Died in Vernon County, Wisconsin, on this date in 1882: great-great grandfather Amund Amundsen Volden, who immigrated to Coon Prarie in 1857, during the early years of that settlement. His gravesite is prominently placed in Coon Prairie cemetery.

Amund’s daughter Marie, who married Gunder Torgersen Moen, was the only one of my father’s grandparents born in America, the year after her parents immigrated.

Followed the link from Geneabloggers. One of the best family sites I have seen. I especially like the items under the family tree link (surnames, dates, etc.). I never heard of TNG until I saw your blog.

Thank you kindly. I am fairly happy with TNG; have used it for two years. There is a WordPress plugin to integrate WP with TNG, which would allow the family tree to use the same theme, navigation, etc. as the blog. But I have tried without success to implement it on my site.
