About
Over 400 years of genealogy
I have done genealogy as a hobby on and off for over 40 years. First interviewing my grandmother, parents, aunts, uncles and collecting pictures and documents. I wanted to know not just names and birthdays but also their story situated in historical context.
My Sturm/Thorson family tree is located at www.ancestry.com. This family tree has over 4,500 individuals; ancestors and their descendants spanning over 400 years. If you would like to view this tree, contact me and I will respond with a private link to this tree.
In addition to the descendants of Albert & Lorraine Sturm, I hope my cousins – descendants of my grandparents, my 2nd cousins – descendants of my great-grandparents, my 3rd cousins – descendants of my great-great-grandparents and so forth will find our shared ancestors. Since each generation geometrically increases thousands of cousins will share these same connections.
Out of privacy considerations I have taken care not to include living relatives in the genealogy reports on this website. Please contact me if you would like a personalized genealogy report including your living relatives.
I look forward to your stay.
Albert J. Sturm Jr.
