Ole’s property was offered for sale by T.O. Lockrem of Cordele, Georgia, on 25 Feb 1905. It was described as “Lot of land No. 196 containing 202½ acres and 20 acres of land in the northwest corner of lot of land No. 200, all in the 11th district of Dooly County, Georgia.”

In the 1900 census, he and his family farmed in the Militia District 1040, Dooly County, Georgia.

From the book on Rice County Families, as cited in the Dalby database site: Ole O. and Ingeborg Lockrem. Ole O. Lockrem came to the United States with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ole H. Lockrem when he was 3 years old. He was born in 1852 in Vang, Valdres, Norway. He grew up in the Valley Grove area and farmed with his father there. He eventually purchased the land, some in 1878, and the remainder in 1890.

In 1888 he went to Norway for a year’s visit and while there he married Ingeborg G. Hagen in 1889 in Oslo, Norway. She was born in 1863 at Vang, Valdres, to Erik E. Hagen and Ingeborg (Boe), who also emigrated to America, in the late 1800s with their young son, Erik. They settled in the Sogn area, purchasing a small farm. Son, Erik, was killed soon after, at age 22, when struck by falling timber. Ole and Ingeborg returned from Norway in 1889 and resumed farming in Valley Grove until 1898.

In hopes that a warmer climate would alleviate Ole’s rheumatism, they moved to Georgia with their now 5 children and Ole’s mother. Their livestock, machinery and household goods were shipped in 3 boxcars. They purchased 200 acres of land near Cordele and raised mainly peaches and cotton, with both Negro and white hired hands to help pick cotton by hand. Two more children were born here. In 1903, five-year old polio-stricken Edward died, followed in 1904 by his father and grandmother, from malaria, within 4 days of each other. Ingeborg moved back to her farm in Valley Grove in 1905 and in time resumed farming. She died in 1942. Besides Edward, the children were: Ann, who married Andrew Lien. She died at 39. They had 7 children. Inger, married Bernhard Elthon. She died at 53. They had 1 child. Oscar married Hilda Hellerud and they had 5 children. Oscar died at 60. Christine married Oscar O. Hellerud and they had 2 children. Caroline died at birth in Georgia. Christopher, also born in Georgia, married Ann Johnson and they have 3 children.
