    3. So my message below is an example of the formatting problems that have been discussed on the list over the last day. In my message below, I double-spaced between paragraphs but that didn't follow through on the list. My ISP, Frontier, uses a Yahoo webmail interface, and the email servers at Rootsweb appear not to faithfully reproduce the formatting for messages sent, This time, I triple-spaced between paragraphs.  We will see how that works.

Lars, There is a Lowell school in Missoula, Montana, and I think perhaps Lowell was a small place that was eventually incorporated as part of Missoula.  But I don't know that for sure. I don't know where you found the information about Lowell, but it might also be possible that someone made an error and was actually referring to Laurel, Montana, just a short ways west of Billings.  That is much closer to Glendive.   Greg Holter       From: Lars E.

I have another challenge for you today where I seem to get nowhere...: Ingebrigt Peterson Melheim, born in Hafslo, Norway May 12, 1863 married in Oslo Norway May 13, 1902 to Augusta Andersdotter, born at Hogsaeter, Sweden Nov. 20, 1877 In 1906 Ingebrigt and Augusta emigrated to Newark, NJ continuing the same year to Cleveland, OH I have found absolutely NO sign of this couple in the US except for a passenger record from 1928 when Augusta was back to Norway and reemigrated to the US.  Then we read about her the following: * Augusta Melheim, aged 50, married, was naturalized at Glendive, Dawson Co., MT i 1915 * Augusta Melheim travelled 1928 to Lowell, MT, a town which I cannot identify! It is so strange I can see no sign of her in any of my Montana records, so where were they? Any suggestions will be more than appreciated! Very sincerely yours, Lars E. Oyane
