Slekten von Krogh i Norge og delvis i Danmark har så mye til felles at det ville være helt feil og bare ta for seg deler av slekten. Derfor vil denne siden i fremtiden ta for seg slekten i sin helhet og ikke bare Christopher von Krogh sine etterkommere slik det først var tenkt.

Obituary for Ingrid Johanna Potts
| Media Title | Obituary for Ingrid Johanna Potts |
| Media Notes | Ingrid began her life January 22, 1944 in Palo Alto, California, the only daughter of Norwegian parents Ruth and Paul Todsen. She attended Stanford Elementary and Wilbur Junior High before graduating from Palo Alto High School in 1961. Ingrid then received an Associate's Degree in business from Foothill College and began working for the USGS in Menlo Park. In 1964, Ingrid married her Junior High School sweetheart, John Potts, and they moved less than a mile away from her childhood home to begin what would be a 52-year marriage. A year later the couple bought their first home in Mountain View and embarked on long cross country flying adventures with John as pilot. Children came next, with daughter Lani Ruth born in 1969 followed by son Keith Paul in 1971. The whole family relocated 300 miles north to Shingletown, CA in 1979 where Ingrid enjoyed having wide open space and fresh air to take long walks and work in the garden. She also took to the skies again, flying with John across the country and to Alaska in a classic Cessna 170. She began working temporarily as a Special Education Teacher's Aide at Black Butte Elementary School and ended up staying for 21 years until her retirement in 2003. Ingrid always collected penguin figures, and in 2000 finally got the chance to see them in the wild on the beaches of New Zealand. That same year she participated in a family reunion in Norway and became reacquainted with the people and places of her history. Ingrid and John sold their house in 2004, bought a motor home and began traveling the country as full-time RV'ers, continuing their lifelong love of travel and camping. In 2005, Ingrid suffered a disabling stroke and she moved with John to a small house in Redding to be near medical care. John took care of Ingrid for 10 years before she moved to a nursing facility in 2015. She died peacefully at 8:50am on Monday, May 22, 2017. Ingrid is survived by her loving husband John Potts, her daughter Lani Potts of San Jose and her son Keith Potts, daughter-in-law Tuli Potts and granddaughters Jessa and Mia Potts of Mount Shasta, CA.
