How do these people connect?

Yup, a good way to find family stuff online is to periodically search for the names, even if you just did it a month ago.  Between Larry and me, the one who remembers to do this isn't me ☺.


These two obits were found in the Brainerd Dispatch, Nick Meyer's on October 23, 1969 and Marguerite Faust in the July 20th, 1971 edition.  So, why are they here?


Well, they were brother and sister, children of Math Meyer and Catherine Brausen.  Two of their sisters married Jansons--Leonard and Alfred--sons of John Janson who arrived in America with our Great grand, Joseph Janson.   See?

The aforementioned Alfred was the grandfather of Carrie, who's contributed facts and photos to the blog.


It's just cool to make these connections, I think.
