I just ran across this site while looking for something else. It lists original settlers from MN, MI, and WI, who were part of Roosevelt's New Deal in the 1930's, and who settled in the Matanuska Colony in Alaska. It was of no help to me, but perhaps someone out there lost track of ancestors in the 1930's, and maybe this could be of some help. Ya never know! http://explorenorth.com/library/yafeatures/bl-matanuska.htm Regards from the frozen North: Kim
