Request for pictures
Dear Peterson Family Members:
This year marks Harvey's 80th birthday, and we are looking for any and all pictures we can find of Harvey from any time period in his life - particularly his birth through young adult period. We would like to get any pictures of him that are available - if he is in a picture with other family members, friends, etc, we would like a copy of that, too. If you could look through photographs you have or can remember and either let me know you have them or e-mail them to me, I would appreciate it. We would like to get this by the end of July, if possible.
Thank you!
Lana Visser (Harvey's oldest)

Family Update
Hi family-
Wanted to let you know that our youngest, Jimmy, got home from his mission to Fresno, CA on April 21. He had gotten a 6 week extension. We picked him up at 6:20 p.m. (Plane was late), rushed him to the Stake President to be released, listened to his report to the high council, had a Reed’s Dairy ice cream, talked to him while he unpacked and packed and then said so long the next morning at 7 a.m. when he got in the car with his brother-in-law, Mike, and headed for BYUI. He had already missed the 1st two days of school. He did come home that weekend to give his report and since he is close he have seen him a couple of times since, but I still miss him. He loved his mission, the people, his comps, the mission President, and even the crazy people on the streets. He had lots of success and taught many new elders how to be successful also.
Our daughter and hubby, JaNan and Mike Brown are expecting another baby in Dec. They nurse is pretty sure there is only one baby this time.

FAMILY HISTORY UPDATE
February 2, 2010
We need to properly identify the father of Joseph Jeffs who is the adoptive father of George Henry Jeffs who is the father of Florence Mary Jeffs.
PROBLEM: Is Joseph’s father the Thomas Jeffs christened on 8 May 1785 at Eaton Bray, Hertford, England or the Thomas Jeffs christened on 21 Jan 1798 at Hemel-Hempstead. Or are they the same person?
WHAT HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED:
1. There was a Thomas Jeffs christened on 21 Jan 1798 at Hemel-Hempstead. British microfilm # 091762, Parish registers for Hemel-Hempstead, Heartford, England lists the following, “Christened 21 Jan 1798, Thomas son of Thomas and Hannah Jeffs, born 18 Sep 1797”
2. He had a brother named Samanuel (or Samuel). Film #091762 also lists the following, “Christened 18 Apr 1802, Samanuel son of Thomas and Hannah Jeffs, born 14 Mar 1802”
3. The 1798 Thomas Jeffs’ father is “Thomas Jeffs” and his mother is “Hannah”
4. The 1851 England Census, Registration district of Hemel Hempstead, Lists a Joseph Jeffs age 25 son of Hannah age 62. (Household Members listed were Hannah Jeffs age 62, Joseph Jeffs age 25 and Elizabeth Jeffs age 21.) So Joseph would have been born about 1825 and his mother, Hannah, about 1789. No father listed.
WHAT NEXT?
1. Search Parish records for a Thomas Jeffs christened on or about 8 May 1785
2. Search Parish records to verify the Marriage date and place for Thomas Jeffs and Hannah [Bates].
3. Search Parish christening records for possible children of Thomas and Hannah.
4. Search Parish records to verify Hannah Bates christening date of 31 Jan 1798 in either Ivanhoe, Buckingham, England or Hemel-Hempstead, Hertford, England.
I plan to order some microfilm into the Twin Falls Family History Library this week and hope to make a trip to the Salt Lake Family History Library in March. If anyone would like to help on this or other research projects please let me know.

Request for Pictures
I am looking for a picture of John Henry and Florence Mary together. I have a copy of their wedding picture, and a couple of them with grandchildren, but I would like to find another picture with just the two of them for a project I am working on. Dad says it probably doesn't exist, but I thought I would ask the family and see if anyone had one. We have very few pictures of grandma and grandpa, and I would appreciate getting any. If you have any pictures please email johnhenrypeterson@gmail.com.
