Dear Yvonne, Greg Holter, Greg Hanson and other Listers! Thank you very much to all of you for your messages and suggestions in regard to Ann Pelto Kuehmichel's middle name. I agree that LOKULA is a good possibility, being her mother's maiden name, but I wouldn't write that for sure as long as I haven't discussed it with family members. I have this morning written to the owner of that ancestry.com family tree, and I have also located names and phone numbers for two of Doris Pelto Olson's children in MN, which I will try later on today when I know I don't wake anyone up from his/her beauty sleep... By the way, you, Greg Hanson, mention the church records where George and Ann were married. Can you please tell me which church this was? They might have confirmation records as well, where Ann's middle name MAY show up...? Thanks again for your great information! Very sincerely yours, Lars E.

Here is the link to Trinity Lutheran in Brainerd. They have a booklet, in PDF format on the history of the church. http://www.trinitybrainerd.org/historyoftrinity.htm http://www.trinitybrainerd.org/Trinity_History.pdf

Here is Ann's findagrave listing. Maybe the cemetery has her middle name. http://findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Kuehmichel&GSfn=ann&GSbyrel=all&GSdyrel=all&GSob=n&GRid=69053172&df=all& > To: norway@rootsweb.com > Date: Mon, 25 May 2015 15:45:35 +0000 > Subject: Re: [NOR] What was Ann L.
