| | | Additional Family Information | | Great-Grandfather, Carl Owen Negethon, Sr., came from Denmark in 1894 and settled in the Omaha, Nebraska - Council Bluffs, Iowa area. I have been told that an ancestor, perhaps my Great-Great Grandfather designed a railroad bridge just outside of Copenhagen, as the family name, Negethon (or Negithon - ?) is on the bridge. Some people in Denmark say that the name has East European, or German roots. And, the -thon may be an indication of ties to Martin Luther's followers (sim.: Malancthon...sp ?) Does anyone have any leads for me? |
