There were two Myhran families in the East Barton precinct in the 1900 census. Neither of them had a child named Norman so, unless Norman was renamed, it is likely that Norman was born after 1900.

The two families were:

1) Next door to Ole and Josie: Christian, 35, and Gurin, 28, with their children Tollef, 11 (Mar 1889), Gustav, 6 (Mar 1894), Paul, 4 (Feb 1896), and Bertha 5 months (Jan 1900). This family had come to the U. S. from Norway in 1897 although Christian had come a year earlier. Christian owned his farm, free of mortgage.

2) Next door to Carl and Maria Lundberg: Tollef, 41, and Birgit, 37, and their children Bergine, 7 (Apr 1893), Gustav, 5 (July 1894), Oscar, 4 (Feb 1896), and Albert, 2 (Mar 1898). Tollef had come to this country in 1884 and his wife in 1892. All of the children had been born in North Dakota. Tollef owned his farm free of mortgage.

In the 1910 census, both families were still farming in Pierce County, North Dakota and both had had more children.

There were two Randi Ellingbös born in Vang in the 1869-1870 period. One was the legitimate daughter (#4059) of Tollef Oleson Ellingbö and Marit Jøgersdatter. The other was this Randi, the illegitimate daughter of Iver Knutsson Ellingbö and Randi Olsdatter Ellingbö. Randi Iversdatter Ellingbö left Vang on 4 September 1889 for “St. Paul.” A Ragdi J. Ellingboe, spinster, age 19, arrived in New York on September 27, 1889, aboard the S.S. Britannic.

In the 1910 census, she and Thorsten and family were in Hickory Twp, Pennington County (formerly Red Lake County) in Minnesota. At that time, Rande had had 10 children, 8 still living, and 7 of whom (Thorsten A, Olaf, Maria, Hannah, Harald, Ruth, and Rudolph) were still living with her and Thorsten. Rande came to the U.S. in 1889.

A land ownership map from 1911 shows that the Kvale farm in Hickory Twp was 160 acres, the southeast quarter of Section 17.

They were still there in 1920. Rande came to the U.S. in 1889.

In the 1930 census, Randi and Thorsten Kvale were living in south Minneapolis (5344 30th Avenue South, near Lake Nokomis) with their daughters Ragna O, 18, and Agnes V., 16. Thorsten is a cabinet-maker with a sash and door firm.

In the 1940 census, Randi and Thorstein lived in Inglewood City, California, in a house that they owned. Thorstein had been a carpenter for a cabinet manufacturing company. At the time of the census, he was no longer employed and was considered retired. The couple had lived in Los Angeles in 1935. Each had a sixth-grade education.

She died in Paradise, California, where she had lived for 7 years. Her obit (Chico Enterprise-Record, 6 Apr 1956) mentioned a surviving brother Ole Ellingboe of Minnesota. She and her family may not have known that Ole had died many years earlier.

There were two sisters named Anne. If the bygdebok is to be believed (Vang C, p. 284), it’s this Anne, the older one, who had the child named Marith with “lærer Nils N. Stølen.” In the birth record, Marith’s father is called Niels Nielsen Remen.
