THE ANASON FAMILY IN ROGALAND COUNTY, NORWAY AND JUNEAU COUNTY, WISCONSIN BY LAWRENCE W. ONSAGER THE LEMONWEIR VALLEY PRESS Berrien Springs, Michigan and Mauston, Wisconsin 2013 ANASON FAMILY INTRODUCTION The Anason family has its roots in Rogaland County, in western Norway. Western Norway is the area which had the greatest emigration to the United States. The County of Rogaland, formerly named Stavanger, lies at Norway’s southwestern tip, with the North Sea washing its fjords, beaches and islands. The name Rogaland means “the land of the Ryger,” an old Germanic tribe. The Ryger tribe is believed to have settled there 2,000 years ago. The meaning of the tribal name is uncertain. Rogaland was called Rygiafylke in the Viking age. The earliest known members of the Anason family came from a region of Rogaland that has since become part of Vest-Agder County.

  • 1 Repression, Rivalry and Racketeering in the Creation Of
    Repression, Rivalry and Racketeering in the Creation of Franco’s Spain: the curious case of Emilio Griffiths ‘These things happened. That’s the thing to keep one’s eye on. They happened even though Lord Halifax said they happened […] and they did not happen any less because the Daily Telegraph has suddenly found out about them when it is five years too late’.1 (George Orwell) In mid-November 1936, a Gibraltarian named Abraham Bensusan wrote two letters to the British Secretary of State for the Colonies in London. His subject was the Spanish Civil War, which had, by then, already been raging for three months. Bensusan described how deeply the war in Spain had affected ‘The Rock’. In both letters he hinted darkly at the ‘fascist’ elements in Gibraltar and potentially suspect loyalties amongst the civilian population.2 But his principal aim was to highlight the appalling atrocities being committed by the military rebels in the surrounding region of Spain, the Campo de Gibraltar. Bensusan alleged that civilians, including Gibraltarians, were under threat of arrest or execution in the Campo, often for the most trivial offences, such as carrying a pair of shoes in a ‘communist’ newspaper. In the first letter, having urged that ‘England should formulate a formal protest to the authorities of La Linea… and specially protect Gibraltarians’, Bensusan singled out one man as responsible for the repression in the neighbouring Spanish towns: ‘I am told that a man called Griffith born in Gibraltar is Chief of Falange Española (Fascists) at La Linea, this young man apparently seems to be the murderer over at La Linea […]’ Bensusan returned to his theme in a second letter, four days later.

Prymak Amid the splendours of the Vatican Museum in Rome, amongst the lush and abundant canvases of Raphael and other great artists, hangs an exceptionally large painting depicting the defeat of the last great invasion of Europe by the Turks: the relief of the 1683 siege of Vienna by a coalition of Christian forces led by the king of Poland, John III, also known as Jan Sobieski.1 Sobieski was the last king of Poland to attempt to restore his country’s power and glory before the steady decline and final disappearance of that state in the late eighteenth century, and he is written into the early modern history of Europe as the man who symbolized the repulse of that power- ful Ottoman attempt to conquer Europe, or, as it was seen then, the last Muslim invasion of Christendom. Though afterwards, historians would dispute who truly deserved credit for this impressive Christian victory over the armies of Islam, with several historians, Austrian and others, giving primary credit to one or another of the Austrian commanders, there is no doubt that Sobieski stood at the head of the multinational relief force, 1 Jan Matejko, Jan Sobieski, King of Poland, Defeats the Turks at the Gates of Vienna, oil on linen (485x894 cm), Sobieski Room, Vatican Palaces.

Here’s how Vienna turned a series of major economic and geopolitical challenges to its advantage. Introduction In the mid-1980s, when Vienna presented its first urban development plan, the city government expected the population to decline and foresaw serious challenges for its urban economy. However, geopolitical transformations prompted a fresh wave of immigration to Vienna, so the city needed to adapt fast and develop new initiatives. A new spirit of urban development emerged. Vienna’s remarkable migration-driven growth took place in three phases: • first, the population grew rapidly between 1989 and 1993 • then it grew again between 2000 and 2006 • and finally from 2010 until today the population has been growing steadily and swiftly, by on average around 22,000 people per year • This means an addition of nearly 350,000 inhabitants since 1989.
