    3. Dear Annette, Leslie and other Listers! Thank you very much for your latest comments on the Arthur Hill problem! I am happy to hear you found the divorce of Helen and Samuel (it should be Louis!) Hinkelman in 1912, but there is no need to send it when it doesn't give any further details. I suppose you didn't find the one of Arthur and Helen Jean Hill, or did you? It is interesting to learn that Helen Hinkleman is buried at Colma, CA, but what a huge cemetery with almost 180.000 burials! I will try a phone call when daylight reaches California, but I have also sent an inquiry for help to the NorCal list hoping to find someone who can help me further... Thanks again for your great assistance in this matter! Very sincerely yours, Lars E.

    3. Back in the day, this was a very big country. If you and your wife had a major argument, you could leave her and go elsewhere, tell people your name was something else and marry again without any fuss made. It happened in my family and if he hadn't contacted his family to tell them where he was, his first wife wouldn't ever have found out that she needed to divorce him. As it was, she was married three times. Once to him, once to the second husband, who died, and another time to the third husband. Now, you couldn't get away with that.

    2. Lars E. Oyane via
    3. Dear Doris and other Listers, Thank you very much, Doris, for your latest comment on "my" Arthur Hill problem! I guess finding the actual divorce record for Arthur and his 1st wife Helen Jean nee Cowie is NOT the big item in this matter. Much more important to me would it be to find out what happened to her AFTER she divorced Arthur? I have received a copy of Helen Jean's stepfather Louis Hinkelman's death certificate from Seattle, WA from June 15, 1935, hoping that might be of help to trace Helen Jean, but was disappointed. As I already said before, Louis married a 2nd time in 1917 to this Nona Harrington of Prince Albert, SK, and he was himself a resident of Great Falls, MT at the time! He sure got around, didn't he? He divorced Nona as well, and he was cremated. So, I guess, if we cannot find Helen Jean nee Cowie, born 1898, we must try to figure out what became of her mother: Ella Alice who in 1920 was "widowed" and living as someone's companion in Los Angeles, CA under the name of Helen Hinkleman, born in Michigan about 1881?

    1. Re: [NOR] Ole (1847) and Anna (1852) Canutson of La Salle Co., IA 1880 - what became of them? - newspaper items?
    2. Lars E. Oyane via
    3. Dear Annette, Mark and other Listers! Thank you very much for your latest comments on the Canuteson - Irgens family and for clearing me up as far as Fredrikka Irgens and her death is concerned. Fredrikka's grandmother Sophie Irgens died in Bergen, Norway Mar. 21, 1881 and was survived by a son Christian Irgens who was a sailor and last known in 1882 to have been "stationed" at Galveston, TX, and then one grandson in Norway and the one granddaughter in Illinois! Apart from that, the names listed in these papers are interesting. I think I have identified the Williamson family as descending from Rasmus Williamson and his wife Guro "Julia" Knutsdotter who emigrated from Markhus in Os in Hordaland some time in the late 1850's. They had children William (1849), Christi(ne) (1851), Knut (1853) and Barbara (1855) all born in Os. But why these Williamsons should be guardians for the little Irgens girl, is another enigma! They were definitely not related to Frederick Irgens, and Anna Brewick's father appears to be Haldor "Henry" Brewick, born in Hjelmeland in Rogaland in 1822 and emigrated in 1846. According to "find-a-grave" Henry is buried in the Oak Mound cemetery at Somonauk, DeKalb Co., IL - dying Apr. 12, 1897! Remaining questions are still: * Who are recorded as Fredrikka Irgens' heirs when she died in 1896? * What became of Ole Canutson, Anna's 2nd husband? * I guess another estate that might be of interest, would be Henry Brewick's estate from DeKalb Co., IL 1897? Thanks again for your wonderful assistance in this matter! Very sincerely yours, Lars E.
