Oyane Sent: Saturday, May 6, 2017 10:55 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NOR] Robert Urness - born Norway 1878 - moved 1927 to Saskatoon, SK - what became of him? Dear Greg and other Listers! A very belated thank you to Greg for your reply to this inquiry of mine from January. I have had this message pending in my inbox not knowing what to do next, so I decided today I would send it again. This Roland aka Robert A. Urness just has to be somewhere, and I have run up against a «brick wall» trying to find him. If he did return to ND, as Greg suggests, he cannot have stayed there, since no Robert Urness appears to be recorded in the ND death index. If anyone has any ideas at all as to what may have become of Roland/Robert, I would be very happy to learn about it! Obviously his date and place of death would be «top priority» to me… PS: This Roland/Robert had a 1st cousin also named Roland aka Robert A. Urness (1875-1958) who lived in Durand, WI, but he is NOT the one I am looking for here... Thanks again for your great assistance in this matter! Very sincerely yours, Lars E.
