I'm doing some research for a friend and need some help.
I'm looking for an Oscar Bjelland who lived in Minnesota. He married a Margaret (Maggie) Hermiston and had a son John b. 7 Oct 1896 in Jackson, Minnesota, d. 13 Feb 1944 in Itasca, Minnesota and a daughter Grace b. 10 Feb 1898 in Minnesota, d. 26 Dec 1974 in Coleraine, Itasca, Minnesota.
Maggie and Oscar divorced and she married a Thomas Sloan. Thomas adopted John and Grace and their last name was changed to Sloan.
In 1900, the US Census shows Maggie, John and Grace were living with her brother and father in Sebeka Village, Wadena, Minnesota.
Oscar may have moved to Wisconsin and gotten remarried.
Is there any information anyone can give me about Oscar.
Thank you,
Keith
