Message Board Post:
Hello,
I tried posting a message on the
ancestry.com bulletin board, but that didn't work so
I sent you an e-mail and I am posting a message on this board as well just in case you
didn't get the e-mail. I am not very good with computers. My great-grandmother was
Petra Marie Norgaard born March 10, 1852 in Denmark. I was told that she came to America
with her sister to Nevada. I didn't know about all of the other brothers and sisters.
Her daughter, my Auntie Bess, corresponded with her cousin in Gardnerville for many
years. Petra (we always pronounced it Peetra) married Albert Lie (changed to Lee). He was
from Norway. He came to Nevada at age 12 with his uncle. I would love to know more about
her and her ancestry and would be happy to share what I have.
