According to Gil's birth certificate his mother's maiden name was Anderson. Do you know who her husbands were or her sisters names. In my research I know that Vi and Bill Skarfelt who lived in Milwaukee were born in Wisconsin. Gil was born in Canton, South Dakota. I met Tony and Vi Rohrer on a number of occasions and attended Tony's funeral. Do you know where Christine died and approximately when. Any information you may have may help crack the mystery of Christine/Tina. Please contact me a my personal e mail so that we can share information.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Bryce Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/gFC.2ACI/1324 Message Board Post: History of Dunn County page 887 Albert O. Bryce, who has a good record as a Dunn County Farmer, though now retired from active work, was born at Portage, WI Feb 18;, 1858, son of Thomas and Eunetia (Bissel) Bryce. Both parents were born in New York State and came west in the early 50's, at first locating at Portage, and later moving to Eau Claire. In the latter place, however, he and his family made but a short stay, as he soon bought a tract of land in the town of Rock Creek, Dunn County, which in time he developed into a fine farm. On his place he also built and for over 30 years operated a shingle mill. He and his wife made their home on that farm for the reminder of their lives. They had five children; Angus F., deceased; Albert O., subject of this sketch; Archiblad D., now of St. Paul; Bert T. of California and Carrie J., now Mrs Elmer Stanton, who lives in Seattle, Wash. Albert O. Bryce as a boy attended district school in the town of Rock Creek and subsequently resided with his parents until 24 year! s old. In his father's mill he learned the art of shingle making, becoming a good workman. It was in 1883 that he began farming on his own account, buying 90 acres of land just west of his father's place. On this land he erected a complete set of buildings and for many years carried on a dairy business, for 20 years furnishing the Palace of Sweets in Eau Claire with sweet cream, for which he received top prices. In 1918 he retired for active farm life to enjoy the rest and ease earned through years of hard toil. He still remains on the farm, however, which is managed by his youngest son Archie. He is fraternally affiliated with the Caryville Lodge of Modern Woodmen of America. Mr Bryce was married March 15, 1883, in the town of Rock Creek, to Sarah E. Ness, who was born in Champlin, NY, Sept. 10, 1862, daughter of Thomas and Martha (Barker) Ness. After a married life of a few days over 30 years, Mrs Bryce passed away on March 19, 1917, her death being a severe shock to her h! usband and children, and deeply deplored throughout the community. She was a faithful and loving helpmate to her husband, a wise and affectionate mother, and a sympathetic and hospitable neighbor. The children born to Mr and Mrs Bryce were five in number, Orrin T, Sadie T., Bessie E., George A. and Archie N. Orrin T., who was born Sept 25, 1885, married Hattie Campbell and has had four children, Ethel S., Evelyn, Claire O. and Alice M., the last mentioned of whom is now deceased. Sadie T., born Nov 29, 1888, is the wife of Oscar Wagnild of Plentywood, Mont., and has three children: George D., Clarence V., and Margaret B. Bessie E., born Aug 31, 1892, is now Mrs Carl Froseth of Caryville, Dunn County. George A., born Dec., 29, 1893, resides on the old Bryce homestead. He married Minnie Cowell, and they have one child, Grace A. Archie N., born Jan 29, 1896, married Sallie Spehle and they are operating the old home farm of their father.
