Good morning, List Folks! I may be reinventing the wheel (again), but I must let you know about a nifty website (nifty AND exciting if you have Norwegian ancestry!) The latest issue of RootsWeb Review tells about this web site.... Olaf Kringhaug, who was born in Norway 77 years ago, has taken on translating the "Nordmændene i Amerika" -- a 1907 book by Martin Ulvestad. The book tells of the early Norwegians who came to North America and where they settled. Kringhaug lives in British Columbia, Canada and has put this online because he wants everyone to be able to access it for free. The Washington State section of this translation is at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~maggiebakke/washington.html There's lots of information on Snohomish County, and even if you don't have Norwegian ancestry, you'll find the SnoCo section MOST interesting to read! Regards, Marge
