Please connect with the Quittem family tree
and let's have a reunion - or a first time
meeting party. I would love to hear all about
how we came to this country from Norway and
how we got divided into the Quittem's and the
Kvittems. And all the other tid bits and gossip
only families know about each other. My father
was Leonard Quittem - from Wonamingo Mn.

Hello,

I do have family from Wanamingo, MN - however, they are from my grandma's side. My grandfather was Melvin Quittem (Kvittem). I'm not sure where he was raised (born in the 1920's).

Hello,

Are you related to Mel and Phyllis Quittem?
If you are, I would be interested in learning more
about your family.

I wish I had information to share, unfortunately I know very little about my ancestry. I believe that my grandmother Kay (deceased) was born in Minnesota as well as her first husband Dean Kvittem and one of their three children, Terry (my father--also deceased). With a last name like Kvittem, I figure more than likely, somewhere, way way way back, we're probably connected. Good luck on your search.

Hi Karma,

Please see my message posted on the Kvittem message board of ancestry.com for more information about you family history.

You are my second cousin, once removed.

I believe your lineage is John Borstad -> Johan Kvittem -> Ingmar Kvittem -> Dean Kvittem -> Terry Kvittem -> Karma

Please see my posting on the ancestry.com message board for the answer to you question about how we got here and something about our names.

Unfortunately, I don't have enough information to provide you with your lineage, but I know you are a relative if you are from the Wanamingo Quittems.
