Betty,
My fathers name was King he said we had come from nobility in England very early in the forming of the USA. His mothers name was Phillips also from England originally. My mothers parents were Getz-Austria? and Hedman from Sweden and Lapland. Can you tell me anything about these names? I am just now at age 71 trying to trace my ancestory. My husbands name was Seglem-from Norway and Johnson from Sweden.  Thank you and L'Shana Tova!  Rosalyn
