Does anyone have access to the 1885 Minnesota state census that could do a lookup for me? I am looking for Gustaf and Ingrid BOLIN and their family in Franconia. Lynne Frizzell Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Hi Listers, I am new to the list and would like to hear from anyone researching the above names in Chisago County. Thank you, Janet

According to Earl Leafs last book on Swedes of Chisago County on page 89 Gustaf J and Ingrid K Bolin Gustaf was born 16 Mar 1835 and died 26 Oct 1927 wife Ingrid is born 14 Aug 1842 and died 27 Sept 1916 they are buried in Kahbakong cemetery in Taylors Falls they are in the 1895 census in Franconia and had been there 12 years 8 months also in the 1895 census is Mary 13 and Eddy 11, which means they arrived in Franconia probably in 1882, if that is also the year they immigrated according to the census you could have a look up on one of the swedes lists for the emigrantan CD and see if they are listed there. I am sure you will find them in the 1900, 1910, 1920 census and can get on interlibrary loan the 1885 and 1905 and 1915 census of Chisago County and look them up there. another idea would be to get on interlibrary loan the newspapers of the area and read them and see if they are mentioned in there anywhere, undoubtedly at least their obit would be there. 52 -0700 Subject: BOLIN, Franconia Message-ID: <MABBJGJGJBJNBDHJKENPOEOECJAA.lynnef@telusplanet.net> I am researching the family of Gustaf and Ingrid BOLIN who emigrated from Sweden and settled in Franconia in 1882.

Eldred is also the Eldridge family, so perhaps you should check with the Eldridge family name group. someone there might be able to help, ELDRIDGE-D-request@rootsweb.com or ELDRIDGE-L-request@rootsweb.com Have you checked the 1920 and 30 census. You have no dates for your great grandfather, which would help pinpoint his age and help in looking for the right man.. How old was he when he died during pearl harbor and was he a sailor or military or was he just an innocent bystander. Have you checked with the military records bureau in St Louis? If he is from Iowa why are you writing to a Chisago, Minnesota group? sue team On 20 Feb 2003 23:47:30 -0700 kalalani_95@yahoo.com writes: > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Surnames: Eldred > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/RGB.2ACE/75 > > Message Board Post: > > My name is Jennifer, I am the grandaughter of Katherine Hoke > Kuwasaki.

Dear List, I have made a copy for myself of the 1914 Chisago County plat map and am willing to do some lookups. The book also contains a directory of farmers for each township, which includes names of family members and length of residence in the county. Not all farmers are listed, but if you're lucky, it s a great find. If you want a lookup, I need to know which township you are looking in because there is no general index.

I am still working on the descendents but have quite a bit at this time that I will gladly share also. Two of Delia's siblings, John and Lizzie, took Ayers as their Anglicized name. I do not have Lizzie's Indian name but John's was Mis-se-el (Snowball). I am descended from Delia's sister O-sah-ga (Mary), my great-great grandmother. Frederic and Elizabeth Ayers are not in any way related but were the educators of Delia, Mary and I believe coupe more. There connection was primarily a religious one, save the soul, and apparently the family highly respected them. I took notice in the census records that Mary (O-sah-ga) could read and write while her Scotch/English husband could not. That was a rather unique twist. I have found no records to date listing the names of students of the Ayers. I can be contacted for info at friend@2z.net

Sterling township is going to be 150 years old in 2005, and we hope to be able to publish something by then. Polk County is celebrating 150 years this year. It has been very interesting!

No Olsin/Aslin in the Isanti county cemetery records but not all cemeteries are read. Also none in the cemetery records of Chisago county, but there are Oslunds and Aslunds would be a normal Americanization of the name.

Some of these bios are on the web somewhere, I saw them.
