Her brother also went to Hancock MI in 1882 and died in Calument in 1930. An Anne Gurine Ericksen married a Johannes Pedersen in Calumet Township, Houghton Co. on 24 Aug 1880. Her name, age, and birth place on Return of a Marriage match with my Anne Gurine Eriksen who emigrated from Norway in 1880. The MN Death Index lists an Anne Gurine Erickson death in Chippewa Co., MN as 24 Nov 1909. Am searching for more information on both to help prove or disprove either is my Anne Gurine Eriksen. Thank you for your help.
