In 1885 or so my great great grandparents, Christian and Cecelia Nielson came over from Jutland, Denmark. It is my understanding that Jutland is something like a county here, so that might not be a very precise way to say where they came from. But it is all the information I have ever had.

They came over and ended up in Albert Lea, Minn. And their name got changed to Nelson. I want to go there to learn more about my heritage. And to see how the danish culture may have effected my life.

I just seems like a fun thing to do. :) Peg
