I found a Bob Lundeen who graduated in 1939, but that would have been too late for your father, I guess. > Norma Lundeen - 1936 > Dorothy Lundeen - 1938 I found both Norma and Dorothy. They were both in Girls' Science Club as I was; and, Dorothy was in my class. I see that she lives in Woodstock, IL. I didn't know her well, but do remember both of them. I don't recall that Dorothy has ever come to one of our class reunions, but it is possible. We had the 25th as our first; then the 40th, and have had an annual mini-reunions each year since - with a large one on each 5th year. We had a Frederick (Rick) Lundeen and John Lundeen in the class of '38. Both are deceased. I also remember Jane Lundeen. I believe she was the sister of Rick - not sure - also Fern Miller was related to this family of Lundeens. Apparently they are not yours. > There are other Lundeen families in Galesburg, but none of them are > related. My g-gfather changed his name from Nelson to Lundeen in the > 1880s and he only had one son, who fathered the four above. I guess that would account for the fact that you are not related to the other Lundeens in Galesburg. Lots of Nelsons in Galesburg, so possibly you are related to some of them. Were you raised in Galesburg? Always nice to find someone from "home" even tho' it has not been my home since 1941. My last home there was 859 E. Main St., corner of Main and Lincoln (old route 34 to Chicago). The house is gone now, and the area has become very commercial, but was a nice residential area when I lived there. And, where do you live now? I am in Burlington, Iowa. Most of my ancestors were from Fulton County (London Mills and Fairview), IL, but the MILLS, POTTS, and COMBS were from Chestnut Township, Knox County. Glad to "meet" you. M.
