Descendants of Tore LOFTINGSBAKKEN

Horray! It is finally done and posted! Happy New Year Hans, Helga, Lisa, Jan, Thor, and all our family!

To all who have found this work in progress, "Welcome". Come on in and enjoy your stay. Feel free to bookmark this page so you can return often.

The following pages are a concerted effort of several people and are the result of many years of researching efforts.

To Hans Solberg, in particular, I give my heartfelt thanks and appreciation. Your continued additions and corrections are appreciated. You and Helga are wonderful! Your continuing efforts are the bulk of this information. Your patience with me, even when I am slow to make necessary corrections, and your keen eye for detail are wonderful. Meeting you and your family will always be a highlight of my life. Thanks a million Hans!

To Lisa Morken, I think I have all your information. If I have missed anything, please let me know.

To Jan Jansson I give thanks again for more information. It is because of the interest of family this whole effort exists!

We have yet another helper this year. To Thor Gaardner I say "Welcome to the family". Thor has made the most recent additions to this effort, and has given us some wonderful information. Thank-you Thor!

To all of you who have found us and contributed since the last update, again I thank you! To all of you I give my love and thanks. It is an honor belonging to such a family line.

As always, I realize I can and do make typing errors once in a while. Many times I have spent the wee hours of the mornings typing in information I have received. I am painfully aware that I make mistakes, but, unfortunately I don't know what they are until someone tells me. To that regard, know that I welcome corrections to this information, and will do my best to update these pages when I can.

Now here is a very important note, I have hopes of adding photos to this webpage in the future. I still await some photos for this project. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to look at a photo of each of these, our relatives. I would very much like to know all of you and to see our similar traits. For this purpose, I ask you to send me any photos you would like to see added. You can send them by email or regular mail. If you send a photo by regular mail, please send me a copy of your original, I am not sure I could afford the postage to return all the photos I hope to receive for this project.

One more request, if you have any family history story, journal, or personal experience you would like included herein, please send me a copy of it. The more information we have, the more "alive" these relatives become to us.

With All My Love,

Emily Pehrson
