Grandma Jean's Maternal Grandparents








Grandma Jean's maternal grandparents were Carl and Amalia Berg.  They immigrated to Castle Dale, Emery County, Utah from Denmark and are now buried in the Castle Dale cemetery.  Amalia's father and mother, Henning and Christena Ungerman, are also buried there.  If you need me to decipher any of the headstones for you, let me know.  I found a few dates and places were different from what were on my records.

Grandma Jean's Paternal Grandparents




Grandma Jean's father's parents were John and Anna Zwahlen.  They immigrated to Ferron, Emery County, Utah from Switzerland.  After living out their lives in Ferron they were buried there.  You want to know the worst idea ever?  Tie a bunch of fake flowers to someone's gravestone.  Bad idea.  You'll notice in some of these pictures my shoe at the bottom.  That's because I was using my foot to pull the flowers away so I could get a picture of the dates.  Luckily I did get them.
