Ingalls on the Prairie – The Gene and Fern Ingalls Story

This site is dedicated to the Ingalls descendants. I am a member of the family that was the subject of the Little House on the Prairie books and TV Series. One comment I have heard over the years more than any other is “I wondered what happened to that family”. I am answering that question while continuing the legacy Laura Ingalls Wilder began by reintroducing America to  another generation of the Ingalls family. A few years ago I decided to write a book about my life. If you are fortunate to live long enough and look back, you will find you lived through remarkable times in America’s history. As I began to write my book I first discussed my Grandparents, and Parents and quickly realized, my parents lived through some amazing events in our nations history. I decided their story should be the first one told. My Dad had passed by this time, but I still had my Mother to help with details I was a little fuzzy on. This began the book in earnest, and timing could not have been better.  My Mother and I worked for over 18 months on my book, and I finally had it published. Another milestone of this process was my book became available on what would have been Mom and Dad’s 70^th wedding anniversary. It filled my heart to know their story has been told, and everyone that asks the question “What ever happened to the Ingalls family?” would now know.
