In total, there are greater than 3,500
individuals in the family database file, including up to sixteen generations
and thousands of descendants for these ancestors. A proud achievement
is the fact that we have pictures of all eight of Matt's great-grandparents,
as well as pictures of eight of the sixteen great-great-grandparents, and
even a picture of the patriarch of the Miller family, the great-great-great
grandfather!
It makes for an excellent way to portray the family history! |
To begin with the genealogy of our family,
we'll start from the ancestry of our children. View these reports and
family trees to give you an idea of the extent to our genealogy information.
Warning, some of these files are extremely large (ie. greater than 6MB), so
please use caution and only view if you have a fast internet connection.
These reports are in PDF format, so you will require the Adobe Acrobat PDF
reader to view the pages. Every effort has been made to remove the
private information of living individuals, such as birth & wedding dates &
places. You may need to zoom in significantly to view the information
in these reports.

Credits:
Now, credit should be given to the key
individuals who contributed a significant portion of the genealogy
information in this web-site.
- Dean
Wood is Matt's first cousin once removed descended (as is Matt) from Alma
Olinda Olson who along with her mother Mathilda Pettersdotter immigrated
to the U.S. in 1891 where they joined father and husband Christian
Ferdinand Olsson at Denison, Iowa. Dean has researched his Swedish
ancestry for nearly 5 years and has amassed a database of approximately
7,000 ancestors and relatives. He is an accomplished genealogist and
author whose research has contributed to two articles on Swedish genealogy
published by the Swedish American Genealogist. He is currently working on
his second edition of the Olson family history and maintains contact with
numerous Swedish relatives today to further his research and interest in
Swedish genealogy. He provided the entire Olson ancestry line which dates
to the late 1500s as well as much of the German Storjohann line available
here.
- Larry Miller - again, Matt's first
cousin, once removed, living in the Seattle, Washington, area. He
helped to get Matt started in the genealogy research back in the
mid-1990s. His trip to Luxembourg helped to pave the way for the
founding research for the Miller and Goeres family lines, including making
contact with existing living Goeres relatives in Luxembourg.
- Others who have contributed in many
ways include: Audrey & Gene Miller, Mary & Joe Gross, Keith & Marsha
Miller, and many other internet contacts.
