-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mrs. Jaderborg was born in Boston, Massachusetts of English background. When she married Swedish American Einar Jaderborg of Lindsborg, she left her eastern American roots, with the exceptions of her summers in Maine, for the Great Plains of Kansas where she became completely emerged in Swedish American Kansas. The result were her research writing projects and the many authored publications as noted above, most of which were first published in the Lindsborg News-Record -- more than 350 articles -- between December 12, 1962 - August 22, 1969!*
Maybe, her most favorite endeavor was, perhaps, founding the Lindsborg Swedish Dancers in 1965 who would dance their way around the country at other Swedish American communities with a "dancing" trip to Sweden every four years. She was a most apt Smoky Valley Historical Association Secretary. Her Kansas Smoky Valley research was extensive enough to have it donated to the Kansas Historical Society.
She was my friend!
