Simon and Emma (Richter) Labrenz

stephaniekeltner95 — 2009-10-09 15:40:10Z

I found a 1930 census listing them in Denhoff, Sheridan, North Dakota. I think he might be the brother to my ggrandma, Wilhelmina Labrenz Reich who lived in Hazen ND.
Any info would be appreciated.

Morley & Straight

lindaswalin — 2009-09-28 13:35:05Z

Elizabeth Morley died in 1931 and is buried in Goodrich Cemetery. I would like to know her exact date of death and that of her husband Daniel Morley. He died earlier than her but I don't know where he is buried. Truman & Marietta Slaight also lived in Sheridan Co in Boone township. I would like to know their death dates and burial places. All of these people were Methodists. Appreciate any help.

Hi,

If anybody plans on going to any cemeteries in or near Goodrich, I would appreciate if they can look for headstones for the following couple, who May have died in Goodrich, and MAY be buried there.

Julius Wagnitz, born about 1824, died between 1910 & 1915
Minnie (Wilhelmine) Wagnitz, born about 1829, died between 1910 & 1915

Thank you,

death of Wallis (Wallace) Bittner 1900-1910 Sheridan County, ND

BarbaraCady73 — 2007-12-19 02:01:04Z

Daniel and Eva Bittner(Bettner)appear in Wells, Wells, ND
in the 1900 census with a son Wallis (Wallace?) Bittner
born May 1894. His father was a minister.
The 1910 census does not contain Wallis, so assume he died
between 1900-1910 and the family appearing in Goodrich, Sheridan, ND in 1910.
Is there a burial of Wallis Bittner in ND?

Goodrich township records

NHoltman54 — 2006-09-14 17:26:11Z

I am looking for information regarding any records of land ownership, church records, historical information, or access to newspapers about Goodrich in the late 1800's and early 1900's.

My great grandparents, Alfred and Susanna Poulson settled there in 1898 and were farmers. They were members of the Methodist Episcopal church. My great grandmother died in 1906 and is buried in the Goodrich City Cemetery. I have an obituary from "The Citizen". I would like to know if there are any newspaper or church records from August 1911 that would show anything about the death of my great grandfather, Alfred Poulson. He is listed in the 1910 census under "Paulson" as living in Goodrich, but he is not buried in the family plot in the Goodrich cemetery and I am looking for clues as to where he might be buried.

Re: Goodrich township records

NHoltman54 — 2006-09-14 17:26:11Z

Thank you for the info. I already wrote for the death certificate and one was not found. Apparently they weren't always recorded in 1911, I have found that to be true kind of all over the country in the late 1800's and early 1900's.

I have seen the entries for my great grandmother and Alta and Lloyd and found them mentioned in a note by my grandmother. I also have pictures of their grave taken by some family members who visited North Dakota. The burial in Boone County is news to me, it could be an actual Paulson as I have seen an Alfred J. Paulson in the census, but I will check it out. I have a pretty comprehensive list of the children of Alfred and Susanna from the note my grandmother wrote, it just looks like she stopped in the middle and never finished. I really appreciate your help and will follow up on it.

Alfred Poulson of Indiana & North Dakota

NHoltman54 — 2006-09-14 17:26:11Z

I am having difficulty finding any information at all about my great grandfather, Alfred John Poulson. He is almost non-existant in the census records as far as I can tell. I have him in 1880 in Cass County, IN; can't find him in 1900, although I have an obituary for his wife stating they moved to Goodrich, Sheridan County, ND in 1898. In 1910 I find him in Sheridan Cty, ND. He supposedly died August 13, 1911, but I can find no record of his death or burial anywhere in ND. I also cannot trace him farther back than the 1880 census. He was supposedly born to John & Susanna Bryant Poulson Jan. 29, 1853 in Pulaski Cty, IN, but this family just does not show up anywhere that I can find.
Would appreciate any evidence of the family anyone has come across.

NHoltman54 — 2006-09-14 17:26:11Z

I would love to have copies of the photos! That would be great! I appreciate the atlas info. 1914 would be too late probably as my great grandfather died in 1911 and his children did not remain in the area.

Martin & Anna Thompson

zdenka34 — 2006-07-12 15:23:13Z

Hi--I'm searching for a Martin J. Thompson & his mother, Anna Thompson who may have lived in McClusky sometime after 1910 & before 1930. Martin was born 18 Jan. 1870 in Norway & moved with his parents to Jackson County, Wis. where they are listed on the 1880 Norwegians in Wis. Census.Martin was shown living along in Dover Twsp.,N.D. in the 1900 Census. His father died in 1904. In 1910 he's shown living with his wife, Louise & children plus his mother, Anna, in Dover Twsp. N.D. I have reason to believe he moved to McClusky sometime after that with his family & possibly his mother, if she was still alive. She was born abt 1838 & I believe she died about 1918. In 1930 Census his wife, Louise, is shown living as head of house with children so believe Martin died prior to that. Any help greatly appreciated.
