Good morning from cloudy Minnesota! I'm hoping someone can help me locate my elusive Landstrom family. According to a Family Search pedigree chart Adolph Walter Landstrom was born in Clinton in 1895. His parents were John Walter and Olivia (sometimes Olive) Landstrom. Adolph and Bertha Estelle Gordon were married in Clinton in December of 1919. I have no birthdate for Bertha, but John was born in 1860 and Olivia was born in 1861, both in Sweden. I looked through the 1900 census, but had no luck. I don't have access to the Soundex (yet), but hoped someone out there was researching these names, or could help me locate this family. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Laura

Good morning from stormy rain-drenched Georgia! Not researching these names, but would offer a word of advice from one with vast genealogical research experience. Never trust someone else's research. Never.
