The Mattson and Halverson families emigrated from Sweden to Minnesota in the late 1870s. The Mattsons from the Lima river valley in the western mountain ranges hard against Norway. The Halversons (an assumed name for the voyage to America) from the eastern fjords of the Gulf of Finland, via Stockholm.

To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of human life unless it is woven into the life of our ancestors by the records of history?
–Marcus Tullius Cicero
All ancesters of the Neely and Warner families have been in North America for centuries. This ranges from 1609 Jamestown Colony up to Christinah B. Kinder, who was born at sea enroute to America in 1738.
We all carry inside us, people who came before us. ~ Liam Callanan
