Seeking information on Rev. Johan Anthon Pedersen Blilie - minister of the Norwegian church of Flandreau for many years - daughter Katharina very involved with church also. Johan had an older sister Marthe Marie Blilie who married Martin Steen - lived in Lake Mills, Iowa and died August 11, 1894. Her son Joseph Steen lived with Johan and family after her death. Martha's other children - Theman b 1872, Mina b 1873. Sophia b 1875, Clara b 1877. Casper b 1879 (my grandfather) Joseph b 1882, Orlando b 1884, Marie b 1886, and Carl b 1887. Johan also had younger brother Jakob Pedersen Blilie who farmed in Fillmore Co, MN. Jakob married Minnie Scholl, had two sons, Philip b 1913 and Donald b 1914. Martha, Johan and Jakob's parents Peder Jakobsen and Maria Andersdatter were living with Jakob in Fillmore Co according to the 1880 census. I am interested in their death dates. Also anything on Peder Jakobsen - big brick wall with him. Please and thank you. Vickie from Wisconsin
