    1. Re: [Rock] Marriage Records Lookup - Skybergs
    2. Clara Skyberg was married to Martin Aaker. When I fiirst became aware of things they were living on 80 acres of land in the NW corner of section 3 in Martin Township Minnesota. My parents farm ajoined their farm on the east side. They later moved to Hills, MN. They had two children (boys). Marvin was the oldest son. I saw Marvin and his wife this last March durnig a visit to the Hills area. They presently live in the Tuff Memoial Home in Hills, Minnesota. I assume he is about 80 years old. I don't know if Marvin and his wife had any children. The second son (youngest) was Russell. Russell passed away about 10 years ago from heart condition as I recall. Russell was likely born about 1926 as I know he is about 7 years older than I. Russell and I attended District 19 country school together. He was in the 8th grade and I was in the first grade. He married Kathryn Thompson also of Martin Township. She was the daughter of Mr and Mrs Arthur Thompson. They had children but I don't know how many. She now lives in Sioux Falls, SD. Matilda Skyberg married Ole Bjerk Jr.. He was one of 23 children and I think he was the oldest son of Ole Bjerk. They moved onto the 80 acres after Martin and Clara moved to Hills, MN. Ole and Matilda had 4 children (all girls). LaVonne, Gladys, Olive and ?. LaVonne is the oldest and is married to Cornie VerHey and lives in Beaver Creek, MN. Gladys is a widow and lives in Brandon, SD. Olive is married and lives in Indiana (?). Olive is the youngest and was born in 1931 or 1932. My aunt Edna Bjerk Lien was a sister-in-law to Matilda. I have no knowledge of John Skyberg other than knowing he existed.
