I am interested in anything about either IDA ALBERTHA LEE or PRESTON YOUNG, their children, their parents, etc. including their life in and around Cardston, Cardston history, the service of the 13th Regiment (Preston was in) during WWI, and anything that will help me get to know my grandparents and where they lived and what they did better.

Ida Lee

I appreciate the input, but my grandmother was Ida Albertha Lee, born in Salt Lake City, moved to Cardston in 1902, and married Preston Young in 1903. She had a different father, but descended from Alfred Orme Lee (not sure if father or grandfather). Maybe their parents were cousins, siblings, etc. Thanks for the response. Larry Marwedel

Would you have a Walter Bjorkland in your family tree? I recently bought an old photo of him that was taken in Henry County, Illinois and would like to reunite it with its family.-Penny

Ida Lee and Jens Bjorkland were my grandparents. Are you a relative? Do you have information prior to Andrew Lee and Julia Olson?
