Velkommen

This is the first post written for the Myhren Family website. This website was inspired by family members who attended our 2007 Family Camp. Our desire is to share pictures and information about Myhren family events. We encourage you, Myhren family members, to add posts to this website by contacting D. Jay and Jerilee at henderson01@embarqmail.com with your pictures and stories.

We, D. Jay and Jerilee, will do our best to accurately publish your information on this website so we may all enjoy family-related stories. Please send Myhren family information only so we can keep this site as a "family bulletin board". Let us know what's going on so we can keep the Myhren family circle unbroken.

Also, if you see areas for improvement, find mistakes (Uff Da) or have other ideas of interest please let us know.

Hoping to hear from you. D. Jay and Jerilee

FAMILY HISTORY FROM JOE

Joe Borgen in North Dakota sent us an email describing some family history. He wrote:

Lom church in North Dakota , the first land for the property was donated by my grand father Lars Borgen, and at a later date my father and mother donated some more land for the cemetery.

Tom Myhren and Clara (Borgen) Myhren were my aunt & uncle, Clara was my father's sister. Clara's father was Lars Leo Borgen, my father was Leo Lars Borgen, Clara's mother was Sigrid Vole . They immigrated here around 1870 to1880.

The Myhren, Borgen's, & Mundhjield's came from the Lom Norway town. The aerie north and west of there is Boverdalin where the farms are. My wife and I are going to Norway the 28th of April, and I hope to find more info about the Borgen's and Vole's and possibly some about the Myhren families. If you have any info that may help me in my search for info about the families, please contact me.

Thanks, Joe Borgen
