Text[edit]

Dear Judy [Henning]: Yours is the only name that will appear in the Harper Genealogy. But I will send you a brief sketch of our own immediate family as shown in the Norwegian bible that we know. Our family consists of:

• Father - Peter M. Olsen born in Norway 1854. [sic]
• Mother - Anna Marie Olsen born in Norway 1877. [sic]
• Jennie Marie Olsen born in Chicago
• Osborne Theomun Olsen born in Chicago
• Perry Maranius Olsen born in Chicago
• Harriet Theodora Olsen born in Chicago
• Jennie, your grandmother, had one child, a boy, and two beautiful granddaughter.
• Osborne, had two children, a boy, and a girl, also six grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren.
• Perry
• Harriet

... seem to have become an Air Force family. Osborne's grandson, Paul is a west Point graduate, and by this time is probably a major or Lt. colonel. Jennie's grandson, your brother Peter, is a captain in the Air Force. Our son, Dr. Perry, was a 1st Lt. in World War II. He flew a B-17 ... and completed 57 combat missions. Uncle Perry and Aunt Dorothy
Hello! I will be glad when Perry gets his new denture. Only [for them] to come out, so it shouldn't be bad at all - Dorothy
