Ernst Rudolph Ekman, August Edward Ekman, Olof Henrik (Henry) Ekman Silverton 1910s onwards
I am looking for information about Olof Henrik EKMAN born 1856 in Sweden, lived for a time in Minnesota, moved to Oregon to live in Silverton with son Ernst Rudolph and wife by 1930, died in Salem, Marion Co. OR 25 Apr 1941. He was buried in Union Cemetery, St. Paul, MN. His son Ernst Rudolph was born in Minnesota in 1887. Ernst married an Ada H. in June of 1916, and I believe they adopted a son James. Ernst was a mortician and undertaker in Silverton from around 1917. He died in Silverton 15 Feb 1966 (obituary lookup would be greatly appreciated!). His brother August, who may never have married, was living with Ernst and his wife in 1920 in Silverton, and his World War I draft card places him in Silverton in 1917-18. He worked as a painter (of cars?). He seems to have moved on to Arizona later.
I'd be pleased to get any information whatever about this family.
