I hope you are well. I have had a few updates in the past year that would like to share with you. I recently saw my cousin, Angie Anders, on your website and realized that I needed to update my information! :) My husband and I have moved to the outskirts of Monroe, Louisiana in a community called Swartz - a much calmer, country-like setting which we enjoy. We also have changed our e-mail address to: snix@jam.rr.com. I have enjoyed the recent additions to the website. I am also including our most recent snapshot. Thank you for the time you have taken to allow us to take a walk into the past, as well as allow us all find each other.

Warmest wishes,
Mandy Nix

Hi! This is so exciting. I didn't know how many "Draglands" there were over here. My grandfather is Marvin Dragland who married Marie - I believe her maiden name was Bible. They met during WWII and settled in a small town called Shongaloo in Louisiana. My father is Thomas M. Dragland who is one of seven children. Lynnie H. Dragland is my mother. I have only one sibling - a sister, Abigail Dragland - who just graduated from high school and will be beginning Louisiana Tech University in the fall. My Uncle Michael Dragland, my father, and I work at the electric company for the four state area of Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, and Mississippi called Entergy. I am also attending college attempting to enter the medical field. My father is soon to be transferred to Little Rock, Arkansas. Uncle Michael is currently in New Orleans, Louisiana, and I am in West Monroe, Louisiana. About a year ago, my Aunt Mary contacted another branch of the family in Norway, which was also amazing.

My maiden name was Amanda D. Dragland. I am in West Monroe, Louisiana. My husband is Steven E. Nix, so now I am Amanda D. Nix. We have a son named Benjamin Zion. My aunt is Mary Dragland - she is the one who let my father and I know about your site. Please add me to your list of Draglands and let me know if there is anything else we can do down here.

Please keep in touch.
