- quite lengthy (abt 55 Minutes) - many photos of her family, some early ones that I have snipped
- since there is a lot of photos, it is hard to make out who they are, since most are not labelled
- there is some family resemblance, but hard to make out - remember that her ancestors connect to the family of Erik Anderson and his daughter, Kristina Erickson married to Ole Skaret.
