Hi Jamie,
My Great (Julius) Grandfather was your dad's Uncle. I some time ago talked by land line to your dad when I was putting together the family tree. As for Stella Anderson, I have talked and visited her a many a time, she is a grand Lady. My Grandson and I stopped by her place about a week ago, we had been farther west of there picking up farm machinery. I have tried and finally gave up on your sister that lives in California. Any question's please do e-mail dacea@rea-alp.com Dave

I was just cruising the Internet, and I stumbled onto your posting.
Ida Amelia Opager was my grandmother. My father was Manford Leonard Oman, her son. My father was born in Boyd, Minnesota. He left as a teenager after Ida's death. I was told that there were nine children in his family. Four of the children died in infancy. Mabel was the oldest. She may have had a different father from the others. Gladyce was next. She lived most of her life in New Effington, SD...married to Anton Swenson. Four children.. My father was next. He lived most of his life in Scappoose, Oregon...two children. There are two younger siblings, Kenneth and Alpha.
They lived in Medford, Oregon. There were references to Uncle Ole Opager in family stories in my youth. I live in Portland,Oregon. Interesting..........

Hi
Just read your posting, would you by chance have a picture of Ida Amelia? Her brother, Julius Hanson Opager, was my Great Grandfather. I do have a picture of Ida's mother, Caroline, not very good but ever still i'am glad to have it. I do have Manford born August 13, 1910 listed in the family tree book, as of that is all i have in his line. Also would you know if a photo is around of Karoline's husband Ole Laurits Gulbraudson Opager, They are buried at Saint Petries cementery north of Boyd, Mn. Thanks for now Dave

Hello Dave
I think I have a photo of my grandparents including Ida Amelia Opager and John Oman somewhere kicking around. I'm not home right now, but in the next week or so, I'll look for it.

Happy 4th
