Trying to Find Can Anyone Try to Help
I am trying to find information for another branch of my family however they live in the U.S.
I am looking for members of John Henry Heward and his wife Theresa[nee Nordquist ].
They had 6 children .
They were Jack,Elsie,Elmer,Helen and 2 others?
John was a miner and the family moved around a fair bit.
Some of the children were born in Idaho,Arizona and Nevada,they moved around alot due to Johns
occupation.
Apparently John remarried at some stage and had 3 more children Lawerence,Patricia and ?
Have a few tidbits but would love to hear anything no matter how small please and of any of the mentioned
above
