Reunions in 1986

Evanstad: June 11, 1986

Minneapolis, Minnesota: Glen Brooks and I (and perhaps others not recorded) went to the Hubert H. Humphrey Airport to meet 21 cousins arriving from Norway. We had a large banner, "Velkomm Evanstad Relatives" and a small gathering at a nice restaurant by the river..

Evanstad: June 13 and 14, 1986

Fargo, North Dakota, Doublewood Inn. Group photographs were made, each group according to the Evanstad ancestor at the time of the immigration to USA (and the Norwegians, in group 1, are descended from the Evanstad that stayed in Norway).
