Hi Jean, Here is from the 1920 census.This is from the whole state of Michigan To type the dots over an "o" like this, ö , on your keyboard when you get to the o, hold down your alt key, and on your keypad on the right side, type in the numbers 0246. The ö appears .With a little practice it gets easier. Type in his name on your web browser and you will get many hits.

I was always told his name was Frederick Girgen. Now I find out it was really Joseph Godfred Gorgen. there are 2 little dots above the o. Does anyone have anything on a family by that name. thanks Jean ==== MIHOUGHT Mailing List ==== Houghton County Land Patents ftp://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/mi/houghton/land/houghton.txt ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237
