    2. Harald Lorentzen
    3. Hello from Norway Could anyone help me finding were a relative is buried. I am sitting in Norway trying to find more information about Carl Ludwick Coupon. He was born July 26, 1873 in Fayette County - Iowa by parents Johan Koppang and Kjersti Koppang. Here is the information I have: He was the first of the children from Johan and Kjersti that was born in Iowa; he also was in Colorado. Like the rest of the family he now has the surname Coupon. In the year 1900 he is, just like his brother a "gold miner" and he lives in a goldmining town with the name Goldfield. In 1910 Karl Ludvig lived in Colorado Springs, in El Paso County, Colorado. He is married and has two children, Virginia born 1905 and Ruth Elizabeth born 1908. In 1918 he works for Portland G.M Co. in Victor. This was the largest mine in Cripple Creek and was called "Queen of Cripple Creek". His family left him His wife Anna Bella took the two young girls, Ruth and Virginia, and left for California where she had family. This was between 1910 and 1918. In 1920 Carl Ludvig Coupon lived in a "Boardinghouse" in Eureka township in San Juan County. Here he worked at "Sunnyside Mine". We have information that Karl Ludvig Coupon died 51 years old, on June 3, 1924 in El Paso, Colorado. Best regards Harald in Norway
