Dear Larry,
I think we may have found a link. My ancestor is also Bernard (actually Barnhart L.) Dirksen who settled in Bellevue, Iowa in the 1860s. From information I have collected, your grandfather is the eldest of his 15 children while my grandfather, Albert, is the youngest. I would be most interested in trading information with you. I have been to Bellevue to collect maps of the farm, some baptismal and marriage records, obituaries, probate papers, etc. I will be most happy to share what I have. Please feel free to email me directly at [email protected] or phone me at work in St. Paul MN at 651/736-1680. I look forward tohearing from you.
Theresa Dirksen
P.S. I have a copy of your grandfather's obituary from the Bellevue Leader which states he owned and operated a hardware store in Woden.
