The January 9, 1954, edition of the FFDJ noted that “Miss Anna Stangvik returned the first of the week from Duluth where she was a guest of her brother-in-law and sister, Mrs. H. S. Wold and family, through the holidays.”

She is probably the Randi Stangvik, b. June 1887 in Norway, “niece”, who is living on the Ole Aarnes farm in Dane Prairie Twp, Otter Tail County, in the 1900 census. She came to the U.S. in 1897. So Randi is either the niece of Ole, born Jan 1857 in Norway, or of Ole’s wife Randi, born Apr 1869 in Norway. Ole came to the U.S. in 1881, the older Randi in 1886. Next door to the Aarnes farm is the farm of Martinus Torvik. Martin and his wife came to the U.S. in 1887. It would seem that the younger Randi is the niece of the older Randi. The older Randi is probably the Randi Martinusdatter born 22 Apr 1869 in Stangvik (bapt. 30 May) to Martinus Larson Torvik and Marie Lornsdatter.

The 9 year-old Randi Stangvig arrived in New York with her family on May 20, 1897, aboard the S.S. Aurania. The family, bound for Wadena, Minnesota, consisted of Ole O. Stangvig, 50, Marit, 46, Lars, 20, Peder, 17, John, 11, Randi, 9, and Anne 4. John and Rangdi are servants in Otter Tail County in the 1900 census.

Her daughter Louise Wold was the informant for her death certificate. Both Louise and Randi lived at 1025 E. 8th Street in Duluth. Randi died of pneumonia after a stroke brought on by diabetes and obesity.

Her obituary was published on p. 6A:3 of the June 18, 1977, edition of the Duluth News-Tribune:

Randi Wold, 89, of 1025 E. 8th St., died Friday in a Duluth hospital. Born in Stangvik, Norway, she had been a Duluth resident for 67 years. She was a member of the first graduating class of registered nurses from Wright Memorial Hospital in Fergus Falls. She was a member of Trinity Lutheran Church. She is survived by three sons, Harold, Fort Worth, Tex., Richard, San Raphael, Calif., and Robert, St. Paul; five daughters, Helen (James) Merrick, Glen Rock, Pa.; Kathryn (Arthur) Bowers, Minneapolis, and Lucille (Oscar) Olsen, and Ruth and Louise Wold, all of Duluth; six grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

The JCC record (copy in Manitowoc public library) says that Knud Sandness died on 8 April 1895 and was born on 22 June 1829.

Knud's brother Tosten had immigrated in 1849, via Wisconsin, to Decorah, Iowa. That Tosten was the father of Anne Sandness (#4574).

The Thompson (Sandness) family emigrated in 1852 via Quebec. On steamship Atlantic when it sank in Lake Erie. They survived the sinking of the steamship Atlantic in Lake Erie on their way to Wisconsin. In 1852, Knud Thompson (Sandness) (1829-1929) and Anne Torgeirsdatter Strande (1819-1889) arrived in Wisconsin with two children. Five more children were born to them in Wisconsin.

Lived in Two Rivers Twp in 1855. Worked for Two Rivers Tannery in 1856. He was farming in Gibson Twp by 1870.

Knud Thompson served in the Civil War. Enlisted as private in Co. H, 22nd Wisconsin Infantry during Civil War, 5/01/1865 to 17/05/65. Transferred to 3rd Regiment.

His surname was listed as Windingstad or Vindingstad in Church Book records. His birth and christening records are found in Slidre Kirkebok No. 2, p. 329, Births, and on microfilm reel of Ø. Slidre Kirkebok, p. 336, reel # 0125644. His vaccination record is found in Slidre Kirkebok No. 4, p. 186, Vaccinations, #81, 6 Dec. 1843. His confirmation record is in Slidre Kirkebok No. 4 (Hegge, Rogne, Volbu), 1831-1848, p. 115, Confirmations,#37, 27 July 1845. Marriage record is in Ø. Slidre Kirkebok No. 1 (1849-1874), p. 171, Marriages. Emigration date of 1 April 1852 listed in Ø. Slidre Kirkebok No. 1, p. 241, #43), with wife Anne Torgersd. (#44), daughter Ingeborg (#45) and son Thomas (#46). Name on emigration record is Knud Thomassen Vindingstad. (Statsarkivet, Hamar)

Jim Ellingboe says: The Thompson (Sandness) family came from the adjoining {to Vang i Valdres} county of East Slidre. Last year I visited the ruins of the house on the farm Sannes (Sandness) on Windingstad where they lived in before leaving Norway.

Named Knut Sandness in burial record. Knud and Anne are buried in the Jambo Creek Cemetery. There is some confusion regarding the inscription on the gravestone of both Knud and Anne Thompson. "HUSTRUTIL " means "wife of". A separate entry for Anne based on Jambo Creek Church records is mistakenly read as 7 Dec. 1889, whereas it should be 1 Dec. 1889 and the age should be 71, not 78. This is the same as the information on the stone, i.e., not a separate person. Knud is listed in the Jambo Creek Church burial records as "Knud Sandness".

The Johnson Family Tree on Ancestry.com has Ila dying 23 Dec 1978, no location given. This tree lists Ila twice, with the same death date, but with birth dates as 15 July 1911 and about 1913. Another version of the Johnson Family Tree (same owner) uses only the 15 Jul 1911 date of birth for Ila.

The SSDI records this death as Ila Smith, last residence Whittier, California. Her Social Security number had been issued in California and she was born 15 Jul 1911. The California Death Index records this death as Ila J Smith, Los Angeles County, no mother’s maiden name shown.

In the 1940 census, she is Ila Searing, a 28 year-old widow living with her widowed mother “Celina” in Huntington Park. “Celina” is a saleslady in a retail dry goods establishment and Ila is a “new worker.”

JOHNSON, Ila (I16886)

The Johnson Family Tree on Ancestry.com lists her as Selina Elizabeth, born in Mount Pleasant in Sanpete County, Utah, on 4 Jan 1886.

She is Selina E in the 1910 census. In that census, she is shown as having had 4 children, 3 still living.

In the 1940 census, she is the widow “Celina” Johnson living with her daughter Ila in Huntington Park. “Celina” is a saleslady in a retail dry goods establishment.

She lived at 1064 West 42nd Street in Los Angeles in September of 1948 when she applied for a headstone for her son’s grave.

The Johnson Family Tree on Ancestry.com lists another child of Ole and Selina: Elwin Johnson, b. 9 Jun 1914 and d. 2 Jan 2002 in Ord, Nebraska. Another family tree of the same name and with the same owner, does not list Elwin as a child of Ole and Selina. No such child is listed in the 1920 or 1930 censuses.
