It was created by me and my mom, and 20 years of family oral tradition + some centennial archives.

Lincoln Ne Ppl started remembering me.
“Jilg” doesn’t roll off strangers’ tongues well, so I invented a Christian mnemonic acronym to help others remember it. Austria, Vienna 🇦🇹
JiLG = Jesus_is_Lord_God
My great grandpa Dan was even half from the Austrian philosopher Nietzsche bloodline
which explains my 👨🎓 Greek Corpus 🎓 Opus Athens 🐖 Porcus Philosoppy Passion BTW.
US immigration record spelling:
The typical European spelling drops some spelling bee points.
Colour = Color
Foetus = Fetus
Nietzsche = Nitsche
Forrerodningen = It’s Anderson now!
My TexMex roots have names like Mamie. My Irish roots have male names like Shannan.
My grandpa Frank Jilg was from an all female siblings family, but he had 3 boys including my dad Mark. My grandpa Jerry Bredahl had all girls too.
I think I would’ve had all girls if I was a parent.
Since I’m being removed from the gene-pool (childless), this is on my mind a lot. My children are midlife coping dolls.
- My first statue, her name is Lil’ May because she is from Earl Mays (garden store).
- My middle child will be an Ashton Drake doll, which belongs to my Aunt Madonna, who btw also has no biological children. I will name him Ashton.
- My own Ashton Drake doll is a baby rub-a-dub who I named Caesar.
- I plan to pair him with a twin sister girl baby statue who I will name Hauvü. French HautVü (silent t) is a “flying feeling” which was my childhood passion. I wanted to be a pilot.
I’m a proud uncle though: I have 5 nephews between my 2 brothers. Calvin, Levi, Oliver, Adam, and Evan.
Like every stereotypical white American, I must eagerly include my tribe, which was a French Canadian fur-trapper, married to an Iowa (sleepy people) Dakota Sioux (wind people) my great great grandma on my mom’s side. I have a Native American Uncle Rex and Uncle Podie in California to best of my knowledge.
White Dakota Sioux look more Native American to my eyes; You can see it in our bone structure. If you want to make it about skin tone, you just might look more Mediterranean than Christopher Columbus. Go back far enough, and there are no such thing as Europeans or Native Americans, Etc. All human people are actually Africans who migrated from Africa, “The Motherland”. According to Genealogical Math, Archeological Estimates, Bureaucratic Birth Certificate Records, and Ancestry, 117 Billion (ish) humans have walked the earth, and perhaps God knows the exact number.
The 5 generation family beef ranch split 1-man corporations, and is now M Ranch as owned by my 2 brothers and my 5 nephews.
The legacy Jilg Ranch homestead is happily owned by my cousins, and my retired uncle.
The wetlands are still owned by the government, same as always.
