Surnames: Anderson, White, Hanson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Wl.2ADIB/8802 Message Board Post: Iowa City Citizen (newspaper) November 21, 1919 Reunited after 50 Years Sisters Separated in Denmark More Than Half a Century Ago Meet in South Dakota. Sioux Falls South Dakota. Three Sisters Who Were Separated in Denmark 53 Years Ago, Have Been Reunited in Dell Rapids. The sisters are Mrs. George Hanson of O'Neil, Nebraska; Mrs. Hanna Anderson, residing in the East, and Mrs. Chris White, who has lived in Dell Rapids for 53 years. Mrs. White did not follow her sisters to America for some years after their departure from Denmark. This was the first time since the three sisters left their native land that they had been together. Following the reunion they again will be widely separated, for Mrs. Anderson will return to her home in Pennsylvania and Mrs. Hanson is arranging to leave for California. Last year Mrs. Anderson received wide recognition as a Red Cross worker, who raised sheep, sheared the fleece, spun the yarn and knit socks for soldiers.
