Thanks for this great site. What a lot of work. I've worked for 30 years off and on, on my own family history. My great uncle, Herman Belah, lived in Ruby from about 1898 to about 1950. His story is interesting, and long, but he was a doctor in that area from 1911 until he left in about 1950.
Another possibly relative was Peter Ogle in Sunrise, in the 1900 census.
I currently live in Sunshine and have lived in interior and southcentral Alaska since 1976. I was born in San Francisco in 1946.
I found this site while researching for the history of the Sunshine area for a website I'm writing.
One thing I learned that surprised me, was the number of children in orphanages. It is so sad to think of these children growing up without their extended families.
Thanks for your work.

Hi! I am working on the geneology of the Rickteroff family in the Old Iliamna area and have information to 1778. My husband's grandmother was Agafiia Savva Rickteorff Anderson, married to Pete Anderson. Most of the information we have about them is from John Branson of the NPS in Lake Clark (maybe you've seen some of his books) and from Violet Willson in Naknek (who had gathered much information from information in Kodiak). Feel free to visit and look around the Rickteroff site @ myheritage.com ...its pretty facinating. The problem is that we don't know where Agafiia fits in so we can't make the connection to the ancestors.

I found it interesting looking at all the last names and comparing them to present day spellings. The first spelling of our last name was Munin and I see you have it as Moony. My grandmother raised me after the passing of my mother and her last name was Malchoff. Thank you for the interesting information, if you have any questions feel free to contact me, thanks again

My grandparents settled in the Matanuska valley. My grandfather was Charles Huntley. My grandfather's brother Walter Huntley and his wife Beatrice were part of the original colony settlers. He was also a state representative in Juneau for a few years. Walter is also buried in the pioneer cemetary. My parents were James and Vera(Huntley) Peffers they both died when we were young. I lived a few years with my sister out by Loberg lake,(she was married to Sonny), my brother and I used to pick strawberries from the experimental farms patch. Some of my brothers and a sister were foster kids on the Sandvik farm out by the Butte at the same time. I lived in Alaska until I was 18 and have lived in the lowere 48 since then. I live in Oregon now. I was in my 30's before I knew anything about my family's history with Alaska. It has been fun learning more over the years. Thanks for all of your hard work. Nancy

I have been searching for the last name of Angue. That was my husband's grandmothers maiden name, She was orphaned in the 1919 flu epedemic. She and her brother were brought to Dillingham. Nick her brother is in the 1926 orphanage list I found in a book by Tim Troll.
I have a list of deaths from Dillingham that was provided to a relative of mine. If anyone has requests let me know and I would be happy to look up names.
I found Mikael Rickterov in one of your lists, although it is hard to know which one is or had a child with Alexandria from the Nushagak area.
You did a great job with this site. There are a lot of mispelled last names on the nushagak area that I can see. I know a lot of the names of the people in Dillingham although not all.

Hi Coleen, your site was sent to me by a couple of people and I'm glad to report that it has offered me a lot of info on my people as I am in the process of doing a bio of my family. Rare info that is hard to find at Ancestry or other places. Since I was adopted I had ONLY one name to work on........and I found interesting info in your listings. Your work is JUST FANTASTIC!! The name Brizgaloff is extremely HARD to track down let along tie them into other families who married into or out of the family. My birth mother's name was Olga Jean Brizgaloff but I cannot find her in ANY census or listing, anywhere. The only reason I know she even existed is I have pictures of her, talked to cousins who knew her and of course I am here to send you these plaudits!! Please keep up the good work, your attention to detail is greatly appreciated. Aloha, Valerie

Thank you for a great website. I am researching my ancestry, and actually came across your website by searching for information on my grandmothers family. You and my grandmother's sister share the same last name, and last I knew she lives in Palmer, AK. Please email me, and we can find out if we have any shared ancestors.
Again, great site, I will be back! Thank you.
