Or Mildred Helena.

Mildred was 18 and living with her parents in Los Angeles at the time of the 1920 census. Her occupation was shown as a “milliner.”

According to Shirley, Mildred and Ted lived with Ida and Gus for awhile before the divorce was finalized.

In the 1930 census, Mildred (as Mildred Smith, 28, divorced) is living with her father, Albin O. Malm, in Los Angeles. Albin is a widower. Living with them is her son, and his grandson, Theron C., age 5. The boy was born in Iowa, his father in Minnesota. Mildred has no occupation. Albin (or Alvin) is either a milkman or a millman for railroad car construction.

In DHC’s service diary, Mrs. E.E. Eberts’ address is shown as 633 West 121st in Los Angeles. She and Ernest were still there in the 1954 voter registration. They registered as Democrats.

In an interview in the last year of his life when his memory was suspect, DHC claims to have visited Mildred when he was at Camp Roberts in 1944. DHC may have been told to visit Mildred but we can’t be sure that he actually did.

She received her Social Security number in California in 1973.

The U.S. Public Records Index, Vol. 2, shows Mildred H Eberts, b. 29 Oct 1901, living at 4900 Telegraph Road, Apt. 437, Ventura, California.

Her obit from the L.A. Times (6 Dec 1986, p. 79) notes that she was survived by son and daughter-in-law, Ted and Shirley Eberts; step-daughter Murial Kobin; 4 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren.

Or Mortinus Eliasen.

Shown in the 1865 Norwegian census as Martinus Eliassen, living with his parents and four younger siblings. Dee Austring says that in this census Martinus was shown as “19 yo skomager” and was living at Storøren gård #265, Verdal, Nord-Trøndelag, Norway.

Martinus was living in Byvald, Verdal, and Oleanna in Maritvoldvald, Verdal (Vårdalen), at the time of John’s birth. At the time of their marriage, those locations were called Baglovald and Marithvoldvald. Both were living in Maritvoldvald at the time of Hans Peter’s birth.

In the 1875 Norwegian census the family was living on Maritvoldvald with Oleanna’s mother. Martin’s occupation appears to be telegraph operator and farmer.

Martin and Oleanna emigrated to the US from Norway in the early 1880s with all four children. Martin arrived first in 1880 and the rest of the family followed two years later. The family settled in Fergus Falls. The family is listed in the 1885 Minnesota state census as living in Fergus Falls. Martin’s brother Elling is living with them. Martin is 37, Oleana is 48, Johan is 15, Anna is 13, Maria is 11, and Hans is 9.

The girls (and, apparently, Hans) later moved to Duluth, probably after their mother died. Martin remarried after Oleanna's death, according to Edna Cartwright and confirmed in the obituary in the Fergus Falls newspaper. John Everson said that his mother and Marie had a half-sister born in the U.S.

Martin Bye’s obituary said that he arrived in Fergus Falls on May 9, 1880. “Shortly after his arrival, he was employed by H. G. Page in the Red River Mill, and later worked as a miller in the Big A Mill for many years. After retiring from the milling business, he went into business and conducted a store where the Tobacco Mart is now located. Always honest and upright in his business dealings, he gained the respect and good will of all.”

The Red River Mill was built in 1872 and was located on the site of the present Con Agra Montana Inc. on Stanton west of Union Bridge. The old mill burned on March 18, 1915. A story in the Fergus Falls newspaper in 1972 described how Martin’s sons, “John and Hans Bye”, noticed smoke and alerted the night duty men at the mill. One elevator was saved but the total loss was “near $75,000.”

Reportedly survived by 18 grandchildren and 20 great grandchildren but these numbers must include the Wold stepchildren.

Living with the family of his brother-in-law, Theodore Johnson, a butcher, in Fergus Falls at the time of the 1880 census. Shown as “Martinus E. Bye”, age 32, married, laborer.

In the 1885 state census, the whole family is in Fergus Falls. Living with them is 34 year-old Elling Bye.

Couldn’t find him in the 1895 state census.

Living alone as a clothing merchant at the time of the 1900 census.

In the 1902 Fergus Falls city directory, Martin and Sophie live at 123 Bancroft Ave W. Martin is in business with his son (J M Bye & Co.). Boarding with them is Alfred Bye, a student.

In the 1903 Fergus Falls city directory, Martin and Sophie still live at 123 Bancroft Avenue W. He had no occupation.

In the 1905 census he is Martin Bye, 58, living at 123 Bancroft Avenue West in Fergus Falls with Mrs. Carin S., 49, and her two children, Harold S., 17, and Alma O., 13. No one has an occupation. Although Martin and Carin are each shown to have been in Minnesota for 20 years, Martin is shown to have been in the present enumeration district for only 5 years. This may refer to Martin’s moving into Carin’s home on Bancroft Avenue five years before.

In the 1907 directory, he and Sophie live at 123 Bancroft.

In the 1909 directory, he is a farmer, still living with Sophie at 123 Bancroft.

Martin was living with his 2nd wife and her two children at 123 Remington in Fergus Falls at the time of the 1910 census. The house is owned by Carin. Martin’s occupation is peddler of notions.

He was not listed in the 1920 census. The house at 123 Bancroft is owned by a recently-immigrated family from Denmark.

He was living with his son Hans at the time of the 1930 census.

In the 1931 Fergus Falls city directory, Martin lived with Hans and Mary at 126 Channing Avenue W.

Minnesota death certificate 1932-MN-010908 issued in Otter Tail County for “M. E. Bye.”

Or Mortinus.

According to the Sakshaug church book emigration record, he left for Amerika in March of 1882 as Martinus Berntssen Aarfald.

He may have been the 23 year-old M. Orfald in Fergus Falls in the 1885 state census.

In the 1895-1896 Duluth city directory, he is probably the Martinus B Orfald, who lives at “e s 57th Avenue W 2 s of Gosnold.” That Martinus B is a butcher for C O Balstad. In the 1894-1895 city directory, there is a Martin Orfod, butcher, living at “e s 57th av 2 s of Gosnold.”

An article in the November 13, 1901, edition of the Duluth News-Tribune claims that Martin had just returned from the Klondike gold country $15,000 to the good. “However, that was acquired with much hardship as he remarked that he nearly starved for three months shortly after reaching Alaska.”

He was unmarried according to his death certificate. The informant was his brother John B. of Biwabik. He died from crupous pneumonia.

ORFALD, Martinus Berntson (I10194)

15869

Or Myrtle Joanne. She was listed as Joanne M in the 1940 census. Called Joanne in her brother Tom’s obit.

Probably the Joanne Ellingboe who attended Central Washington College of Education in Ellensburg.

In the 1949 Ellensburg, Washington, city directory, she was Joanne Ellingboe, student, living at Kamola Hall.

In the 1950 Bremerton, Washington, city directory, she was a clerk for Hannah & Powell. She lived with her parents at 804 DeKalb.

Joanne Pugh passed away peacefully on Monday, Aug. 14 in Yakima, Washington. She was 86 years old.

Joanne was born June 8, 1931 in Poulsbo, Washington to Theodore and Josie Ellingboe. She went to Central Washington University and enjoyed a 30 year career teaching kindergarten and first grade. She and her husband Durward (Dar) married September 18, 1954 and enjoyed their time living in both Washington State and Canada.

Joanne lived a blessed and fulfilling life, and was eminently loved within her community. She adored music, and was passionate about teaching reading to children. Joanne was fond of baking bread and other Norwegian goodies, which she frequently did for her family and friends. She also enjoyed a good cup of coffee at any time of day. Joanne was a longtime member of the First Lutheran Church in Ellensburg, Washington, where she often played the organ for the Sunday service, and was once Teen Choir Director.

She leaves us rich with memories of her rendition of Silent Night, her famous cinnamon rolls and chocolate chip cookies, her contagious laugh and her bright smile. Joanne’s kind and generous character will be dearly missed and cherished by every life she touched. Her wonderful sense of humor will continue to thrive through Pugh generations to come.

She is survived by her three children, Cheri Ward of Ellensburg, Greg Pugh of Ronald, and Marla Pugh of Zebulon, North Carolina; grandchildren Shane Pugh of Bellevue, Kyra Pugh of Ellensburg, Erin Krueger of Oakland, California; siblings Cle Ellingboe and Dee Pargeter, and several nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by sisters Anne, Esther, her brother Tom, her longtime companion of her later years, Ralph, and her husband Durward Pugh.
