Hello All:
Please be patient with me, I'm not a geneologist...just curious about getting
into my family history. I'm looking for ANY info I can find on Mike Dahl, my
Grandfather.
1) Born 1888, SS card issued in Indiana later moved to Louisville KY
2) Married Alberta Wise or Robinson.
3) I surveyed one URL to locate where most of the DAHL's were from in Indiana
in the mid-early 1800's & St. Joe County popped up.
4) Other Counties may include LaPorte, Lake & Porter
I'm from Louisville, now living in NC. I would appreciate any and all look ups
to help me find out my family history! Thanks so much in advance.
Regards,
Steve Dahl (curlydahl(a)aol.com)
