OUR SCANDINAVIAN HERITAGE

is a collection of true stories by members of The Norden Clubs, Jamestown, NY, stories of themselves and/or their ancestors, their adventures, customs, and the sacrifices they made to come to America, a land where streets were paved in gold, as one young girl was told.

Included is a history of the emigration from Scandinavia to America and to Jamestown, NY, in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

The Norden Clubs are pleased to permanently record these memories as part of history, particularly the Scandinavian influence in America.
