I am attempting to find a little family history. I seems that all has been long forgot
regarding my Great grandfather, Helmer Nerby. My great aunt, his daughter and the last
relative alive, only remembers that his parents didn't speak English, and he went to
the Minnesota School for the blind. We do have a picture of him and his brother taken in
Winona, Minn. And as it turns out I did locate in the Woodlawn Cemetery 3 Nerbys without
dates.
So I guess what I am asking is do you know anything about Minnesota School for the
Blind? I have looked on the web and don't see any listing. And second, I want to
track Helmer Nerby to his parents and my guess is that the 3 in the cemetery are his or at
least related so how do I go about finding info on them. I think I forgot to mention that
my great grandfather was born sometime around but not before 1880, and went to the school
for the blind at the age of 6.
any ideas you have or information you can provide would be so appreciated.
Sincerely
Judith Nerby Garncarek
