I am researching my family tree on my father's mother's side.

My father was Frederick Louis Brune, and he was born in San Francisco, California, on August 6, 1944. He died on January 28, 1997.

My grandmother was Mary (Mink) Brune, and she was born in Conrad, Montana on September 14, 1915. She died in November 1991 in Lynden, Washington. One brother, John William Mink, lived all his life in Montana. He also was born in Conrad, on November 10, 1919, and died there on December 31, 1996. I have no further information on him.

Their mother was Jennie Kooistra, but I have no further information on her.

Their father was Louis Mink, and I've hit a dead-end on him as well.

I have found information on my family through Family Tree Maker (and Ancestry.com), that is inaccurate. If you have information, please let me know your source. My own sources are first-person, birth and death records, baby books, and marriage records. I will be happy to share copies.

Any information on this family would be greatly appreciated. Please answer by posting here, or you may email me directly.

Thank you!
