I have been working on a new genealogy site, which can be accessed through Ancestry.com.
It is a private site at this time, but if you are interested in viewing the information and pictures,
please send me an email and I will add your email address to my list of guests. You will then get an invitation
to view the site from Ancestry.com.

In this site I am also working on a smaller version of the Bernhoft Family Genealogy. It is only 100 pages in size.
When completed it will be available to purchase in a hard-bound copy from Ancestry Press. This version will only be the Edward and Sophia Bernhoft Family Descendants, due to the 100 page limit.

I have put it in the Ancestry.com site so the information will be available to interested family members. It is not a public
site and will remain so while I am updating the information.

Please, if interested, send me an email requesting access to this information. I don't think you will be disappointed by the amount of data and pictures. It will also give you a chance to see if your information needs any corrections.

Enjoy !!!!  I'm doing this for you and for me too. I have enjoyed every minute of all my searches and found treasures. I have also met a lot of family members as a result of my adventure.

Thanks go out to Orn Johnson from Iceland for catching an error in the date of the 1000th anniversary of the Althingi. I had listed it as 1934, but it is 1930. It is appreciated.

Bernice E. 'Bunny' Bernhoft passed away Sunday morning in Cavalier, North Dakota

Presbyterian Church in Cavalier.

I received the information I had been waiting for from Neustadt in Holstein, Germany. It has
some very interesting information on Joachim Michael Bernhoft and the 7 children he had with
Maria Dorothea Stampen, and 11 children with Margaretha Christina Sabelfeldt

This is one of the pages that was sent. There are seven baptism certificates also. I do have
to write again to see if they have the information on Joachimīs parents and siblings. They
have only shown the information on the children of Joachim.

   
This is a picture of Neustadt in Holstein, Germany, where all of the children of Joachim were born.

I just received sad news of the passing of Otto Bernhoft, on November 28, 2007,
in Fargo, North Dakota.

November 08, 2007

I am saddened by the news I received from Iceland on the passing of Orn Guido Bernhoft,  
son of Guido Bernhoft, and sister of Kristin Bernhoft. He passed away on October 22, 2007.

I recently contacted the Church in Neustadt in Holstein, Germany about information on
Joachim Michael Bernhoft.  I received a letter back saying they have found 8 documents
for me. I am looking forward to them arriving and will post on the web-site as soon as they arrive.
