Dawn.. I am curious about your post. My grandfather was Michael Sutton and born in Iowa. Somewhere after 1910, when my mom was born, we lost track of him. Do you know anything of the W.A. Elliott that was the preacher? I have an ancestor, Albert Wesley Elliott and I show him being a preacher! You also mention the name Soderstrom. My mother had a cousin that married a Soderstrom and she had a son named Don. Any connection. They lived in Des Moines Ia, in the 50's. The last I heard of Don he was in the AF. I would assume him to be around 65 today. Thanks..
