- Can anyone help me in Long Beach?
-
- I just received a card from my Dad's first cousin in Nebraska that
- another cousin who she has written since she was a child, they are in
- their seventies, has not responded to her letters since last Christamas.
- The cousin who is not responding is a retired librarian and was
- interested and very helpful with our Norwegian family research. Is there
- an association of retired librarians or perhaps someone have a passing
- aquaintance with her in the Long Beach Ca area?
-
- Her name is Miss Virginia OSSEN oldest daughter of Charles and
- Bertha (GAUT) Ossen. Chas died in Long Beach in 1969. Virginia had two
- brothers, deceased. Albert OSSEN. I have a note that he may
- have had a daughter in GA Starr Ingrid CHAPMAN. The other brother was
- Larry. There is only one grandson who is the last OSSEN namesake in the
- family. I thought the cousin in Neb had this information but she says
- she never thought to write it down.
-
- We very much would like to resume correspondence with anyone in this
- Long Beach Family family. Other cousins are in Denver CO, San
- Fernando CA, Portland OR, Everett WA, Scarville, Leland and
- Ridgeway IA (PETERSON, FOSSE), Warren OH and here in MN in Lyon,
- Murray and Cottonwood Cos and the Twin Cities, but no others with the
- OSSEN name. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This family
- origianted in the Leikanger area of Sogne Norway and emigrated to Big
- Canoe Winnesheik Co IA in 1868.
-
- Many Thanks,
- Lynn Olivier also on FidoGen and FidoEuroGen
