Hi Jerry - Welcome to the list. Wow!! that is some list of surnames. Right off the bat I noticed SHOOP, which I am sure several of my other Shoop cousins on the list did as well. Which Shoop are you related to? I also noticed lots of Norwegian names. Were any of these in the Dane Co., WI area? Quite a few of the names are familiar to me, many simply being names I heard mentioned in the family. I've seen several of the names in the old address book of my great grandmother Dessa SHORT. Thank you for sharing your names... we all look forward to learning more of each other as the list grows and we become better acquainted. Gena
