Three of my grandparents are Icelandic. Thordyce Tomasson was my grandmother who lived in Park River, ND. Through her I have traced my family tree to the year 990. Quite a thrill. My mother's parents were both from Iceland and lived in northeast North
Dakota as well. Their names were Gunlager Johnson and Victoria Liefur. I believe both names were "Americanized" at some point in time. We hold a large Johnson family reunion every year which is always lots of fun. Thanks for your website. I hope to vis
t again soon.

Keith... I think your webpage is great!!! Good work! I was raised at Victoria Beach, Manitoba My grandfather was Guðmunder Olafsson. I used to visit Hecla often as a boy. Kristian Sirgurgeirsson was my Uncle. He was married to Myrtle Olafsson my fathe
s younger sister. We had an Olafsson family reunion at Victoria Beach in 1987 and I saw my cousins there though I am afraid that as we grow older we do not keep in touch the way we ought to. I also have just made a webpage and though it is still the wor
of an amature I will be adding much more to it aon a continual basis... Was very nice to see your message on Halfdan´s List! Best Regards, Myron Olafson
