Notes for Eunice May Helgeson:
Eunice grew up on the Helgeson farm southwest of Tracy. After graduation from high school in 1965, she moved to Minneapolis and graduated from Augsburg College in 1969. She then started working at Milton Granquist Company part-time her freshman year. Milton Granquist Company is a machine tool distributor.
I started working on genealogy and family history in 1977 as I was preparing for my first trip to Scandinavia in 1978. I published the "Helleson Family History" in 1983 and the "Helgeson Family History" in 1984.
My goal has been to publish a book that includes the parents (and genealogy information as far back as I can) and siblings (and their families) for each of my eight great-grandparents:
Ole Helgeson & Ingeborg Bjerkerud Helgeson
Juul Helleson & Laura Jacobson Helleson
Louis Rialson & Bertha Ellefson Rialson
Andrew Holm & Annie Pedersen Holm
