RE: FAMILY HISTORY OF MITHUEN'S AND MATHISON'S
debturnerHi everyone, My sister and I are doing a family history on the MITHUEN'S and the MATHISON'S. We are looking for any information on both of the families listed. Our grandmother is Alice Joesphine DeLander (Mathison)...........maternal side and our grandfather was Edwin Mithuen............paternal side. Our mother is Sharon Ruth DeLander married names: (Mithuen.......Wynveen), our father's name is Calvin Eugene Mithuen. Our mother was born and raised and lives in the town of Woodville, was also known as Brookville, WI and our father was born in Madison, lived in Wilson and then Spring Valley, and nows lives in Washington state. Our grandparents were Vernon and Alice DeLander and Edwin and P.(Pearl) Viola Mithuen all are dead now. The DeLander's are buried in Sunset Cementary in Woodville and the Mithuen's are buried in the Wilson Luthern Cementary in Wilson, WI. If there are any living relatives out there please let us know. We are trying to find out if there are any living or dead brothers or sisters for Edwin Mithuen, born in 1900 and died in 1970 and originally came from Norway, we believe. We know his parents were Iver or Ivar and Carrie (Knutson) Mithuen, we believe that they also came over from Norway and had all their children over here in America. We also know that on P. Viola (Jacobson) Mithuen, born on July 3, 1907 and died on December 22, 1988. We know her parents were Jacob C. Jacobson and Annie (Iverson) Jacobson. On the DeLander side we know that Alice Joesphine (Mathison) DeLander was born on March 29, 1904 in Brookville and died on July 18, 1971 in Woodville. Her parents were Ole and Aagot Mathison. Vernon DeLander died in October 1980 in Woodville. His parents were Gustav and Olga DeLander, and either in Norway or Sweden, instead of DeLander was Carlson or Karlson. If you know anything it would be greatly appreciated.
BriningHi Debra The Mithuen name probably comes from the Mithun farm in Evje, Aust Agder Norway. I found Iver and Carrie on the 1910 census with 11 children [:0] so you should have some relations out there. They are in Minnesota, Freeborn, Oakland township. Ivar age 45 married 21 years born Norway emigrated looks like 1890 or 188? farmer Carrie 41 born Minnesota I can email you the census or you can join the Godrey Memorial Library for $35.00 and have access to the census [url="http://www.godfrey.org/"]Click Here[/url] Iver is listed as Iver Methuen Carla
