Thanks for your post Brandi.My great grandfather, Peter Jensen Peterson definantly came from Denmark when he was a teenager.My mom was raised by him and my great grandmother after her mother died when she was 9 months old.She remembers her Grandpa telling about coming to America through Ellis Island before he died when she was 12 (1934).My husband and I were in NY once and found his name there.That was really a thrill as was going up inside the Statue of Liberty.
We live in north (Fannin County), Texas and hope you enjoyed your visit to our state this holiday season.We had a light snow last evening but it didn't stay when the sun came out today.Does it ever snow in Las Vegas?We lived in the SF Bay area and it never snowed there.We went to Reno/Tahoe to enjoy the snow.Best wishes for a happy and healthy New Year.Charlotte Coonrod Wells
