I would like to know if Al O' Brien would have any information in regards to two individuals. Andy Ladine and Gust Ladine took turns working in the mines in Leadville. My great- grandfather Gust supposedly met my great-grandmother Emma Sophia Carlson in the mining camps in Leadville. She was a cook. I do not know for which companies they worked. My great-grandfather and his brother took turns working six-month stints according to the information I have obtained. The other six months they would return to Nebraska to farm. I have been meaning to check county marriage records for Leadville but do not know what year they were married. I estimate 1895. If you would be kind enough to let me know if you could be of any assistance it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Stephen Ladine [email protected]
