Biography
Joelle was featured in a Meet Our Members Post on the G2G Forum!
I was born in 1957 in Los Angeles. My parents were Raymond Picken Colville and Joelle (Mamie Jo) Crawford [1]
Education
I attended California Lutheran College (now University) in Thousand Oaks, California from 1975-1977. During the Spring of 1978 I was a work/study student at Semester at Sea, an educational program where students receive college credit traveling on a ship around the world, attending classes on board. We visited South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Sri Lanka, India, Greece, Egypt, Spain and Morocco.
I graduated with a Batchelor of Arts in Sociology from San Francisco State University in 1979.
After that, I graduated from Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary in 1985 with a Master of Divinity. In 1998 I received a Dr. of Ministry from the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago.
Career
Joelle is a pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
In 1985 I was assigned to the Southern Wisconsin District of the American Lutheran Church where I was interim pastor at Middle and Lower Coon Valley Lutheran Lutheran from 1985-1986.
|
| Ordination |
I was ordained a pastor in the American Lutheran Church (ALC) on July 6, 1986, at Grace Lutheran Church in San Francisco. [2]
From 1986-1989 I served at Hope Lutheran in Madison, Wisconsin, St. John and Trinity Lutheran in Birnamwood, Wisconsin from 1989-1998, St. John Lutheran in Cushing, Iowa from 1999-2005, Salem Lutheran in Roland, Iowa from 2005 to 2010 and Ridgeway Lutheran Parish in Ridgeway, Iowa from 2010-2013.
In 2013 I began working for the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America as Director for Evangelical Mission in the Northeastern Iowa Synod. I moved to Waterloo, Iowa and bought a house there.
Family
On July 4, 1987 I married Loren Hanson in Madison, Wisconsin. We had Isaac and Sarah. [3]
|
| Wedding of Joelle Colville and Loren Hanson |
Loren was killed in a car accident in Mason City, Iowa, on August 1, 1999. He is buried at Lower Coon Valley Lutheran in Stoddard, Wisconsin.
Travel
My experience with Semester at Sea instilled a love of travel. Besides many journeys across the United States, I have taken two trips to Israel (1984 and 2000). In 2004 I traveled independently with my two children around Italy for three weeks. [4]

| Joelle with her Compostela for completing Camino |
In May 2017 I walked the last 100 kilometers of the Camino in Spain from Sarria to Santiago, earning my Compostela.
In Jan 2019 I took a cruise to the Caribbean.
Cats
I have lots of cats. I’ve always taken in stray and feral cats. I have a way with taming them. My first space page was for Freddy, who in 2020 died just a few months shy of his 20th birthday.
Interests
Joelle (Colville) Colville-Hanson has Scottish Ancestors.
Descendant of Robert the Bruce.
I have Scottish roots on both sides. My Ancestry.com DNA says I’m 81% Scottish. The Colvilles came from Argyll to Illinois and Ohio in the 19th century. The Crawfords came much earlier to the Southern Colonies (17th and 18th centuries). I have ancestors who were pioneers, dirt-poor farmers, aristocrats, and plantation owners who held enslaved people. I have ancestors who fought on both sides of the Civil War. I find the stories of all of them fascinating. I will often expand the tree way beyond my blood relatives because I find their stories so interesting.
Joelle (Colville) Colville-Hanson is a member of the Colville Name Study Project.
I have a Colville Name Study. I am particularly interested in ancestors on my father's side who came from Kintyre, Scotland and founded a Scottish Settlement at Argyl.
Colville
Joelle (Colville) Colville-Hanson is a member of Clan Colville.
Descendant of Williiam Colville of Lesnessock and Tradigal (1662-1712).
James Colville, my second great grandfather was born in Campbeltown, Scotland and came to Ohio with his wife, Isabell Breckenridge in 1837. His son, my great-grandfather, Robert and wife Agnes Mckay (who came to the US on the Gleaner in 1842) moved to Winnebago County, Illinois in 1857 and became part of the Scotch Settlement at Argyle.
Crawfords
Joelle (Colville) Colville-Hanson is a member of Clan Crawford.
Descendant of William Crawford Arrived in South Carolina from Scotland, 1772.
My fourth great-grandfather, William Crawford arrived from Roxburghshire, Scotland to South Carolina in 1722. (Shades of Outlander!) My uncle Roy, a Methodist minister, did a lot of research on the Crawfords in the 50s and 60s on the Crawford family. Probaby much of what we know is thanks to his work.
My Projects
Illinois
I’m the Project Manager for the Illinois History. My focus is on Winnebago County. I started with the Scottish Settlement in Argyle, but got interested in Rockford and surrounding areas. I’m really looking forward to working with others who are doing research on Illinois families. There’s a lot of great history in Illinois!

Currently I’m working on adding and connecting men who died in WWI and are listed at the Campbeltown War Memorial https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Campbeltown_War_Memorial
Could I trouble you to create a category in the Reed ONS group for Axa Philena (Reed) Thompson (1790-1850)? She was born in New Hampshire, United States. She also has some family in Connecticut, so that would be helpful as well.
Thank you!

Yes I would like to continue with the project and continue to work on Argyll. I bought a couple of books on the history of the area when I was there last summer and am using them to update information
PS. We are 17th cousins through our common gr grandmother, Katherine Stuart #348, Lady Maxwell, (bef. 1374-to 1446). It’s always a pleasure to find another cousin ( I am 20th gr granddaughter of King Robert the Bruce). Lula

Since you are the Project Manager/Coordinator for the Illinois Project, would you add DuPage County [1] to the list of free space pages at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Illinois#Counties.? I've tried to link back to the Illinois Project where I can. If you have any other suggestions let me know. ~ Julie Bartimus Hays-3072

We've put together a survey for you to fill out to check in with you, it will only take a moment as there are only a few questions. Filling out the survey lets us know you are still interested in coordinating your study and provides an opportunity for you to share any suggestions you may have for the project.
If you have decided to step away from your study, please reply to this comment to that effect.
I understand that you are empowered to create categories for the Reed ONS. I have some Reids from Pennsylvania, could you kindly create a category for them? Martha (Reid) Maughlin (1745-1816) John Reid (1723-1778) Jean (Unknown) Reid (1716-1768) Thank you in advance, Paulien

Many thanks,

Also when I’m doing Scotland I work on Argyll veterans of WW I.

For those of you who joined the Project before the Voyage started in late 2018, we would like to invite you to consider a "fast track" Voyage, especially if you plan to join the Biography Team. If you’re interested, choose a profile that you have completed to the best of your ability and compare it to the Voyage Biography Standards. If you’re at Level 2 or better, include a link to the profile in your response to this check-in for a “fast track” review.
We would also like to invite you to join the email GoogleGroup and text chat Discord channel for our project. (When you request to join our GoogleGroup, please be sure to include your Wiki ID). You will find more information on the GoogleGroup.
We thank you for all you do to help the Profile Improvement Project and WikiTree. The Project’s mission is to:

It's time for our annual Scotland Project check-in!
This year we are hoping to learn what our membership would like to accomplish over the next 12 months. In case you aren't aware, this year is WikiTree's "Year of Connections" and the Project's leadership would like to contribute to this in as many ways as possible.
We would appreciate it if you would share your thoughts and ideas with us on how we can accomplish this goal. We would also appreciate it if you would provide some feedback on our existing goals, including:
We continue to communicate with our Project members via Google Group (official) and Discord (unofficial), as well as G2G. You may also reach out to any of the Project leaders via WikiTree's internal messaging system at any time.
Thank you for all you do to help the Scotland Project become a knowledge hub for Scottish genealogical research! We wish you all the best in 2022!
Sincerely, Amy Gilpin on behalf of the Scotland Project Leaders
I think the Tartan Trail is a great idea. I’m not personally interested as I have plenty to work on my own tree.
Thanks for all your work.

We are real distant 12th cousins once or twice removed from George Ramsey of Dalhousie and Elizabeth Hepburn
I am your seventh cousin twice removed through the Knowltons. I also have family in the Birnamwood/Wittenberg area so have a connection to those places you have been. Thanks for the great interview.
Greetings!
It’s time for a Project check-in!
Scotland Project Leaders check in with you at least once a year to see how you are doing. With the changes happening around the world, we understand that life is hectic right now.
What are you planning to work on for the Scotland Project this year? Are you happy with the team(s) you part of, or would you like to make some changes?
This time round, we’re also looking for feedback on the use of Google Group and Discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way to ensure you receive Project communications? If you would like to join us on Google Group or Discord, let us know in your response.
PS Congrats on the Member of the Week!
As I posted on your Member of the Week Interview thread today, I was shocked and pleased to discover that you and I are 5th cousins once removed. You are a 5th cousin to my mother. We are both descended from John Breckenridge and Janet Pickan from Argyll, Scotland. We both also show up on the DNA record for John and Janet as well.
My branch of the Breckenridge family emigrated to New Zealand, and I have also emigrated from NZ to Canada.

We realise the time has come to dissolve the UK Project in favour of the individual country projects of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.
We are checking in with all UK badge holders to find out which country project(s) you would like to be in so you can collaborate with other members, have the opportunity to select which team(s) you would like to join, and so we can ensure you have all the correct badges.
Please respond by PM to let us know which country project(s) you would like to be in. Please dont assume we know. We are effectively starting from scratch to make sure no one falls through the cracks.
Once you have done this, the Coordinator for Membership in the relevant country project(s) will be in touch to help get you situated.
Many thanks,
Susie
Very well done on your making 1,000 or more contributions to WikiTree in June 2019! We commend and appreciate all of your time and effort in helping to grow and perfect our Shared Tree. Keep up the great work!
