Hattie Anderson Fingarson - born North Dakota 1892 died 1957 Minnesota

Question

Here's another connection to the Global Reunion branch of the tree:

Hattie Anderson was born in 1892 in North Dakota, to Hans and Belle Anderson. Hans was born in Iowa, and was the county auditor of Grand Forks, North Dakota.

If you are looking for somewhere to jump in, and have experience researching North Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, and German immigrants to the American midwest, Hattie is a great profile to start at.

Vic,

This is an old post from back when the GFR tree was new and small! We were sharing any interesting lines we connected, and asked people to branch out from them in hopes of grabbing more existing profiles and getting them connected to AJ.

Answer 1

I'm curious to know how this connects to the Global Reunion tree

Comments

It is a distant connection, through marriages. Hattie is fourteen degrees removed from AJ.

The connection point is AJ Jacobs' great great grandmother, Sophie Friedenheit.

Sophie Friedenheit Kingsbacher -> her brother, Isaac Friedenheit -> his wife, Esther Goldsmith Friedenheit -> her sister, Dora Goldsmith Schiffer -> her daughter, Rosalind Schiffer Bloomingdale Cowen -> her husband, Arthur Cowen -> his son, George Cowen -> his wife, Nan Fingarson Cowen -> her father, George Fingarson -> his brother, Fred Fingarson -> and his wife, Hattie Anderson Fingarson

or the other way around ;) -

Hattie Anderson Fingarson -> her husband, Fred Fingarson -> his brother, George Fingarson -> his daughter, Nan Fingarson Cowen -> her husband, George Cowen -> his father, Arthur Cowen -> his wife, Rosalind Schiffer Bloomingdale Cowen -> her mother, Dora Goldsmith Schiffer -> her sister, Esther Goldsmith Friedenheit -> her husband, Isaac Friedenheit -> his sister, Sophie Friedenheit Kingsbacher (AJ's great great grandmother)
