| 16231 | Oleanna Johannesdatter, 43, and her four children (Jon Martinussen, 11, Marie Martinussdatter, 7, Anna Martinussdatter, 9, and Hans Martinussen, 5) left Norway on 5 April 1882 on the feeder ship Tasso to Hull, England. Their destination was Fergus Falls, Minnesota. Lived for awhile in Fergus Falls, later in Duluth. After marriage, she and Andrew lived in Duluth for a year or two, then moved to Cedar Lake. Edna Cartwright, Anna's sister's daughter, said in a 1970 letter that her mother remembered Anna as a beautiful young girl. Edna herself remembered Anna as a lovely person whom she loved almost as much as her own mother. Edna said that she wished Anna could have had an easier life. Died at the home of her son (Albin) where she had been for a week following two weeks of hospitalization at St. Joseph's Hospital, Brainerd. In addition to, presumably, all of her living children, the following people attended Anna’s funeral according to a newspaper account: Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Graham and family, Oak Park, Ill.; Mrs. Marie Orfold and Mr. and Mrs. Bob Orfold, Biwabik; Mr. Conrad Skogen, Duluth; Mr. and Mrs. Knute Johnson and family, St. Louis Park; and Mr. and Mrs. Donald Carlson, Minneapolis. David believes that there may have been some hard feelings in the family or among the siblings regarding the inheritance from Martinus after his death in 1932. All or most of it went to Hans Peter and little or nothing to Anna or Marie. Anna rarely, perhaps never, got back to Fergus Falls to visit her father or brothers after she left for Duluth. Anne’s letter to her husband, addressed to him in Deer River, Minnesota: (translated from the Norwegian) Cedar Lake, July 30th, 1906 Dear Andrew, I received a letter from you on the 26th. You asked about the haying but I have already written two letters to you since we were through with the haying and with this letter it will be the 3rd. You must not be getting all the letters I write you. We finished the haying on the 18th of July. We filled the hay barn and also made a big stack. There came a little rain on the last load but that didn’t hurt anything. Mrs. Holem and Mrs. Rud visited me yesterday and last Thursday I was to a Ladies Aid at Mrs. Rom. The pigs have grown a lot since you were home. We have so many flowers blooming. We had bad luck with our gander. He fell on his head in a deep bucket with water in and he drowned. Now the goose goes around here alone. We are all well and hope that you are fine also. There aren’t many berries this year. We find only enough to eat. Next year if we are all well and you work away from home I want to go with you. I am tired of being so alone in the wilds. Also it will be better schooling for the children. Greetings from all the boys, Astrid, and Lillie. Write as soon as you can so we will hear how everything is with you. Best of everything to my dear husband. Your Annie One of her granddaughters recalls remembers Annie as “incredibly sweet and kind.” In her last years, Annie’s legs were ulcerated and wrapped. “She would let me sit on her lap over my mother’s protests. She would frequently instruct me ‘Go get my handbag’ and she would fish out a quarter - great wealth back then!” Death Certificate ID# 1949-MN-003383 Date of Death: 03/22/1949 County of Death: CROW WING The August 21, 1947, edition of the Brainerd Daily Dispatch, probably referring to August 14, 1947, records: “Mr. and Mrs. Henry Norton of Chicago, Mrs. Arthur Cartwright and Mrs. J.B. Orfold of Biwabik visited with Mrs. Anne Everson and John Everson on Thursday.” She died of cardiac failure. Her son Albin, of Aitkin, was the informant for her death certificate. Albin knew that Anna’s father was Martin Bye but he did not know the name of Anna’s mother. She died intestate. The probate hearing was to be May 24, 1949, according to a notice in the edition of the Brainerd newspaper. Albin Everson, petitioner, asked that Naomi Everson be appointed “administratrix.” The probate judge was L. B. Kinder, the same judge who married John and Mabel. | BYE, Anna Gustava (Annie) Martinusdatter (I44)

| 16232 | Oleanna Johannesdatter, 43, and her four children (Jon Martinussen, 11, Marie Martinussdatter, 7, Anna Martinussdatter, 9, and Hans Martinussen, 5) left Norway on 5 April 1882 on the feeder ship Tasso to Hull, England. Their destination was Fergus Falls, Minnesota. The 1891-92 Duluth directory lists two of the Byes. Mary Bye is shown as "domestic, John Orfald" and living in West Duluth. Marie Bye was also called Mary. Hans Bye is shown as "driver, Orfald & Aune" and his address as "boards 2330 W Michigan." Orfald & Aune was a meat store at 2101 W. Superior in Duluth that was a partnership between Martin Orfald and Peter Aune. In the 1893-1894 Duluth city directory, a Hans Bye, laborer, lives at 2302 West Michigan. “Mr. Bye took a prominent part in the affairs of the city during his lifetime. He was for a number of years employed in the flower mills of the city, and later operated a grocery store in partnership with his brother, the late J. M. Bye. He served as alderman from the Fourth ward for several terms and gave freely of his time in the interests of this city and its citizens. He was popular with his fellow-man and highly regarded in the community.” In the 1900 census, the newly-married Hans and Marie were living at 208 Bismark Avenue in a home that they rented. Hans is 24 (born Sept 1875) and Marie is 25 (born Nov 1874). They had been married 0 years and Marie had had 0 children. Both had emigrated from Norway in 1882. Hans is shown as a millhand in a flour mill. In the 1902 Fergus Falls city directory, he was Hans P Bye, a miller for the F Flour Mills Co. He and Mary lived at 208 Bismarck Avenue E. In the 1903 Fergus Falls city directory, he was Hans P Bye, an oiler for F Flour Mills Co. He and Mary lived at 108 Bancroft Avenue E. In the 1905 Fergus Falls directory, he was Hans P Bye, still an oiler for the F Flour Mills Co. He and Mary resided at 823 Vine Street. In the 1905 census Hans (29, a miller) and Marie, 30, live in Biwabik, Twp 58, St. Louis County. The census form that he and Marie are listed on calls their location the “Duluth Mine Location” and is part of a different set of forms from the one that lists John and Marie Orfald who were also in Biwabik at this time. Hans’s entry seems to indicate that he and Marie had only been in Biwabik for a couple of months. In the 1907 and 1909 Fergus Falls directories, he and Marie live at 126 Channing Avenue W. He is still an oiler for the F Flour Mills Co. Hans was one of the charter members of Trønderlag of America in 1908. This was (and still is) the bygdelag for emigrants and their descendants from the Trøndelag region of Norway. Hans Bye, of Fergus Falls and from Vårdalen, was listed in the Trønderlaget’s 1910 yearbook. In that yearbook, Hans is shown as having emigrated to the U.S. in 1882. By the time of the 1910 census, Hans, 34, and Marie, 35, were living at 126 Channing in a house that they owned without a mortgage. They had been married for 10 years and Marie had never had any children. Hans is a workman in a carpenter shop. Marie appears to have emigrated in 1894. In the 1911 directory, he has a grocery business called the H P Bye & Co., a partnership with his brother with a store at 220 Lincoln Avenue W. Hans and Mary still live at 126 Channing Avenue W. Hans, his brother John, and perhaps their uncle Theodor were original shareholders of the Farmers and Merchants State Bank of Fergus Falls when it was organized on May 22, 1915. The bank opened for business on August 2nd. Registered for the draft on September 12, 1918, in Fergus Falls. His birthday is listed as September 24. He lives at 126 Channing Avenue N., Fergus Falls. He is a merchant for the H. P. Bye and Co. at 220 Lincoln Avenue N., Fergus Falls. His nearest relative is his wife, Marie, of the Channing Avenue address. He is described as tall and of stout build with blue eyes and grey hair. In the 1920 census, Hans is listed as having no occupation (“none”). Hans is 44, Marie is 45. Hans emigrated in 1882 and Marie in 1893. They are still living at 126 Channing Ave. In the 1930 census, Hans, 54, and Mary, 55, were living at 126 Chamin (sp?) Ave. in Fergus Falls with Anna Stangvick (“sister”) and Martin (“grandfather”) in a $4000 house that Hans owned. Hans is a salesman in a “shoe department.” The household had a radio. Anna was 38 and single; Martin was 82 and widowed. All four people are shown as having been born in Norway as were their parents. Hans is showing as having emigrated in 1882. The corresponding years of emigration for Mary, Anna, and Martin are shown as 1895, 1899, and 1880 respectively. In the 1931 city directory, he and Mary live at 126 Channing Avenue W. In the 1935/36 Fergus Falls city directory, he and Marie reside at 126 Channing Avenue West. In the 1939/40 Fergus Falls city directory, their telephone number is 937W. In the 1940 census, he and Marie and Marie’s sister Anna live at 126 Channing in Fergus Falls. Hans has no occupation, is shown as unable to work, but earned $1200 the previous year. Hans and Marie were educated through the fifth grade. In his September 13, 1945 letter to his brother Harold, George Everson wrote: “Hans Bye was here the last part of August. He stayed a whole week. He did not go to Biwabik. He said he enjoyed his visit very much.” In all likelihood, that was Hans’s last visit to Deerwood. According to his death certificate, Hans died of stomach cancer which he had had for several months. He spent the last three-and-a-half days of his life at St. Luke’s Hospital in Fergus Falls. His “usual residence” was 126 West Channing, Fergus Falls. Hans did not have a social security number. Margaret Bye Ellingboe was the informant for his death certificate and she knew that Hans’s parents were Martinus Bye and Olianna Johnson.

She had lived in Portland until 1969 when she moved to Palm Springs. Her survivors were her three daughters, Maren and Marsha of Napa and Maggie Vierra of Tempe, her son Chris, and her brothers Walter and Russell of Portland.
