Conner- Connor Family

I found two more generations of my family on the Connor side.  Something that is interesting, is that the spelling alternates from an -or and an -er on the census records.
It is so fascinating when you are looking for, and finding relatives, you realize you've heard the names before.  When Grandma and I were looking at census records, and found a great-aunt who was living with her aunt and uncle, their names were in fact familiar to grandma, but she had forgotten about it.
Connections :)

Anena - Where are you?

So I excitedly posted about Nena - Anena yesterday.  Only to log in last night to go through the hints, and the other member trees that had her got switched to private!  UGH!  I think I got all the information I needed, but still, how frustrating!  I wish there was a way to contact them.

Nena - Anena

Today Grandma and I were able to track down my Great Great Grandmothers maiden name.  It took searching through each of her five kids to find one where she was referenced.  We knew she was from Denmark, but that was all.  Now I have found her on census records and even found her parents names.
The lady we always knew as Nena F. Miller is actually Anena Frederika Andersen.

Due to the Flu

Due to the flu hitting our house, I have not kept up on blogging information.

DNA

Both my husbands and my DNA results came back.  I've put together books for each of our families and we gave them to them for Christmas and Birthdays in the last month.  Our results were very interesting.
