Hey everybody, take a look at this confirmation record for Anne Margete Olsd. Last entry: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=5775&idx_id=5775&uid=ny&idx_side=-255

She's a possible, can we prove it?

Added: Here is her birth record, farm name is Yven, not a good match:#18

Jedi,

Per the 1920 census, it is noted that Magrethe and Edward were Naturalized in 1905. Have you tried to get a record of her Naturalization record? They can hold some valuable information.

FYI: Searching the 1895 Minnesota census, I run across a Thobias Hanson and family. Prabably a younger brother to Edward. Hartvig was also staying there.

Edward, Maggie, Alma, and Olga are in the 1895 census living at Marsh Grove. Edward has lived in Minnesota 6 years and resided at Marsh Grove 3 years.

I'll see if I can find a Naturalization record. I don't know where to start looking. You have found a lot of information on Edward anyway.

I've been trying to find the marriages. Olsen may be her maiden name and Lund someone she first married or the other way around.

Try this place for Naturalization records in the county of Marshall.

Marshall County Clerk
208 E. Colbin Ave.
Warren, MN 56762
Telephone: (218) 745-4816

Naturalization Records: Each record usually contains a petition for citizenship with the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), a petition with the local court clerk, and a Certificate of Naturalization. The National Archives has many of these records. For information about the National Archives, see the topic The National Archives and regional centers. You can also get naturalization records from the INS. Write to your local INS office and ask for a copy of the form G-641, Application for Verification of Information from Immigration and Naturalization Service Records. Records of early naturalizations will be in the records of the courts where the naturalization took place.

The census records indicate Edward was the only one married twice.

Les

PS: My logic indicates Edward and Magrethe were married at Marshall County in 1892 upto the birth of Ollga in 1893. Look for their marriage records there. We need her maiden name.

I was thinking Magrethe had to have a relative in Marshall, and found a Ole E Lund Sund. The census has his last name as "Sund".
1900 United States Federal Census
Name: Ole E Sund
Home in 1900: Marsh Grove, Marshall, Minnesota
Age: 45
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1855
Birthplace: Norway
Relationship to head-of-house: Head
Race: White
Immigration Year: 1889
Household Members: Name Age
Ole E Sund 45

Is this person in your family tree? He immigrated in 1889, two years before Margrethe.

Les

PS: There is a Ole E Sund, who emigrated 15 March 1889, residence Sigdal.

I see him in other census years also as Sund. I don't recall any Lunds or Sunds.

New information from a relative: Margrethe was born Lofdter in 1867. That sounds like an odd name to me but she said it was hard to read.

It is probably Larsdtr. Ask her if the 'f' is backwards.

I'm thinking more like Olavsdter or Olsdatter. She also said she used the last name Olsen.

I'm sorry Jedi, there is just too much guess work trying to find Magrethe's family. In order to improve the odds, we need her last name from her marriage record or her Naturalization papers. There even should be an obituary from a local paper.

Thank you both for all your help. You supplied a lot that I wasn't even looking for yet on Edward. You spent much more time on this than I ever would have expected. I'll keep looking for more information on Margrethe. Again....I really appreciate your help.

Hello.....I'm back with a little bit more information but not much. Edward had two other children in Norway, Hannah and Clara with his first wife Dorthea. I don't know there births or why they didn't come over to America with him and two of his children. I would be interested in their birthdates if anyone could find them. I also heard the after coming to America Edward sent for Margrethe, in Norway, to come over to America. Thanks for reading.

Jedi,

Here is an online database and place to order naturalization records of Minnesota:

http://www.ironrangeresearchcenter.org/aboutus/

Do click on database search.

Actual records cost is a bit spendy and depending on the era of the naturalization record, you get a little or a lot, later dates are generally better on useful info.

You will also want to look at: www.pvillage.org. They have an online database search for obituaries published in many Pennington County, Minnesota area papers.
