Greetings List, I'm looking for information on Emma Hanson who married Frank Schad Jr. Frank grew up in Cottonwood and Jackson Counties, near Heron Lake, MN. The couple was married in Heron Lake, but later moved to Placer County, CA. I have lots of information on Frank, but am trying to find something out about Emma. She looks to have been born around 1891 +/- a year. Lived for a time in Alba Twp., Jackson Co., MN. The couple never had children. I also know from obituaries that Emma was the daughter of Hans & Anna (Folden) Hanson. After her husband Frank died in California, I can't find her whereabouts. Hope to hear from someone soon....

In 1880 she came to America and on Oct. 17 of the same year she married Hans P. Hanson, of Spring Lake. For four years following their marriage the young couple made their home with the groom’s parents. In 1885 they moved onto the Ole Gardner farm (now occupied by the Albert M. Nelson family) which Mr. Hanson had bought. After residing there for 20 years they moved to Spring Valley, which has since been their home.Eleven children were born to them -five sons and six daughters nine of whom are Living: Peter of Spring Valley, Marie (Mrs.Raymond Fischbach) of Manteca, Calif., Gena (Mrs. Neal McGuire) of Berkeley, Calif., Clara (Mrs. Lacon Case) of Ft. Bliss Texas, Emma (Mrs. Frank Schad) of Heron Lake, Minn., Herman, William, and Lillian, all of Minneapolis, and Oliver, of Aberdeen, S.D. A son and a daughter died in infancy. For ten years or more Mrs. Hanson has been in declining health; seven years ago she had a stroke and she has since been confined to her home. The last years she was only able to move about by the aid of a wheeled chair. Shortly after New Year s her condition took a decided turn for the worse and she was forced to take to her bed. After lying in a coma two days she died Saturday, Feb. 23. Funeral was held from the home and the Spring Lake church Feb. 27, Rev. Berven officiating. Special singing at. the church was furnished by the Spring Lake choir. The funeral was attended by a large number from Minneapolis, St. Paul, Heron lake, Minn., Aberdeen, S.

She is survived by 11 grandchildren and two great- grandchildren, also by an older brother, Haakon Folden, in Norway. A younger brother, Peter Fo1den of Spring Lake, died in 1933. Mrs. Hanson’s death has left an aching void in the hearts of her loved ones. Her life was adorned by many beautiful Christian virtues. In her death the Spring Lake congregation and the Ladies Aid have lost a most faithful and loyal member.

The 1900 Census for Spring Lake, Pierce County, Wisconsin Hans Hanson, head, born June 1858, 41, born in Norway, immigrated 1867, farmer Anna, April 1858, married 20 years, 10 children, 9 living.

Closest relative Emma Schad. He had blue eyes, brown hair 1920 census for Alba, Jackson Co, MN Frank, age 37, farmer, born in MN to both parents born in Austria Emma, age 27 1930 census for Weimer, Jackson Co, MN Frank, age 47, born in MN, to both parents born in Czech. farm labor married at age 33 (14 years, circa 1916) Emma, age 39, married at 33, Living at 9th Ave, 1st Addition. 1952 City Directory for Stockton, California has: "Schad Frank (Emma) h300 W. 8th" (next line) "--Emma lndry wkr SJCH r2913 Odell" When I've research city directories, the "h" means home. For Emma's line, the "r" usually meant "resides", but in this case, that address is different than Franks. Unless it was the address for her employment. Stockton is in San Joaquin County. I looked in the abbreviations for that issue and found "SJC" was the Stockton Junior College. There was no abbreviations for "SJCH". In 1967, that address was found to be the Mount Pleasant Baptist Church. At that time, Rev Ysidro Armenta was pastor. But, this does give a "possible" lead for you. California Death Index for Frank Joseph Schad, born 10 Oct 1881, died 30 Sep 1955 in Placer County. County recorder records for Placer and San Joaquin Counties, might hold documents recorded by them, property related, death/power-of-attorney related, etc. I checked marriage records for "Schad" from 1950's to 1970's, no Emma. He was about 74 when he died, she would have been about 65. If you have not: Get Frank Schad's obituary, get it. It may have the location where he was to be buried, Emma may be there. Post in the Placer County sites: http://www.rootsweb.com/~caplacer/index.htm I would start in the Placer and San Joaquin county's. Since she had sisters also living in California, I would "Guess" she probably stayed near her family since she didn't have children. Ron Bestrom
