William likely fathered [[Elizabeth Reeves]] between age 20 and age 40. Given that [[Elizabeth Reeves|Elizabeth]] was born in 1721, it is likely that William was born between 1680 and 1700.

According to [[Dean Randall Lindstrom]]: "I remember my grandmother, Minnie, very well. I was in high school sometime around 1950 when she died. I remember that Minnie's husband was always called Charles Lindstrom, but, his given name may have been Carl. My grandpa, Charles, died when my father, George, was a teenager in the 1920's, and before I was born in 1934. Charles and Minnie are buried in the Lindstrom family plot at Moses Hill cemetery northwest of Holdrege. Minnie's last name was Hedell before her marriage to Charles. She had a couple of brothers in Holdrege who I don't remember of ever meeting. Minnie and her brothers had a disagreement about something, and my dad, George, never communicated with his Hedell uncles or cousins. I don't know the names of Minnie's parents, and I don't know where they are buried."

== Identifying Minnie's Brothers ==

If we assume that Minnie's two brothers were born within 10 years of her (1861-1881), then only two candidates I can find are:
* John Albert Hedell (1866 - 1955)
** [[http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Hedell&GSiman=1&GSst=31&GRid=41041228& Gravestone]]

** [[http://www.nebraskahistory.org/databases/WWIdraft.shtml WWI Draft Registration Cards: 1917-1918 Nebraska Database]]
*** Born in Phelps County

The parents of John, Minnie, and Gustave appear to be:
* Charles G. Hedell (1835 - 1914) (aka Carl Gustaf?)
** [[http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Hedell&GSiman=1&GSst=31&GRid=41041010& Gravestone]] (Charles G.)

==[[Clan Linn in the Twentieth Century]] Entry==
Sarah was "an Irish girl of Dutch descent whose family owned an estate in County Tyrone.<ref>The Clan Linn in the Twentieth Century, p51 (Roger Linn, 1993)</ref>"

"Sarah's great-grandfather was Col. John Widney, who in 1688 accompanied William of Orange of Holland to Britain to support him in his war against James II. John Widney had loaned money to Prince William, presumably to help finance the war. Again in 1690 John Widney fought for William in Ireland at the Batter of the Boyne. Afterward he was given an estate in County Tyrone. Sarah Widney Linn and all of her sisters and brothers honored him by naming their firstborn sons 'John.'<ref>The Clan Linn in the Twentieth Century, p51 (Roger Linn, 1993)</ref>"

==[[Clan Linn]] Entry regarding the Widneys==
Colonel Widney's grandson James, whom we shall call James Widney 1st, married Mary Wilson, of Ballybay, County Monaghan, about the year 1750, and had six children who grew to maturity. James Widney 2d, brother of Sarah (Widney) Linn, was the eldest and, according that the law of primogeniture, inherited the ancestral estate. He was known as a country gentleman or Squire, not have any taxes to pay except to the crown. Being of an enterprising spirit he determined to case his fortune with the newly born country across the sea, and when thirty-one years of age sold the ancestral property and with all his brothers and sisters, Sarah excepted, emigrated to America.

They sailed to Londonderry on the U.S. Ship of War "Congress" (Captain Knox), which had been fitted for passenger traffic, and landed in Philadelphia Septer 17, 1784. James Widney bought six hundred acres of land in Path Valley, Franklin (then Cumberland) County, Pennsylvania, and lived there until his decease in 1835, at the age of eight-two years.
([[http://books.google.com/books?id=AxM3AAAAMAAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=the clan linn&source=bl&ots=3SLS2HB_r3&sig=pa-rJGpTrTYPMyIjIg8ZWFjY39c&hl=en&ei=Q2anTNeuKou4sQPrvJD1DA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CBcQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q&f=false p23]])

James Widney 2d, great-grandson of Colonel Widney, married in the year 1775, Ann Erwin, whose father was a minister of the Established Church of England at Aughnacloy, County Tyrone, and Hugh Linn married, 1777, Sarah Widney, a sister of James Widney. Thus we see the blood of the Linns and Widneys mingled in one family and that of the Widneys and Erwins in another. Subsequently a son of Hugh Linn (Hugh Linn 2d) married Ann Widney, a daughter of James Widney 2d and Ann (Erwin) Widney, she being his full cousin, and in that branch of the family of which the writer [[George Wilds Linn]] is a member is mingled the blood of the Linns, Widneys and Erwins.[[http://books.google.com/books?id=AxM3AAAAMAAJ&ots=3SLS2HB_r3&dq=the clan linn&pg=PA24#v=onepage&q&f=false p24]]

==[[The Matt Nelson Family (Nelson-Madison Heritage (1855-1975))|Nelson-Madison Heritage]] Entry==
<blockquote>Matt Nelson was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Niels Mattson of Langland, Denmark. This was a small island on the west side of a main island, Zealand, where Copenhagen is located. Matt was born on a January 25, 1855, and had an older brother George. Their father was a wagon-maker by trade, and Matt followed in his footsteps. Matt was known in Denmark as "Matt-Wagonmaker."

He came to the United States in 1880 with Hans Madison. His brother George came a few years later, then George's wife and children soon followed. George lived west of Goldfield[, Iowa] where he worked for the railroad.

Matt worked as a carpenter in Goldfield. He build the Blewett Hardware store which is still standing today [1975]. He also built the Braden home, and several other projects.

Matt saved his money and put his savings into 80 acres of land, which he bought at $5.00 and acre, a big price then. He built a small house upon it, and then in his spare time would go to the Boone river and dig up small seedlings to transplant for his grove. He also had trees on both sides of his lane.

Matena Christina Madison was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Mads Kartensen, also known as Fredericksen. She was born on October, 31, 1858, also in Langland. Her father was a hardworking man, and worked on the farm of a minister, later on, in a flour mill. Her mother coooked for the wealthy people. They had twelve children all born in their thatched roofed cottage. Her father died of mumps at the age of 52-53.

Matena also worked for the wealthy people. They always walked to their place of work, and never wasted a minute, either knitting or crocheting as they walked. They worked under a house-keeper who was always very strict and particular. All of the silverware had to be done separately and very carefully, never a piece touching another.

Matena and her brother Fred came to this country in 1881. She lived with her brother Hans in Webster City for a month, then due to poor living conditions, she came to Goldfield. Matt Nelson drove his trustworthy team of mules and lumber wagon after her, and they slowly made their way to Goldfield. It took hours of travel then, no roads, you followed your instinct and a faint trail.

Tena (as she was known by then) did housework in Goldfield for several families, but she came to this country for an entirely different reason, so on November 18, 1882, she and Matt Nelson were united in Holy Matrimony by Rev. Hendricksen. He was the pastor of the Lutheran Mission Church that had just been started in the Evergreen community, and Danish services were held there for many years.

They moved into a small house that Matt had built for them, consisting of a large kitchen, a pantry and a room upstairs. Later on a room was added to the back, and as their family grew, so did their house additions. Nellie can remember the old house very plainly, and that the children slept cross ways on the beds.

They kept adding to their land until they had 315 acres. There was a large fruit orchard with apples, cherries, plums, and even a peach tree. Also a large grape vineyard. And a large garden from which many cans of produce were canned. Other vegetables were put down in the cave for keeping.

Everyone did their own butchering then, neighbors helping each other out. They cured their own ham and bacan, and put some meat down in a brine. They fried down the side-pork and sausages, placed them in stone crocks, covered them with hot lard, placed a plate over the jar. This would keep for weeks.

Baking bread was a weekly job, and many loaves were baked at a time. They had their own yeast starter at first, then gradually a dry yeast became known. Butter was also churned, and the rest of the cream taken to the creamery. Eggs were sold or exchanged for groceries, and left over money used for other essentials. Poultry was raised by setting hens in long rows of nests in an empty building, upon their own eggs. When the hens hatched three weeks later, they had their own coop to raise their family in. Of course there was the chore then of feeding the chickens and 'picking' the eggs.

Things were very informal then. You never knew when to put on an extra plate for a visitor, or when someone would be there all night. Cornpickers, tilers [sic], any extra help were always overnight visitors.

There was always a large crowd around their table. Their mother always held morning devotions, reading from her Danish Bible then always prayed a Danish grace before each meal. Their bedrooms were always full too. Nelli and her children lived there after Ross died, then when Carrier died Edwin and Marion lived there. But there was always room for "one more." Small nieces and nephews would be there when there was a new baby at home, unless "Aunt Tena" was at their place. And grandchildren were always a welcome visitor when a new arrival came to their place.

This was a very musical family, all sang and played some instruments. The piano was never still, Edna playing or Marion when she was older. Marion also accompanied a lot with her ukulele. No need for T.V. or radio, even if they had been heard of by then.

They built a new home there in 1920-21. The old house was used for storage for years, then Matt tore it down saving the good lumber. In 1933-34, they bought an acreage a few miles east, and Harold hauled this lumber over there for another home. He hauled other needed supplies, and Matt with the assistance of Guy Agard built this home.

They celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary with an open house, and then on their 50th anniversary there was another open house. Many friends and relatives called both times.

In 1933, they held a farm sale and moved to their other new home where they live for eight years. They celebrated their 57th anniversary there by being remembered by Heinz 57 Varieties Company was sent a box of their products.

In 1934, Reuben, who had always lived with them passed away, then in 1940, Matt died. Tena lived with her daughter Nelli in Goldfield until her death in 1941. They both can remember when Abraham Lincoln was shot being about eight and ten years old then. They both lived a good full life, hard workers, willing to help out whenever possible and always ready to "listen."

== Wish List ==
* Ancestry.com has a nice [[http://c.mfcreative.com/affiliate/ceg/collection/KennedyTree.jpg family-tree visualization]] that would be cool to borrow/copy. -- [[user:Jim.lindstrom|Jim.Lindstrom]] 00:48, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
* I'd like the [[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:StringFunctions#.23urlencode:_and_.23urldecode: StringFunctions]] extension to be installed, so that I construct URLs based on people's names. -- [[user:Jim.lindstrom|Jim.Lindstrom]] 23:43, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
* I'd like the [[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Google_Maps Google Maps]] extension installed so that we can display map widgets in pages (rather than linking out to google maps) -- [[user:Jim.lindstrom|Jim.Lindstrom]] 23:43, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
* We could use a way of indicating estimated dates, especially in marriage and residence templates; so as to indicate time estimation without creating a template error or a [present value] result.--[[User:Elindstr|Elindstr]] 06:15, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
** This should be do-able. I'll see what I can do. What convention would you prefer for approximate dates? c. 1880? Something else? -- [[user:Jim.lindstrom|Jim.Lindstrom]] 16:29, 9 October 2010
***"c." works--[[User:Elindstr|Elindstr]] 16:36, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
* I'd like to be able to see a chronological slice in the tree. Who's alive in, say, 1850, and where do they all live?
* I wish that if someone on a page were related to you, the site would show you how you're related to them (e.g., by showing you a parent/grandparent/great-grandparent through whom you're related to the person) -- [[user:Jim.lindstrom|Jim.Lindstrom]] 03:34, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
* It's a bit odd that most of the starting points are now ascendants of Grace. Maybe this is begging the question of what this site's purpose should be. At first, I thought it would just be cool to combine the Linn and Lindstrom history on one place. Does it seem likely that folks beyond those families will be interested enough in this site to be offended that their family is not listed on the start? I'm not sure. -- [[User:Elindstr|Elindstr]] 04:39, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
** Other sites (e.g., rootsweb, ancestry.com) address this by letting each user/family create their own database. This achieves letting the family curate which people they want to have show up in their view, but fails at encouraging cross-family collaboration and integrating people across databases (i.e., does the person have TWO records? Who keeps them in sync?). Need to think of a better solution to this problem... -- [[user:Jim.lindstrom|Jim.Lindstrom]] 23:43, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
