My maternal grandparents, Paul and Dagmar Sevald were Ellis Island immigrants coming from Norway and settling in Chicago, Illinois in the early 1920's. In this blog I post photos, documents, stories, memories and thoughts about my Norwegian ancestry, heritage, family and my life growing up Scandinavian-American in Chicago. WELCOME!
On a 1937 visit to my grandmothers family in Norway my grandfather, Paul Sevald, poses with his father-in-law Nils and two of his brothers-in-law, Frithjof and Sigvold.
