Thanks for all you do! jef

Thank you Suzie too for the great food!

I found this photo posted on the internet in a tree.

I found this photo posted on the internet in a tree.  Censuses and this tree say that Andrew H. Foss immigrated in 1893.  The one H.A. Foss I found immigrated about 1877, when Andrew would have been about 3 years old.

Are you sure about Andrew's father?  If this is the right H.A. Foss, they would have immigrated to the same area about 16 years apart.
