Robert & Eunice Bullis of Gervais, OR

Updated February 8, 2009

About Our Family Research


We have been researching the paternal AND maternal sides of BOTH of our families.

Robert's Paternal side includes the following family surnames: Bullis, Peters, Hall & Hutton; with the areas of research including NY, PA, MN, and SD. The Bullis branch was completed by a cousin in SD, in the 1990's. The Peters/Hall/Hutton line was completed & published in June 2002 by Eunice. As of Feb 2009, I am working on combining & updating these 2 histories.

Robert's Maternal side includes the sunames of: Svartaas-Svartos-Swartos, Bjerkelien-Lie-Lee; as well as Belgum, Rudlang, & Saeter of Oppland Co, Norway; Tveito of Aal parish, Buskerud, Norway; and Johannesson of Smaaland Sweden. The areas of research for these include Norway, Sweden, WI, MN, SD, WY, MT, WA, OR & Alberta Canada. This was completed & published in Feb 2008.

Eunice's Paternal side of the family includes these surnames: Olsen-Olson, Graff (shortened from Graffsronningen), Stone, Sather, Larson, Holmdahl, Hansen, & Flatner; and includes the research areas of Norway, VT, NY, WI, MN, MT, WA, ID, & OR. This was completed to-date (from memory!) by an aunt in OR in the late 80's. Eunice researched & got additional info, and published this project in July 2006.

Eunice's Maternal family surnames include: Hammer, Rector, TerBush/TerBosch, T Bush, Bishop, Gray,& Tracey. The areas of research for these include TN, VA, NY, PA, OH, IN, & MI. This was published in Oct 2005.

There is still some on-going research: the Hammer surname has not been completed, as my grandfather, John Hammer was an orphan, born Jan 1894 in or near Bristol, TN/VA. He assumed the surname of Rector. We traveled to Bristol, TN/VA in Jun 2007, and found info about the Hammer family in Bristol; but have not documented his CONNECTION to this family, yet.

Anyone who thinks they may have info for any of these branches is encouraged to contact us.
