Hello, I am hoping to find some information on my great grandmother Lucy Johnson, her death cert lists Minnesota as place of birth on 11 Jun 1867, parents listed are William Johnson (Ind) and Susa Harble (Ohio) (SUSA is what is listed on Lucy's Death Cert.) Lucy died in Pikeville, KY on 23 Nov 1923 while visiting grand daughter and family. As per the Death Cert. Lucy died of shock following tooth extraction. Family says it was Novocain Poisoning. Lucy Johnson married Oliver Hoskins in Hocking County OH in 1885, and they had three children Alta May Hoskins, Clarence Hoskins, and William Hoskins. I would appreciate any and all information. Thanks. Sincerely, Beth Lewis Just one twig of many branches I Am Forever Searching For My Past! BOWMAN, BROOKS, HAYDEN, HOSKINS, JOHNSON, LEWIS, MCCARTY, RUPE and STOTTS

------- Forwarded message follows ------- Date sent: Wed, 05 Jun 2002 09:27:04 -0500 From: varrow2 <[email protected]> Subject: nyckelharpa concert psa Isanti County Historical Society PO 525 Cambridge, MN. 55008 Psa—Swedish nyckelharpa trio concert >From Valorie Arrowsmith 763-689-4229 4 June, 2002 for release week of June 10 KEYED FIDDLE CONCERT FEATURES SWEDISH TRIO AT BRAHAM LUTHERAN Bjärv, a nycklharpa trio from Sweden will include East Central Minnesota in their American concert tour in June. They are scheduled to perform on Tuesday, June 25 at 7 p.m. at the Braham Evangelical Lutheran Church on Country Road 4 in northwest Braham. This is one hour north of the Twin Cities just off Highway 65. The nyckelharpa is a tradtional folk instrument in the form of a keyed fiddle. This trio will perform both traditional music and more modern compositions. Mikael Grafström is 26 years old and is one of the leading folk guitarists in Sweden. ”Playing nyckelharpa is just another way of pouring out my heart,” says Mikael. Olof Göthlin is from Lake Vänern and became a skilled violin player by the age of six. He likes to play the fast polskas of Värmland and the powerful melodies from Orsa, in Dalarna. Olof currently attends the Eric Sahlström Institute. Ben Lagerberg-Teitelbaum is a 19 year old musician from Evergreen, Colorado. He was awarded the Eric Sahlström scholarship to attend the Sahlström Institute in Tobo, Sweden in 2001. He plays in the Värmland style. Coffee and refreshments will follow the concert. Donations are cheerfully accepted. This event is sponsored by the Isanti County Historical Society in Cambridge and the Dala Heritage Society of Mora, and made possible in part through a grant from the East Central Regional Arts Council with an appropriation from the MN. Legislature. For more information call 763-689-4229.

I am in hopes to find a verification of her being buried in Evergreen Hill Cemetery. Also, I would love to have a copy of her obit. In August's obit, it mentioned that in later life he was well known in the town of Staples for his basket and artificial flower making. Is there a historian for the city of Staples or a history of the town that might give me some information about my August? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
