Knute O & Ida Distad in West Concord, Dodge, MN. He was born about 1872 in MN. Dodge is a couple of counties NE of Faribault. Oscar O & Ella Distad in Hayfield, Dodge, MN. He was born about 1885 in MN. Thor O & Betsy Distad in Ellington, Dodge, MN. He was born about 1858 in WI. Andrew T & Kari Distad in Hayfield, Dodge, MN. He was born about 1872 in MN. His mother, Susie Distad, is living with him. Ole O & Louisa Distad in Hayfield, Dodge, MN. He was born about 1855 in Norway. Peter & Gertrude Distad in Hayfield, Dodge, MN. He was born about 1858 in Norway. John O & Julia Distad in Westfield, Dodge, MN. He was born about 1870 in MN. Harry & Caroline Distad in Bath, Freeborn, MN. He was born about 1876 in Norway.

Generally, people have flagged these items of interest as a courtesy when they are of *genealogical* interest on many of the other Rootsweb lists. This is quite different from general advertising for a business. Your tagline advertising AOL is probably in greater violation of your view of the "rules." -JHintz [email protected] wrote: > Rootsweb does NOT allow advertising on the message boards or lists. > Thank you > Bob Sanders > MNFARIBA list administrator > > > > ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message > > >

I have to squint at the picture, but it looks like the name on the papers could be Albert Bereck? Just saw this go up on ebay: Item number: 150137347905 Faribault County 1906 MN Mortgage Deed Wells MN vintage I really didn't know what to do with these, but a person came in and wanted me to try selling them so I'm following directions. This is a lot of two old legal documents which I guess relate to mortgages. One relates to satisfaction of mortgage and has dates 1903, 1904, 1906 all listed on here somewhere, George King was notary public. The second item is a Mortgage Deed, has stamp of H. Nelson, Well, Minn. on here, 1891, 1892. You may find some light spots or slight crease but a neat lot of two paper items for someone. Thanks for looking.

SAM 248 roll 116. It lists a John Conrad Ewald death as June 10, 1887 in Emerald Township at 86 years 6 months and 1 day old. That would make birth December 9, 1800. It lists him as a widower. Birth was in Germany, and for mother and father, it only lists Ewald. I didn't find a Blue Earth newspaper for that date, for an obit.

August was born 3 August 1833 in Prussia, and died 29 September 1914 in Faribault County; Fredericke was born 20 May 1842 in Prussia and died 30 August 1911 in Faribault County. Both are buried in Bass Lake Cemetery in Winnebago. August and Fredericke had two children, Clara (my great-great grandmother) and Abraham. Clara (1862-1944) married Julius Nimz (1862-1953) and had four children with him (Ernest, Hulda, Martha, and Lydia); she also had one daughter (Mary Raddue) whose father is unknown. I am descended from Ernest's son Everett. Does anyone have any information about August and Fredericke's parents, immigration, or Fredericke's maiden name? Mainly I am interested in the maiden name and immigration, but parents would be very good as well. Thank you. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Sorry! That probate index is for next door, to the east, Freeborn County. I guess I'm starting to go cross eyed here.

Took me a year to find Clyde and where he was buried. Point of interest he was buried in the alley, but eventually moved. Lots of interesting triva.

I see Clyde buried in the St. Rose of Lima Church cemetery: http://www.rootsweb.com/~mnmurray/strose.htm DONALDSON CLYDE 1898/NOV/25 I would contact both the St. Rose of Lima Church offices and the Prairie Hill Cemetery sexton at Fulda, MN to see if there is some death or burial record for John. I'd also inquire at the county courthouse for death records from 1885-1900. I agree with you on this one - he's not showing up in MN on the 1895 state census. So he either died by then or he moved somewhere else. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
