Hello! My name is Anna Kramar-Scott, and I am excited about
putting my family history information on a website!! I have
always been interested in hearing stories about the early days of
my immigrant ancestors, especially since both of my grandfathers
had passed away before I was even born. I became more interested
in this history a few years ago, when my oldest daughter had to
research her family for a school project. Although I knew some of
the basic information, it took several phone calls to other
family members to collect enough data for her homework. Then we
bought a computer, and the rest, as they say, is history. I was
on my way to first learning HOW to research my ancestors, then
the best ways to find information on them.
From my oldest brother's baby book, I found the names of my
grandparents and great-grandparents. Also noted was their
birthplace, which was an added bonus for when I was looking into
my father's family! Sitting down with my parents and reviewing
information and family photographs have given me innumerable
names to investigate. I have been lucky in that both sets of my
Slovenian grandparents immigrated to St. Louis County, Minnesota,
as well as many of their siblings and cousins.
Although I have a long way to go
before I can say I have found all of those ancestors of mine, I
invite you to browse through my pages and maybe even find a
connection to some of them! Like everyone doing this research, I
have many miscellaneous folks that either I haven't connected to
my family lines yet or have ruled out as not part of my large
clan. Check through the miscellaneous pages to see if any of them
are yours.
My surnames of interest at this
time are: KORENCHEN*, KOZLEVCAR, KRAMAR,
MESTNICK/MESNIK*, OVEN, POZNIK, SIVC, STEBLAJ/STEBLAY/STEIBLY,
TRONTELJ, VOVK.
*meaning have not proven
connection to main lines yet!
