I am searching for any members of the WOOLWORTH family who may have lived
in, or are buried in the Fort Dodge area. I am trying to locate this information
for a Woolworth researcher from Seattle who can not establish a link between his
4-Generation linage, and the main WOOLWORTH lineage, which currently dates back
to the year 1330.
Thank you so much,

Hello! I am looking for any information on Joseph Adamson, Born April 27,
1857 near Swede Bend, Webster County, died May 10, 1940 in Boone or Boxholm, buried
in Piolet Mound. He was one of 21 children (ouch), some of them could have been
half-siblings. Three of his full siblings are Charles, Minnie and Andrew. Joseph's
mother was Malinda/Melinda Lagergren and his father was Peter Anders Adamson,
both born in Sweden. I would like to find the names of Joseph's siblings and more
information on his parents, especially dates of death. I'm pretty certain they died
in Iowa, but don't know where or when. Thanks for your help!

I am looking for Lily HALLER born Lehigh February 29, 1884 tp Joseph (I think)
HALLER and Mary THOMPSON MCCALL HALLER. She is my grandmothers 1/2 sister.
I have Mary McCall and 5 children, (widowed 1879 in Albia area) on the 1880
census. She met and married this man later, she died in Boulder, Co and is buried
in Fruita, Co. Her first child is Edella Emma McCall, my great grandmother, I am
finding this line very difficult to trace. I think they were very poor, maybe coalminers,
I am not sure. Thanks, Barb Spalding.
