This
page is dedicated to the immigrants from Denmark and Norway who
came to an unknown land and settled Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin,
Iowa, South Dakota, and Michigan. My fathers family came from
Denmark and Norway in an attempt to find good farm land and a
better life. I am hoping to lay out what I know of their lineage
and that, someday, we will find the links to the "Old Country"
that will tell us what happened to those who stayed behind. NM Godskesen-Kilgore
