Oh good, glad we found “your” family!

Here is a more complete transcription of that 1940 census I posted. Apparently the family had lived in Mason, Custer, Nebraska:
1940

Living on a farm on Gillihan Loop Road
P. H. Petersen 42, born about 1898 in Nebraska, occupation farming

Next step is to use this information in the 1940 census to search on the Family Search website. You may know stuff that would make your search more successful than if I did it. Here's the link:

Family Search is free and easy to use and I think you'll have fun searching it.
After that phase, and if you still want help, come back to the forum, okay? I'll check back to see what more you've learned and want to learn.
Happy hunting!
