns and their history there online? I think our new Wisconsinite shcwester has no interest in doing reasearch there, but I think it would be cool to find out more stuff. I know they were Franciscans, and not much else. How did they choose that convent, I wonder? Love you, P
Blogging about my dad's side of the family, we realized that mom's was almost neglected. Even tho the Janson family tree's been done back to the 1500's, we know surprizingly little about Jansons in the past 200 years. This blog is an attempt to flesh-out those minimal facts, and to record what we discover. The cool part of blogging about family history is that writing it down forces a certain clarity--facts need to be checked, dates need to mesh--and if I make mistakes, they can be changed later. It's a win-win! :::::::: By the way, "WE" is Larry, researcher extrordinaire, and Marlys, grandaughter of Anton Janson & Margaret Naber Janson.
