Descendants of Catherine Sorensen—

Following is a nested listing of all of the known descendants of Catherine Sophie Sorensen and her husband Andrew Andersen. They were the parents of only one child: Lydia Ann Alvira Andersen. As you may know, Catherine Sorensen Andersen gave birth to her daughter, Lydia Ann, in the back of a wagon while traversing Echo Canyon, on the way to Great Salt Lake City. This untimely birth left Catherine partly paralized for the remainder of her life.

If you belong in this listing, and or have additions and corrections, please contact the SFHO via the link at the bottom of the page. You may choose to be listed here or just in the SFHO private database of the organization or not at all — if that is your wish. It is the goal of this web presence to find and share family information with as many of Nicolai's descendants as we are able. Participation in any form is strictly up to you.
