Bonnie Lee Bousman, 69, of Viroqua and formerly of Westby, passed away on Tuesday, July 7, 2015, at Gundersen Lutheran Medical Center in La Crosse surrounded by her family.

She was born on Dec. 15, 1945, in Viroqua to Lawrence and Eileen (Nundahl) Mikkelson. She grew up on the family farm on Asbury Ridge, rural Viroqua. Her children and siblings all enjoyed the memories of the farm that Mom so vividly remembered. Her ability to relive and share her memories with the most finite of details was always a delight for the listeners to hear. Bonnie attended Viroqua High School and on Aug. 3, 1963, she married Norman Bousman in Caledonia, Minn. She worked as a housekeeper at the Vernon Memorial Hospital and Bethany St. Joseph Care Center, as well as for many private families. She loved to clean and took great pride in her work.

Bonnie loved to go for car rides, cruise car lots, but especially enjoyed reminiscing about the cars of her youth and her beloved Edsel hubcaps that were her Daddy’s. Bonnie enjoyed old-time music, visiting with her family and dancing a good polka. She will forever be remembered for her mouthwatering cherry cheesecake and “Bonnie’s Baked Beans,” a family favorite at family gatherings. Bonnie always had a twinkle in her eye, a dimpled grin and a “Heigutt” to share.

Bonnie is survived by her husband, Norman; her children, Teresa (Mark Helgeson) of Stoddard, Carrie (Patrick Dahlquist) of Decorah, Iowa, and Nathan (Rebecca Elton) of Sparta; her grandchildren, Taylor, Ethan, Leah, Camille and Owen Dahlquist of Decorah, Iowa, Lauren and Marisa Helgeson of Stoddard, and Abigail Bousman of Sparta. She is also survived by two great-granddaughters, Eileigh and Emiyah Dahlquist of Decorah; four sisters, Elaine DeWitt of Westby, Cheryl (John) Nelson of Westby, Patricia (Roger) Potts of La Crosse and Vicki (Lonnie) Christianson of Coon Valley; three brothers, Randy Mikkelson of Westby, Kent (Renae) Mikkelson of Westby and Kurt Mikkelson of Viroqua; other relatives and many friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Arden and Charles who drowned in Texas and Jerry David Mikkelson who died in infancy; a nephew, Jerry Mikkelson; two brothers-in-law, Jerry DeWitt and Bill Bausman; and many beloved uncles, aunts and cousins.
Funeral services were held on Friday, July 10, 2015, at the Thorson Funeral Home in Viroqua with Pastor Julie Wollman officiating. Burial was in the Westby Coon Prairie Cemetery at rural Westby. Serving as honorary casket bearers were Tyler Mikkelson, Eric Mikkelson and Jason Mikkelson. Serving as casket bearers were Jordan Nelson, Evan Nelson, Joel DeWitt, Brian Christianson, Brady Christianson, Kevin Potts and Garrett Mikkelson.

In an interview in his last year of life, when his memory was suspect, DHC recalled the 1938 visit to Viroqua which he found very boring because of all the visiting of relatives. He claimed it was a two-week trip, during which time they stayed at the Ekums’ Cozy Cabins. (It was only one week.) He remembers playing golf one day with his dad at the Viroqua golf course. He also recalls meeting one of Carl’s sons, who was about his age, showing him around Carl’s tobacco farm. DHC remembers that Carl’s farm produced especially good chewing tobacco. He also learned about trapping moles.

In that interview, DHC also recalled his appendicitis operation in 1940, after which he spent time (including his 16th birthday) in the hospital and watched the Aquatennial parade from the balcony of the hospital. (This is recorded in Cora’s diary.)

In the 1948 Minneapolis city directory, he is listed as a salesman for Carlson’s Sporting Goods and residing at 4230 Minnehaha. Elaine is not listed.

In the 1950 Minneapolis city directory, he is listed as the manager of Carlson’s and residing at 2255 “Olk” Shakopee Rd.

In July of 1952, he and his family moved to 2239 East Old Shakopee Road.

DHC got a $10,000 loan, at 5% interest, from Mrs. Christine Larson, 1902 4th Avenue South in Minneapolis, tel. no. FE2-7966. The payments were to be $66 per month with the first payment due on March 1, 1956, and the remaining payments due on the first of each month. All payments were recorded in a small book maintained by Christine Larson. Not all payments were made on the 1st of the month. The last payment was recorded February 5, 1962, which left the balance at 7961.75. Presumably, the balance was paid off at that time because the entry of that February payment was made in the book by DHC. Also presumably then, with the loan repaid, Christine gave the book to DHC.

The official description of the 2239 property, for the 1967 Hennepin County real estate taxes, was:

That part of Lot 50 lying S of N 147 6/10 feet thereof and Wly of a line running from a point in N line of S 258 16/100 feet of Lot 49 dis 285 feet W from E line therof to a point in S line of N 116 3/10 feet of Lot 52 dis 652 feet W from E line therof.

GUSTAFSON, Arvilla Charlotte (I8085)

Clara’s birth to “Sever Nundal” was reported in the July 29, 1898, issue of the Crawford County Advance (page 1, column 2) published in Soldiers Grove.

The Kickapoo Scout’s 16 Jul 1918 edition noted that Thea Thompson and Clara Nundahl were going to La Crosse for employment.

At the time of the 1930 census, Odin and Clara and family were living in Franklin township on a farm next to Clara's brother Carl at "Brookville & Black Bottom Road." Odin and Clara are shown as renting their farm. The family consisted of Odin, 35, Clara, 32, Benetta, 9, Orland, 8, Mildred, 6, Selma, 5, Helen, 3+, Agnes, 2+, and Clifford, 0, and a lodger/servant named Martin Dahlberg, 21. The household apparently did not have a radio. Odin was first married at age 25, Clara at age 23. Clara's parents are shown as having been born in Norway; everyone else was born in Wisconsin. Odin is shown as being a veteran of the World War.

On the other side of the Olson farm was Anna Thompson and down the road past Carl's farm was Sever Nundahl's farm and Tilman Nundahl's farm.

In the 1940 census, the Olson farm is listed a few households down from the Carl Nundahls but on the same census page. Odin and Clara did not own their farm (Carl owned his).

Cora said that Clara was her best friend in childhood.

Clara was shown as unmarried and living at home at the time of the 1920 census on January 11th.

Clara was living in Beloit at the time of her father’s death. Cora had Clara’s 1953 address as 202½ Short Street in Beloit.

The vocalists at Clara’s funeral were her nieces Martha Nundahl, Norma Nundahl, and Marlene Nundahl Thoftne.

Cora mentions going “to Nellie’s party” on November 2, 1944. On March 22, 1945, Cora was “over to Nellie’s for luncheon.” On November 5, 1945, Bess and Cora were “to Nellie’s party.” On November 14, 1945, Cora “rode with Nellie” to Id’s luncheon. On February 7, 1946, Cora met Nellie downtown. On April 25, 1946, Cora was “over to Nellie’s” in the afternoon. Oscar and Nellie, with Id, visited Cora and Maurice on May 5, 1946 (probably to celebrate Oscar and Nellie’s 2nd wedding anniversary). On June 26, 1946, Cora was “over to Nellie’s” in the afternoon. On January 16, 1947, Cora was to a luncheon at Nellie’s. That is the last she is mentioned in Cora’s diary. Nellie is not mentioned when Id, Bess, and Oscar visited Cora and Maurice in Bloomington on August 3, 1948. She is mentioned again in the diary entry for July 27, 1957, when Cora visited Id and “also Mrs. Chalmon.”

The 1947 St. Cloud city directory lists a Mrs. Nellie Carlson residing at 701 McKinley Pl.

She is not the person in Minnesota death certificate 1948-MN-021480.

The 1905 Minnesota state census has an Ernest and Nellie Challman living in Minneapolis with their children Wiilard, 3, and Mildred, 5 months. Ernest and Nellie were both born in Sweden: Ernest in about 1870 and Nellie in about 1876. Ernest was a blacksmith.

In the 1910 census, as Chellman, the family lived at 2549 33rd Avenue in south Minneapolis. They had been married for 10 years and Nellie had had only the two children. Earnest had come to the U.S. in 1872, Nellie in 1894. Earnest was a blacksmith in a blacksmith shop.

In the 1920 census, as Challman, the family lived at 3815 Columbus Avenue in south Minneapolis in a house that they owned. Earnest now is shown as having come to the U.S. in 1890. He is still a blacksmith in a blacksmith shop, apparently his own business. His son Willard, 18, is a bookkeeper in a blacksmith shop.

In the 1930 census, both the kids have moved out and it’s just Nellie S., 52, and Ernest, 60, living at their house at 3815 Columbus Avenue. That house is evaluated as worth $7000. Ernest is shown as having come to the U.S. in 1890, Nellie in 1891. Ernest still has his blacksmith shop.

In the 1940 census, a Nellie Challman, a 64 year-old widow, lived at 3815 Columbus Avenue in Minneapolis in a house that she owned and that she lived in in 1935. She had no occupation but had two lodgers living with her.

Nellie S. Challman, b. 4 Nov 1875, died in Hennepin County on 11 May 1964. Her mother’s maiden name was Gustafson. Her son Willard E. Challman, b. 24 Jun 1901, died in Hennepin County on 19 Jun 1961. His mother’s maiden name was Peterson.

She is listed as Nellie Challman in the 1932, 1934, 1935, 1936, 1937, 1940, 1944, 1948, and 1958 city directories:

1940 Nellie S (wid Ernest) 3815 Columbus

1944 Nellie S (wid Ernest) 2503 Portland Avenue

1948 Nellie S (wid Ernest) sec-treas Challman & Co Inc 1904 14th Ave S

In the 1950 census, as Nellie S Challman, she is a 74 year-old widow lodging with Lilly Marshall in an apartment at 1704 Park Avenue in south Minneapolis.

1958 Nellie S (wid Ernest) sec-treas Challman & Company 3428 16th Ave S

She is not listed as Nelle Challman in the 1946 city directory. In that directory she is listed as Nellie S, wife of Carl O Carlson, 4346 40th Ave. S.

Her obit was in the Minneapolis Star on May 13, 1964. She was “formerly of 3428 16th Ave. S.” and died in a rest home. Burial was to be at Crystal Lake. Lived most of her life in Minneapolis and was a member of the Minnehaha Chapter 37 of the Eastern Star. Survivors include a daughter, Mrs. Robert Mead of Arlington, Va., a sister, Mrs. Anton H. Anderson, Seattle, two grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

The seemingly authoritative Rude Family Tree on Ancestry, run by Cortney Wall, calls her Petronella Sophia Peterson, 1875-1964. Her parents were Peter Bengston and Anna Lisa Bengstdotter. Peter and Anna Lisa both died in Sweden, Peter in the year Petronella Sophie was born. Cortney Wall is a great-great-granddaughter of Petronella and Ernest Challman. Her Rude Family Tree does not mention Petronella Sophia’s marriage to Oscar Carlson.
