Surnames: McCauley, Erickson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/zQz.2ACEB/583.1 Message Board Post: Hello Alison, I was excited to see your query regarding Jennie McCauley. Jennie was my Great Grandmother. I hadn't known she was born in 1867. Thank you for that. The following information I obtained by way of an internet posting by a woman in Idaho named Jennifer Erickson: Jennie's full name was Jennie Luella McCauley. Her husband's full name was George Eric Erickson. George Eric Erickson was born in August of 1862 in Sweden. He died March 1935. Jennie died February 28 of year unknown. They both died in Lehigh, Iowa. George and Jennie had seven children that I know of: Merle, Lillian ( my Grandmother), Carl (Jennifer Erickson' ancestor), Nellie, Walter, Martha, and Jennie. As I mentioned, Lillian Mae was my Grandmother. She and her husband, Arne Mikal Monson (from Norway) had 7 children: Edna, Everette, Edward, Alma, Emmett, Hubert and Harold (my Father). So, that's how I fit into the family. George Erickson's parents were Jonas Erickson, born in Sweden in 1836, and Martha Johnson, born about 1840, also in Sweden. Jennie's parents were James Lanthrup McCauley and Martha Jones. I have no other information on them currently. I hope this helps. I'm am constantly searching the internet for more information. I would be happy to share anything I come up with in the future. In the meantime, I would be interested in getting a note back from you, telling me a little bit about yourself. Regards, Michael Monson mhmslm@earthlink.net p.s. Welcome to the family!
