Subject: [ILROOTS] BERQUIST OR BERGQUIST FAMILY Chicago area
Date: Sat, 30 Sep 2000 16:07:43 EDT


Is there anyone else out there who is researching the BERQUIST or BERGQUIST
name in the Chicago area ? I have very little information on them and I
would love to find out more about them or find some cousins. All I know is
the entry I found on the 1910 census for Chicago
Lousian age 55 born Sweden
Eda age 50 born Sweden
Estella age 19 born Illinois
Joseph age 17 born Illinois
George age 29 born Illinois
The only reason I found them is they were sharing a two family house with
their daughter ( my great grandmother) and her family so they were on the
same census page. My great grandmother was Ellen ( or Elizabeth Ellen ) age
27 born in Illinois, married to Frances Edward Van Buren. The two families
lived in a two family house at 2053 Kendall Street in Chicago. Any help or
information on this family would be most appreciated. New cousins would be an
added bonus =) Thanks Jaime
