Rasks in Mankato

My previous note said that I have pictures of Rasks. They are unidentified, but they belonged to my mother who said they came from Norway to their cousin's in Mankato. I have sent a large group of pictures from Anne Marie Paulsen's collection to the Mankato Historical Society since I was not able to further identify them. Whether or not the Rasks are in them I do not know, but I do have large pictures which I would like to send to the family who should have them. My grandfather arrived in North Mankato about 1910 and also lived in Mankato. Since the Rasks were already here, one can judge from that as to when they came, but I do not have their names in my files. It may be that a girl cousin married a Rask and who knows if he was from Norway! Hope this means something to somebody. I could have my son put their pictures through the computer, but not before the end of September.

Sincerely, Alice
