Try this site for newspapers

www.coloradohistoricalnewspapers.org
Just type in "Anders" and you will get some hits to look at.

It has some great pieces. There is even a Swedish paper to search also. But, you might try "The Colorado Transcript" first. I believe that is the one I found the Final Settlement article in.
I do not know of any Jefferson County cemeteries online that I would suggest.
Good hunting,

okay now you have me confused, should this person look in Colorado?? If so post the question in Colorado, not Montana. If it's Montana then clarify.

Re: Colben and Anders Lunde, Jefferson Co., CO

paigefrank77 — 2008-11-11 21:08:02Z

Don't let replies below change your search away from Colorado. While it might be confusing to some, there was a Montana, Jefferson, Colorado.

Re: Colben and Anders Lunde, Jefferson Co., CO

paigefrank77 — 2008-11-11 21:06:18Z

While there might be a Jefferson County in Montana. Don't be too quick to confuse the original posting. These 2 were listed in Colorado, Jefferson County and in the township of Montana.
Good Hunting,

Re: Colben and Anders Lunde, Jefferson Co., CO

paigefrank77 — 2008-11-11 21:03:45Z

Don't be too quick to jump to conclusions here. If you check the census you will find there was a Montana, Jefferson, Colorado. And you will find those 2 Lunde's listed there.
I thought the same thing at first, but, I checked

The LDS Family History Library online catalog indicates that vital records (births, marriages and deaths) for the county of Jefferson in Montana have been copied to microfilm (approximate years included 1895-2003). Those microfilms are available to be ordered and used at any of their network of LDS Family History Centers.

Re: Colben and Anders Lunde, Jefferson Co., CO

jabarkell1 — 2008-11-10 21:17:37Z

You posted this request under Montana, but your initials are for the state Colorado. Your request does state they died in Montana, so clarifying which state are you truly looking for?? there is a Jefferson Co Colorado also.

Have you found Georgia on the 1910 census? If not, might because the indexer interpreted her name as "Frances"!!
MT, Ravalli County, Stevens Township
Henry H Taylor age 63 born England.
That is where I got the idea the Taylor and Filcher family may be related because Ralph Filcher's father was John Taylor Filcher born 1838 England. They are found in 1860 Yuba County, California.

Noyd family

21wall — 2008-07-30 23:47:05Z

I am searching for decedents of H.F.Noyd of Waterloo, Montana. His given name at birth was Hans Frederick. Throughout his life he went by several different names. They include, Henry, Fred, Frederick, and H.F. He was married twice. With his first wife (Alice) he had a son Ray. Ray died in WWI. He remarried a women a lot younger than him named Kathryn. She apparently had a son Wilbur (listed on Census as stepson but later as Wilbur Noyd). They had Fred, Albert, Bertha, and Catherine. I know that Catherine was married and her last name was Kuki. I don't know if any of these children had kids or not. I would like to find any decedents to tell them more about our family. I have a lot of information about the rest of the family. Also I would like obituaries for any of these people. I know that Catherine died in 2004 in Whitehall.

Re: gold mines

DianeCaudle73 — 2007-09-05 18:26:21Z

I never dreamed you would go to so much trouble on my behalf or I would have give "my" Albin's birth date. He was born 12-23-1868 so he would have been 49 in 1917. He came to the USA in 1887 before Ellis Island so I haven't found him there either.
I have very little to go on but a picture of him and a note in my Grandmother's stuff that says "Fredrika's (my greatgrandmother) brother, Albin Johnson, lived in Montana" and family recollection that Fredrika used to travel to Helena, Montana and visit her brother.
It is virtually a dead end especially if the lister did find the right one and he had no family. Oh well, we all need one brick wall to keep us looking.
Thank you for your help.
Diane

Re: gold mines

DianeCaudle73 — 2007-09-04 23:26:57Z

Thank you Joe, for answering my query. I have a picture of my Albin Johnson in which he looks in his 30s possibly. He is very well dressed in a suit and tie. He has a pin in his lapel that I am not able to blow up a lot but I was hoping to send it to a library or museum in the Helena region to see if it looks familiar to anyone. I thought if he had worked for a specific mine, it might be a fraternity but absolutely a shot in the dark.
He also may have worked for the railroad when he was young. The Albin information provided by a volunteer on this site is about a single man whose past sounds a lot like my Albin. If it is my Albin, I have no family to follow for him. Sad.

gold mines

DianeCaudle73 — 2007-09-03 14:18:40Z

Would men in the late 1800s have owned gold mines around Clancy in Jefferson Co. or are there big ones they would have just worked in? I am trying to trace an Albin Johnson who supposedly worked in the gold field for 50 years, lived in Clancy and died in Helena. One of your listers found an Albin for me and I located the cemetery and was sent an obit but I don't know how to prove he is mine. I thought maybe there is a state mining something that might have information on a miner.
Thank you for any hints.

I believe the John T. Filcher you are asking about might be my great grandfather, John Taylor Filcher. My grandfather was his son Ralph, who died in Butte in 1937. My father was Ralph's son Joseph Benjamin who died in Stevensville in 1971.

Yes, I just finished a book about our Mother which I took with me to a family reunion in Helena in June. All this info was in there, but George hadn't seen it when he last talked to you. Our Filcher ancestors were Morman so I have found a lot of info on them on the LDS website. Thx for the info re findagrave I had not known about that one.

Re: JohnT. Filcher

LOLOBO — 2008-07-30 18:09:19Z

George is my brother. Georgia is our Mother. The Taylor's were not relatives, just took her in at age 3 wks, when her mother died. Only info we have is Father, Jacques (James) Hebert, and Mother Grace (Graziella)Demers Hebert, from Ware,or Revere, Mass. Father from Quebec we think. Grace died in 1903 and is buried in Missoula at the Catholic cemetery. Who is the tmZang who was also interested in this, do you know?

Seeking information on the family of Herman George BURTNER (3 X great granddaughter of Alexander NEGLEY) and Vivian Elda JOHNSON (see below).

What I know is shown below. When and where did Vivian Elda Johnson Burtner die (or is she still alive)?

I have minimal information on their four children and would like addition information about where they were born; spouses; and children.

This is part of a major effort to trace the descendants of Alexander Negley (1734-1809) of Pittsburgh, PA.

Willing to share information.

Re: gold mines

colojoe — 2007-09-04 14:39:50Z

My family lore includes stories of individual miners leasing specific parts of mines from their owners and working those as independent operators. These happened in Jefferson County in the late 1870s and later in Butte.

This doesn't answer your question about who might have records you could check, but is mentioned to make sure you are aware that there was a type of activity other than miners being the employees of the mine owners.

Albin seemed like an unusual name and I was just working with WWI draft registrations, so I checked there and found five Albin Johnsons in Montana. The potentially interesting thing is that three of them have Albin as a middle name, and if one of those is your Albin (and you were not aware of that detail) it could be hiding some records of him from you.

Okay! I have done several of my classmates genealogy, just for my own enjoyment. I began looking into George's, (your cousin?) after our 53rd reunion, set it aside and then researched a little more for our 55th..held in Alberton because Stevensville had nothing to accomodate us.
If we both have Ancestry, then we most likely have done the same research. I did ask George if Hebert was his mother's name, and he said yes it was. I believe the Taylor family that took in Georgia after her mother died is a relative, but have not had the time to delve into that more. You and George have an Ancestor with the middle name Taylor....
Things have piled up on me here and must set aside the hunt for a bit again...happy hunting!

I just recall 2 years ago telling me he had no idea who his mother's parents were, and since researching is my favorite pastime,I was on the hunt!!
He had a problem getting his virus protection on his computer re last tel call..so have not heard from him after he left from our reunion.
Thanks for replying..we can work together now..are you working on the Filchers as well? "findagrave.com" is free and several Filchers are buried in Boulder, Jeff Co, MT on that site...have not had then time to put them together.

Re: Home for feeble minded

Boulder MT is in Jeffersn County MT not Pondera County. Perhaps someone in Jeffeson County can help you with this.
AT one time Jefferson County had a web site. I believe it was a genealogy site. Perhaps it is up and running now. I have not been on it for a long time
In a book I have states that the State schools for the deaf, blind and feebleminded were established in 1892. Also the town of Boulder was established in the 1860's - but the name was Boulder Valley. The name was changed in 1897 to Boulder.

I hope you have found the above information useful. I also found a World War I Draft Registration card (6/5/17) for a Harry Brown, but his birthdate was listed as 6/6/1888, and this does not jibe with your info, nor the cemetery info, although errors like this often occur in records.
