photos of our Trønder immigrant ancestors. Have you told your ancestor's
story yet? If not, now is the time to get it written and have it published!
Submit your ancestor's story and photo to the editor by Friday, Feb. 2.

It is vital in
all cultural life to maintain a link between the present and the
past. If there is anything that history makes clear it is this, that
when a people becomes interested in its past life, seeks to acquire
knowledge in order to better understand itself, it always
experiences an awakening in life.
