    He farmed in Norway Lake Twp, Kandiyohi County. He came to the U.S. in 1872 according to the 1900 census.

    A Norway Lake church history says that Andrew first came to Wisconsin in 1872.

    In the 1865 Norwegian census, he is most likely Anders Jørgenssen, age 13, son of Jørgen Evensson and Anne Thomasdatter of Pladsen farm in Vang.

    The 1886 land ownership map for Norway Lake Twp in Kandiyohi County shows A J Ellingboe owning three separate parcels: 1) a 159 acre parcel in the southern half of Section 19, a 40 acre parcel in the northern half of Section 19, and a 40 acre parcel in Section 7.

    In a 1915 land ownership map of Kandiyohi County, Andrew owned 160 acres in the southern half of Section 19 of Norway Lake Twp. This plot was a mile from Sunburg and abutted the county line border between Swift and Kandiyohi Counties.

    He died of laryngeal tuberculosis which led to asphyxiation. The Willmar newspaper’s obit (February 15th edition) said that the death was unexpected and caused by a complication of bronchial troubles and pneumonia.
