Anderson who served in WW II with the U.S. Army or Air Force. He was stationed or visited Melbourne, Victoria in 1942. He signed his name, military number, and wrote in a guest book that he was from Des Moines, Iowa. The guest book is now on display in a museum there. Bruce Buchan, a resident of Australia, posted an inquiry at the WW II yahoo groups website that he would like to know who this person is or was. I would appreciate any information you can email me that I may forward it to Bruce Buchan. He would be extremely grateful and would end months of searching for information.

An ancestor, Elkanah STRICKLAND, died abt 1870, in Fremont Co, Benton Twp, IA. and is buried just inside Council Bluffs, IA according to CW file of the widow. Can someone tell me which cemetery that would be? I am guessing it would be close to Fremont, if that is where he was living at the time of his death. His widow was later living in St Joseph, Buchanan Co. MO. if that is any clue. Thanks for any and all information Virgene in northwest Indiana

I am looking for any information and descendants of Soren Christian Pederson and Margarete C. Buttenchion. Margarete is a sister to my great grandmother. Their marriage certificate from Douglas Co. NE lists there addresses as Council Bluffs. Soren Christian Pederson went by the name of S. Christ he was born 1840 in Denmark Margarete C. Buttenchion born 1861 in Denmark. They were married in April 1889 in Omaha. they had a daughter Anna born 1891 and baptized at Our saviors Lutheran Church. S. Christ died and Margarete remarried and had another daughter then she died. Anna was raised by a family with the last name of Bremholm. I would like to know when they died and where they are buried and what ever happened to the daughter. also if any one has access the church records at Our saviors church that could look for info I would greatly appreciate it and I am willing to pay for copies. thank you Esther tripps@ncn.net

Dear Mrs. Daniels, I forgot to mention that if the information you want is in the book but not online (it is a work in progress) I would be happy to photocopy it for you on my next trip to the library. Mark

Dear Mrs. Daniels, Go to the Pottawattamie County site, http://www.iagenweb.org/pottawattamie, and check the "History of Pottawattamie County From The Earliest Day to 1907 that has some of the biographies posted. I used the book to learn about some of my family. Mark

June 18, 1894, he married again, his second wife being Miss Isabelle Siminton, of Cedar Falls, Iowa, who survives him. Deceased was a man of amiable disposition. He enjoyed having friends about him and his home was one of the most hospitable in the city. a lifelong member of the Congregational church and in politics a staurich republican. For fifty-five years he was a member of the I. O. O. F., joining the order March 5, 1849, at Davenport, and he and his first wife were among the first Rebekah Degree members, uniting with that branch of the order in 1851, at Marietta, O., whence their membership was transferred to Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. where Mr. Parker became a member by card of Mystic lodge No. 55 At 12:30 to-day, there will be a short service at the home, conducted by Rev. Dr. Salter, after which the body will be taken to the Union depot for shipment to Mt. P??e??sant, where the Odd Fellows will have charge of the funeral. MRS. S. L. DANIELS ESTIMABLE BURLINGTON WOMAN
