Hi all,
I have a Leonard Bergquist born 1863 in Sweden, married to Elizabeth Maria Blomberg f.1880 and who died in 1910. Sometime between 1910 and 1920 Leonard married Katrina Einarsd Eggan who had come to America in 1910 with her son Ole Eggan f.1893 from Trøndelag area. I have found them in the 1920 and 1930 census. Leonard died in 1935. I have Ole's WWI papers and his death and burial in 1921. Katrina's son appears to be buried at Mount Hope Cemetery also having died in 1921 although the record online says born in 1921? The family in Norway only have the information that he died in 1921 while in the military.
What I am searching for is the death date of Katrina Einarsd Eggan Bergquist f.16/3/1868 and her burial. In 1920 and 1930 they are living in Kelly, Bayfield County, Wisconsin on a dairy farm. I have found Leonard's daughter Dagny's obituary (hoping it would mention Katrina) which is listed below. I suspect I will need to find Leonard's obituary or Katrina's to actually find out what happened to Katrina. Leonard is buried in Ashland County.
Katrina has a 87 year old granddaughter who lives in Norway and is wondering what happened to her.
Appreciate any ideas.
