When traveling on business in Winnipeg, I checked the phone book for "Sorflaten". There are not many Sorflatens around and all the ones I knew of, were related to me. This was around 1996 or so. So I found Einar! During the short visit to his home I saw he had a Hammond organ and I mentioned my dad Eugene played the organ for radio shows in St. Cloud, Minnesota. Einar mentioned he had driven through St. Cloud sometime around 1955 or so and had met my dad! What a story! Since then, I've been in contact with Lydia Sorflaten, who, I believe is related to Einar. We still have to figure out what the chain of DNA really is between us USer's and the Canadians. But, it must be there! - Posted by: John Walter Sorflaten (a distant Sorflaten relative from the US) on: Sep 24, 2015
