From Betty Jane Schneider Lamb (54):

Dear Gary: Thanks to Neola Kofoid Garbe for sending the picture of my parents, Sophie and Peter Schneider. I am married to Bill Lamb, retired State Farm Insurance Agent, and we live in Grand Forks. Larry owns Bismarck Gold and Silver Exchange at 212 North 4th Street in Bismarck. Both Doris and Stanley passed away from cancer in 2003. Rochelle Pigeon Schneider lives in Sioux Falls.

Thank you Gary for forwarding all the E-mails and we look forward to them. We appreciate all the work that you are doing. Betty Jane Schneider Lamb

Back row Janet ’68, Clayton, 72, Thurman
Seated Lynda ’69, Rodney ’73, Myron ’76 and Marie
Janet (George) LeNoue lives in Lexington, Kentucky. Lynda (Curt) Jordan lives in Yarington, Nevada. All three sons live in Bottineau.

The older kids attended Willow Lake School and then Dunseith Public, but they redistricted and since their home was in Bottineau County, Homen township they all ended up graduating from Bottineau. I think Rodney and the girls would like to get on the email lists. The girls are coming in July.

As you know we are double cousins and have every single relative the same so we are very close to them.

Gary,
If someone from this family (Mike Poitra) lives in Bottineau, and I get an address, I’ll deliver it to them. It’s a nice fairly large picture.

Do any of you know the Mike Poitra Family?

From Debbie Poitra Rondeau (77):

Good Morning, Gary

The picture of the Jim Parsien family, is from Belcourt. That Jim Parsien is still around Belcourt. He works at the Tribal office in Belcourt.
From Mel Kuhn(70):

Howdy Gary,

The Jim Parisien in Neola’s picture is still alive and living at the east reservation line as far as I know. Eddie King Johnson is still playing fiddle and has taught countless young children how to do so also. He had a band for years and now one of his son’s has a band. That’s about all I know or should say just in case I might be lying. Which I would never knowingly do unless I’m alone or with somebody.

The Jim Parisien Family – 1977

From Alan and Phyllis Campbell:

Just as a point of information – some of your many “readers” might be interested to learn that the wide brim black hat worn by Violet Campbell in that Parade picture with the “Campbell Insurance Agency” car (and with Bernice Johnson and Bob Leonard) is the hat Violet wore at our wedding in Jamestown on July 30, 1947!! Almost 61 years ago!! I have saved the hat all these years and have now passed it on to Cathy Campbell Springan in Stanley . It’s been used in a few style shows etc over the years and is quite a keepsake!
Do enjoy all the emails you receive and forward on to all of us!! Thank You!
