Kathy, Going back to a citation where Anna, 81, in 1920 was living with her daughter, 58 in Glyndon, Clay Cty, MN in searched for a death for her after that. I found one I believe is our Anna, and I attempted to email it to you. It cites she died, married, age 89, 12.27.1927, in Glyndon, MN, and what confirms to me it has to be here is her parents are cited: Bottolf Larson Christine Hanson (Kristi Hansdatter Svardal was her mother's name in Norway) I don't think that there is an error in this. Then, wondering because it says Anna was married, I checked MNHS and found an Ole Severson: 11.28.1928 Clay County, MN #001755 Since I do not have hardly a thing on Ole, I can't be positive this is him, and it doesn't cite birth details at the MNHS.org cite What do you think - could this be Ole, dying at about 100? I do think I found Anna, largely because of her parents' cited on the site. Linda
I do agree that is probably the Ole and Anna that we’ve been looking for. I’ll add that to the list for the next time I can go back to the MN History Center. I’ve been looking around in FamilySearch.org <http://familysearch.org/> for different resources. There are some interesting sets of images for Clay county, MN that have not been indexed yet. They need to be browsed image by image. MN, Clay county land and property records, 1872-1947: https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1762576 <https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1762576> 31,590 images MN, Clay county, School Census Records, 1909-1962: https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1760963 <https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1760963> 14,457 images If Ole and Anna had a farm or property in Clay county, you might want to start at their death years and see if you can find how the property was disposed of after they passed away.
