Saturday Night Fun Roulette Number

It's Saturday Night again - time for some more Genealogy Fun!!

Here is your assignment if you choose to play along (cue the Mission Impossible music, please!):

1) What year was your paternal grandfather born? Divide this number by 100 and round the number off to a whole number. This is your "roulette number."

2) Use your pedigree charts or your family tree genealogy software program to find the person with that number in your ancestral name list (some people call it an "ahnentafel"). Who is that person?

3) Tell us three facts about that person in your ancestral name list with the "roulette number."


Grandpa Hansen was born 1870/100=18.7 or 19

#19 is Johanne Margrethe Jensdatter She was born about 1803 in Tullebolle on the island of Laangeland in Denmark. She married Jorgen Pedersen and they had 6 children, 4 sons and 2 daughters. Karen Jorgensen b. 8 June 1840 was my great grandmother.
