Jon.

Just how old are Georg and Thillie Jorgenson. Peter also had a brother John and Martin in USA ,and this Martin was married to Mathilde (Thillie???). John was born 1860 and shall have lived in Pilchutt ,WA.
Is it possible to find Jorgen Jorgenson ,Peter`s son ,or to find Peter`s brother Christian in 1920 or 1930?? Christian also had 4 sons and 4 daughters. He shall still have been in WA in the 1900ths.

Erik.
