    1. Andersons in Missoula circa 1930
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Anderson, Haugan, Sterner Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/INB.2ACE/1509 Message Board Post: I viewed postings back to 1998 and found a handfull of references to Andersons. One caught my eye in particular, listed by Joe Booth. In it he mentioned a lady named Gudrun and wondered if Anderson was her maiden name or married name. Well, I am looking for twin brothers, Victor Anderson and Alfred Sterner. The family surname was Anderson, and all siblings but Alfred kept that. Victor and Alfred were supposedly in the hotel/motel business at the time Victor's eldest son, aged twenty, died in a car accident in Missoula. I do not know the son's name but he had three: Victor, Floyd, and Robert. All this comes from my mother in law Mildred Anderson Stone, Victor and Alfred's niece. She has since passed and this is a blank in my wife's family tree. Mildred was eighteen at the time of her cousin's death and since she was born in 1911 that makes this about 1929. Victor's wife was Gudrun Haugan and Alfred's wife was Sylvia (unk). One last hint of information was that Vict! or was in the clothing business before he and his brother Alfred owned/operated/worked at hotels. I hope that rings a bell with someone in Missoula and they can track down these brothers for me. Thanks from Lincoln, Nebraska, Myles
