Welcome to our Home on the Web. This site is devoted to my children, Kristján, Brendan, and Kara, Erin & the Icelandic Settlers in Canada, specifically on Hecla Island in Manitoba. May the spirit of adventure of our ancestors and the memories of Hecla Island live on forever.
I have some links to my favorite sites, the Tómasson Family Tree, and some history of the settlement of Hecla Island in Manitoba. I plan to add a photographic tour of Hecla in the months to come so please send or email photos that I can use. I have a family photo album, (two separate sites) with some rather dated photos, but promise to update those soon. Please e-mail me with information and/or photos that can assist me in the future development of this site. I appreciate your comments,...I'm just learning this HTML stuff!
I apologize to those of you looking for updates on my site, as they have been few and far between lately. I am currently working on an extended history of the settlement of New Iceland, and hope to do more research on this area this coming summer. I have recently added a site about Mt. Hekla in Iceland, so be sure to check it out!I will be adding much more to come this fall so check back often. Thanks for visiting!

Please be sure to rank my site by clicking the link on the banner on each of my pages. Please email me if you have any additional information I may use in my site. Please pass my site on to your friends. I enjoy your comments in my guestbook.
I have added an extensive ancestors page! Most of the information is in Icelandic, so any help in translating it is appreciated. It's quite a large file and may take a minute to load...but it's worth it! Let me know if we are related!
Sit back and enjoy!
Please be patient...some of my photos take a minute to load! I am working on this to help make my site load quicker. Thanks...
