Marge GALUS Sandlier
Thirty-plus years ago my Mother and I began researching our
family history. My Mother kept all her handwritten notes in a spiral
notebook and plastic tote bag. In 1995 I started computerizing our
data. My
ancestors immigrated from Poland, Germany and Austria. They settled in
Nance and Platte Counties in Nebraska. There are also ties to Holt,
Madison, Douglas and Boone Counties in Nebraska.

Bruce SANDLIER
In 1995 Bruce developed an interest in seeking his
family roots. Bruce was originally from the East Coast. When we traveled
east to visit his relatives, we spent as much time as we could looking
for new pieces of his family puzzle. Bruce's ancestors settled in
Chester and Philadelphia Counties in Pennsylvania, and
in Camden and Gloucester Counties in New Jersey. They immigrated from
Italy, Ireland and Germany. Many of Bruce's maternal lines go back
to the colonial time in the United States and have been researched
extensively. After finding his link to those families, Bruce
concentrated on his paternal Italian ancestors.
Bruce died in August 2011 from prostate cancer. I continue to
maintain our webpage and answer e-mails about his family as best I
can. From time to time I do some additional research on his family
lines.
