yep if you going to do things like that you should put some dates on tombstones They got married in Cananda and for the next 40 plus years attended mass every sunday and Grandpa never went to communion. After he died grandma converted from luthern and we were actually confirmed together. Made it very special to me.
Wow! That is a very wonderful story!

Y'all remind me in the morning and I'll take a pic of the cookbook page. If not here then at mom's. My grandma "published" a family cookbook in the late 90s. It's full of family history and pictures. I was about 15 and she had me illustrate some pages. It's very precious to me. It's also full of weird things like "lard cake" that just sound awful.

Quote: To date, the set of twins who both resided in Nebraska the longest were Dr. Marie Hansen Morse and Hannah Hansen, who reached age 102. Their parents were Frans and Maren Jensen Hansen. Born January 11, 1878 in the country of Denmark, they immigrated to the United States at the age of three months, settling in the town of Craig, Burt County, Nebraska. Marie graduated from the Creighton University Medical School in 1902, and Hannah graduated from its Pharmacy School in 1907. Marie married Dr. Russell Morse, both had a medical practice in Wisner, Cuming County, and raised five children. After her husband's death in 1924, Marie was a physician in Fremont. Hannah owned and operated a pharmacy in Uehling, Dodge County until 1940, then lived in Fremont. Marie Morse died February 21, 1980 at the age of 102 years, 1 month, and 10 days. Hannah Hansen died November 18, 1980 at the age of 102 years, 10 months, and 7 days. An article appeared in the January 28, 1977 Omaha World
