A Robert David Marshall was born in St. Louis County on August 13, 1915, to a woman whose maiden name was Szczyaielski. His SS# was issued in Minnesota before 1951. That is the Robert Marshall who died in June of 1972 (apparently outside of Minnesota).

In the 1920 census, four-year-old Robert Marshall is the son of Mike and Clara Marshall of Duluth. Clara, 30, was born in Wisconsin to parents born in Germany. Mike, 33, was born in Minnesota to parents born in Ireland. He was a laborer for a roofing company. Robert had a 7 year-old sister Dorothy.

That family was still in Duluth in 1930 (as Mickle M and Clara Marshal). There was now a third child, Lorraine, 12, apparently missed in the 1920 census. Mickle is a foreman in a blacksmith shop. Dorothy, now 18, is a stock girl in a paint and varnish factory. Now Mickle’s and Clara’s parents were born in Poland.

Mike Martin Marshall registered for the draft in Duluth on June 5, 1917. He was a sheet metal worker for a roofing company and was married with a wife and two children. He had been born in Duluth on 15 Oct 1886 and lived at 4616 W Michigan St. He is probably the Michael M Marshall who died in St. Louis County on 20 Feb 1943. His wife is probably the Clara Ann Marshall who died in St. Louis County on 25 Mar 1965.

In the 1940 Duluth city directory, he and Gertrude live at 506 East 6th. His occupation is laborer. In the 1944 Duluth city directory, he is Robert D Marshall, wife Gertrude, a utilityman for the Division of Public Works. They live at 1616-1/2 East 6th.

In the 1940 census, he and Gertrude and Robert live at 505 East 6th Street in Duluth. He was a laborer for a public works project (and answered “yes” for Column 22). Robert had had 3 years of high school, Gertrude had had 1 year of high school.

His obit was published in the Newport News Daily Press on p. 6 of its 20 Jun 1972 issue.

His obit on Find A Grave:

Robert 'Bob' Marshall was born and lived most of his life in Duluth, Minnesota. He was the son of Michael Martin Marshall and Clara (nee Szczygielska) Marshall and the only son of four children of the couple. A sister, Florence, died in infancy.

Bob married Gertrude Nellie June (nee Anderson) Hendrickson on August 1, 1938 in Duluth. The couple had four children, all sons. Their first child, David Dale, died shortly after his birth. Bob worked for the Duluth City Water Works Department.

Bob and Gertrude relocated for a few years to Newport News, Virginia, prior to his passing there. His sister Dorothy and her husband, Walter Paulsen, had been living in Newport News for some time. Bob worked for the Newport News City while there.

Bob was preceded in death by his infant son, David Dale. He was survived by his wife, three sons, his step-children, two grandchildren, and his sister Dorothy Paulsen.

According to a Record of Aliens Pre-Examined in Canada, from 22 June 1922, he came to the U.S. from Norway in 1901, arriving in New York. His last permanent address was Nokomis, Saskatchewan. His nearest relative in Norway was his sister Raghild Lakvoll in Christiania. He had last visited the U.S. in 1921, departing for Canada in April. He was going to see his wife Olga and family in Little Falls and intended to stay for two months.

In February of 1923, he was recorded as entering the U.S. at the port of Winnipeg. This may be the travel referred to in the pre-examination noted above. He claimed to have no family in Canada. His last permanent address was in Nokomis. His final destination was Little Falls.

He was a farm laborer in Little Falls in the 1930 census.

In the 1940 census, he was an inmate in the Anoka State Hospital in Anoka County, Minnesota, where he had resided since at least 1935. The census form refers to that institution as an insane asylum.

Bonnie Lee Bousman, 69, of Viroqua and formerly of Westby, passed away on Tuesday, July 7, 2015, at Gundersen Lutheran Medical Center in La Crosse surrounded by her family.

She was born on Dec. 15, 1945, in Viroqua to Lawrence and Eileen (Nundahl) Mikkelson. She grew up on the family farm on Asbury Ridge, rural Viroqua. Her children and siblings all enjoyed the memories of the farm that Mom so vividly remembered. Her ability to relive and share her memories with the most finite of details was always a delight for the listeners to hear. Bonnie attended Viroqua High School and on Aug. 3, 1963, she married Norman Bousman in Caledonia, Minn. She worked as a housekeeper at the Vernon Memorial Hospital and Bethany St. Joseph Care Center, as well as for many private families. She loved to clean and took great pride in her work.

Bonnie loved to go for car rides, cruise car lots, but especially enjoyed reminiscing about the cars of her youth and her beloved Edsel hubcaps that were her Daddy’s. Bonnie enjoyed old-time music, visiting with her family and dancing a good polka. She will forever be remembered for her mouthwatering cherry cheesecake and “Bonnie’s Baked Beans,” a family favorite at family gatherings. Bonnie always had a twinkle in her eye, a dimpled grin and a “Heigutt” to share.

Bonnie is survived by her husband, Norman; her children, Teresa (Mark Helgeson) of Stoddard, Carrie (Patrick Dahlquist) of Decorah, Iowa, and Nathan (Rebecca Elton) of Sparta; her grandchildren, Taylor, Ethan, Leah, Camille and Owen Dahlquist of Decorah, Iowa, Lauren and Marisa Helgeson of Stoddard, and Abigail Bousman of Sparta. She is also survived by two great-granddaughters, Eileigh and Emiyah Dahlquist of Decorah; four sisters, Elaine DeWitt of Westby, Cheryl (John) Nelson of Westby, Patricia (Roger) Potts of La Crosse and Vicki (Lonnie) Christianson of Coon Valley; three brothers, Randy Mikkelson of Westby, Kent (Renae) Mikkelson of Westby and Kurt Mikkelson of Viroqua; other relatives and many friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Arden and Charles who drowned in Texas and Jerry David Mikkelson who died in infancy; a nephew, Jerry Mikkelson; two brothers-in-law, Jerry DeWitt and Bill Bausman; and many beloved uncles, aunts and cousins.
Funeral services were held on Friday, July 10, 2015, at the Thorson Funeral Home in Viroqua with Pastor Julie Wollman officiating. Burial was in the Westby Coon Prairie Cemetery at rural Westby. Serving as honorary casket bearers were Tyler Mikkelson, Eric Mikkelson and Jason Mikkelson.

In an interview in his last year of life, when his memory was suspect, DHC recalled the 1938 visit to Viroqua which he found very boring because of all the visiting of relatives. He claimed it was a two-week trip, during which time they stayed at the Ekums’ Cozy Cabins. (It was only one week.) He remembers playing golf one day with his dad at the Viroqua golf course. He also recalls meeting one of Carl’s sons, who was about his age, showing him around Carl’s tobacco farm. DHC remembers that Carl’s farm produced especially good chewing tobacco. He also learned about trapping moles.

In that interview, DHC also recalled his appendicitis operation in 1940, after which he spent time (including his 16th birthday) in the hospital and watched the Aquatennial parade from the balcony of the hospital. (This is recorded in Cora’s diary.)

In the 1948 Minneapolis city directory, he is listed as a salesman for Carlson’s Sporting Goods and residing at 4230 Minnehaha. Elaine is not listed.

In the 1950 Minneapolis city directory, he is listed as the manager of Carlson’s and residing at 2255 “Olk” Shakopee Rd.

In July of 1952, he and his family moved to 2239 East Old Shakopee Road.

DHC got a $10,000 loan, at 5% interest, from Mrs. Christine Larson, 1902 4th Avenue South in Minneapolis, tel. no. FE2-7966. The payments were to be $66 per month with the first payment due on March 1, 1956, and the remaining payments due on the first of each month. All payments were recorded in a small book maintained by Christine Larson. Not all payments were made on the 1st of the month. The last payment was recorded February 5, 1962, which left the balance at 7961.75. Presumably, the balance was paid off at that time because the entry of that February payment was made in the book by DHC. Also presumably then, with the loan repaid, Christine gave the book to DHC.

The official description of the 2239 property, for the 1967 Hennepin County real estate taxes, was:

That part of Lot 50 lying S of N 147 6/10 feet thereof and Wly of a line running from a point in N line of S 258 16/100 feet of Lot 49 dis 285 feet W from E line therof to a point in S line of N 116 3/10 feet of Lot 52 dis 652 feet W from E line therof.
