My great grandfather's name was not on my grandfather's birth certificate and his father seems to be a mystery. I am however working on uncovering this with the help of DNA!  There are a couple of possibilities at this point which would place each in Sweden, but no concrete proof, yet. But I do have Scandinavian roots, don't I? Thanks for stopping by!   Wishing you success in all of your genealogical treasure hunts!  Copyright © 2016 Cheryl Palmer All Rights Reserved

During one of our last conversations, I mentioned I wasn't happy with my weight (I hadn't been for many years). In your own typical way, you simply said, "Then why don't you do something about it?"  Period, the end, off to another subject. Of course, coming from you dad, that
