Do you know Fred G. Gies?

Question:
Do you know Fred G. Gies?

Answer:
We do not know Fred, but we did find a little information about him that seems to pan out based on the photos we have. Fred appears to have been born March 1910 in Nebraska to parents of Russian and German origin. He and his family eventually ended up moving from Lincoln, Nebraska to Keystone, Nebraska. The link to Keystone is clear in one of the photos below.

We also found another reference to Fred on the Keith County, Nebraska GenWeb site, where it appears the coordinator, Susan Anderson, is related. We attempted to contact Mrs. Anderson but were unsuccessful.
