Hi
I have met your grandfather about 2 years ago. My Great grandfather was Syvert Olson and lived by Odin, MN. I think that he changed his name from Ystenes shortly after coming to Minnesota. I know that they lived in Beaver Creek for one year after they were married. Your grandfather Richard remembers visiting the farm in MN where Nick Ystenes lived and helped on the farm of my Great Uncle Ed Olson. Hope to hear more from you.
