At the family reunion in Sörbyn we took a couple of large group photos. I thought the only way to indicate who was who in the pictures was with a map. I have one of the photos and a map of who is who. Eventually I'll get the other one done as well.
I got scans of some pictures of Dell (Leeman) Libby and her family. Dell was the older sister of Laura (Leeman) Anderson.
- A photograph of Charles Libby, oldest son of Dell and Frank Libby. Date and location unknown.
- A photograph of Dell and Frank Libby. Date and location unknown.
- A photograph of Dell, Roland (their younger son) and Frank Libby. In front of their house in Monson, date unknown.

The trip to Sweden was wonderful and I have a number of new images to add to the web site. I'm working on getting myself out from under the backlog of work that piled up here, so it may take a little while before I get them all posted. When I got home, I found some pictures of Raymond Anderson and Barbara Anderson waiting for me. I have to get the originals back to Barbara, so I've scanned them in here. First there are four pictures of Raymond Anderson (1, 2, 3, and 4) and seconds three pictures of Raymond and Barbara Anderson 1, 2, and 3).

We have been in Sörbyn and people have been asking us about where we come from so I've added a link to a web page with some maps and pictures. And to make it easier for people who wanted copies of the Pictures we have from the reunion, here is a link

I've done anything here? My continuing excuse is the waves of
viruses continues keeping me busy nights and weekends.
On Tuesday April 14th Fred Broman sent me a couple of pictures he took
on a snowmobile trip to Hultet (about 3 miles southwest of Sörbyn)
which is where Lars Olof Anderson lived prior to emmigrating to maine.

un-authenticated people in phpGedView. There really is not much
data there yet. It is on my to-do list but data entry takes
time. Eventually I'll add logins for those family
members who are interested. The phpGedView
configuration needs a little more tweaking, the update functions cause
some odd messages.
Uploaded several pictures:

Created index page and update log
for the genealogy section of the web site.
Added scans of a letter from Kristian Wikman to Lars Olof and Albertina Anderson on April 10th 1909. What I have is a copy of a copy and it has a bit chopped off. I'm hoping to get access to the original so I can get a better scan. The scribbles on page 4 were done by either Glennys or Norma (granddaughters of Lars Olof).
There are three images <a href="Anderson/Letter1909Page1-4.jpg">pages 1 and 4</a> and <a href="Anderson/Letter1909Page2-3.jpg">pages 2 and 3</a> and an <a href="Anderson/Letter1909Translation.png">english translation</a>.
Glennys and Norma also had a family bible that belonged to their mother (Aldena E. Minnett). I have scans of three sections, the <a
href="Anderson/BibleFamilyRegister1.jpg">first</a> has Aldena's
and John Everetts marriage and births listed and a penciled in death date. The <a href="Anderson/BibleFamilyRegister2.jpg">second</a>
lists children and the <a href="Anderson/BibleFamilyRegister3.jpg">third</a> lists deaths.

I upgraded the disk in my desktop and have moved the old disk (27 GB) to the server where this web site runs. This should provide plenty of disk space for anything I want to put here.
January 23, 2004
Installed phpGedView and populated it with the data from Gramps. At the moment all access is password protected. I'm not sure I want this data hanging out for anyone to see at this time. I added administrative IDs for Therese and myself.
