Alvin O. Thompson Buried Here

Alvin O. Thompson, age 38, of Great Falls, died at a hospital in that city on last Thursday night following an extended illness. Mr. Thompson was born and raised in Chouteau county and resided here until about three years ago when he moved to Great Falls. He was well known and highly respected by all and his passing will be mourned by a large circle of friends.

He was born at Highwood on Oct. 3, 1903.

He leaves to mourn his death his mother, Mrs. Caroline Thompson, of Great Falls; three sisters, Mrs. Evelyn Christensen, Longview, Wash.; Mrs. Mae Beals, Portland, Ore.; and Mrs. Helen Weston, Great Falls; and two brothers, Charles W. Thompson, Highwood, and George Thompson, of Great Falls.

Funeral services were held in Great Falls on Monday morning and the body was brought to Fort Benton in the family plot. The relatives have the sympathy of the entire community in their bereavement.

From his page in Find A Grave, citing the Faribault Daily News, May 10, 1950:

Funeral services were conducted Saturday afternoon at Vang Lutheran church for Michael Flom, 68 year old farmer and maintenance worker on the county highway system. Mr. Flom died very suddenly Wednesday, May 3.

The Rev. L. A. Wogen, pastor of the Dennison Lutheran parish officiated at the service. Mrs. Wogen sang. Interment was at the Vang cemetery. The pallbearers were: Donald Flom, Minneaplis; Orlean Durdahl, Cannon Falls; Andrew Flom, and Lawrence Flom, Kenyon; Obert Eggum and Clarence Eggum of Dennison. All were nephews of the deceased.

Michael Flom was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Nels Flom of Holden township and was born September 2, 1881. He had spent his life in Holden and Warsaw townships.

He was married December 15, 1910, to Miss Caroline Eggum of Dennison.

He is survived by his wife; one daughter, Mrs. Herman Braaten (Marcia), two grandchildren and one brother, William Flom of Minneapolis. Mr. Flom was a member of the Vang congregation and had a host of friends in the community where he lived.

From information in the 1801 Norwegian census and in the record for Halvor’s marriage to Rebekka, we can deduce that, in that census, he is the 8 year-old Halvor Olsen, son of Ole Gunnersen, 42, and Maret Halvorsdatter, 36, one of five families living on the Havsaas farm in Romfoe, Sundal in Romdal. Halvor’s siblings were Gunner Olsen, 10, Sigri Olsdatter, 6, Anne Olsdatter, 3, and Ingri Olsdatter, 1.

Halvor and Rebekka were living with Erik and Ane at the time of the 1865 census. Halvor is shown as a “Føderaadsmand” which meant that he was receiving support after giving his estate to another. Erik is shown as the owner of the farm (Selveier). However, Halvor Olsen’s grandson, Halvor Iversen, seems to own the farm in the 1886 land register. See notes for Erik (#122) and Halvor (#119).

Magnar calls him Hallvar Olson Hafsås. Geni World Family Tree calls him “Halvor Olsen Sæter (born Hafsås).

From Jan: “John Quaid's father was actually William Quain not William Quaid. In Ireland the Quaid and Quain names are interchangable. But they are basically the same name-the original name was Quain. Just about every generation there was a Fitzgerald who married a Quain, so the families are very close and mixed up -- but all are descendants from the "White Knight".”

Also from Jan: “George says the family came from the Manister parish. He lives in Patrickswell. A few years ago I spoke to another Quaid cousin, Catherine O'Riodan, who said she owned the Crean property.”

In the 1895 Minnesota state census, the girls had left home but the three boys were still on the farm in Milo Twp, Mille Lacs County, Minnesota. John's occupation was painter. The family had been in Minnesota for 12 years, 6 months, and in Foreston for 4 years and 10 months.

In his granddaughter Mary Catherine’s birth record he is referred to as Gulielumus Quaid.

Wilhelm, 60 (b. January 1840), his wife Cate, 57 (b. January 1843), and their son Wilhelm, 22 (b. May 1878) were living in Foreston in the 1900 census. Wilhelm Sr. was a farmer. All three had been born in Ireland. Husband and wife had been married for 33 years. Cate had had 7 children, 5 still living. Wilhelm Sr. is shown as having come to the U.S. in 1885 but no similar date is shown for his wife or their son.

In the 1905 Minnesota state census, William and Kate were in Foreston along with their three sons and their families. The Quaids had been in the U.S. for 21 years and 6 months and had been in Foreston for 5 years and 6 months.

Living in Foreston village, Mille Lacs County, Minnesota, in the 1910 census. Came to the U. S. in 1889.

Still living in Foreston village in the 1920 census but he is now a widower.

Died of chronic myocarditis complicated by senility. Was living with his daughter Margaret and family at 710 Jackson Street in Minneapolis at the time of his death.

From Jan’s source in Sweden: You asked about the parents of Josefina Albertina but that is impossible to find. She was born in 1851 but in the birth record in Dagsås where she was born is she not. I found a Josefina Albertina in 1853 but that is not sure it's correct. In the census 1890 is she born in 1851.

Lundberg, Johan August
1852 Far
Rosengren, Albertina Josefina Wilhelmina 1851 Mor
(Barn), Karl Oskar 1873 Barn
(Barn), Karl Johan Herman 1876 Barn
(Barn), Laurentia 1879 Barn
(Barn), Mathilda Charlotta 1882 Barn"

So he did not leave Sweden at least until after 1890 census anyway.

From Jim Ellingboe’s notes: Steffan was not from Vang. He was a servant at Garstad and a soldier in the Igdun regiment. In Garstad, he met his wife, and they took over Brekken from her brother-in-law (Torstein Kristensen Hålien). He is also called Steffan T Garstad. Barbro and Steffen only had one daughter; Marit (1707-1757).

From Jim, Berit’s birth location is the Høre (Hurum) parish, a part of Vang i Valdres closer to Øystre Slidre.

From Kjøs?

Not to be confused with #11915.

Tom Williams, in his Williams-Stegall Family Tree, has him as the son of Mads Andersen Thune and Gunild Jonsdatter Ellingbøe Kvale. The bygdebok (Vang A, p. 635) suggests that that Mads Andrisson was the son of Andris Sjugurdsson Uvdal and Ingebjørg Ivarsdatter Tune. Tom Williams also shows that lineage so we’ll assume here that Tom WIlliams is correct.

from Kvåle "i Hauge"Farmed in 1680s; had 1 church cow 1689-1716.

Vang A, 1987, pp. 515, 584; Ey p. 395.

He is Torkjell Torsteinson Kvåle, I155, in Jim’s VS.

Jim’s notes:

Torkjell og Ingebjørg hadde i allefall 3 barn: Torstein, Knut og Eirik.

Torkjell pantet til seg 3 skinn i Hauge av nedre Kvåle 39/2 i 1679 fra Eivind og Ingebjørg, søsknene til den forige eieren, Thomas Rasmussen Kvåle (Haugen). Enken etter Thomas, Gunnhild Thomasdtr, stevnet den 12.7.1688 for dette på vegne av eldste sønnen Aslak, som hadde beste odels- og åseteretten til gården. Torkjell vedgikk at han hadde fått 30 rd av pantepengene av Aslak, som var umyndig i 1679, og Aslak ble tilkjent de 3 skinnne i gården som Torkjell hadde brukt en stund. Torkjell hadd e betalt alt for mye for pantet, 100 rd, og måtte søke om å få pengene igjen fra de som hadde fått dem. Torkjell bygslet da Gåsedelen, som tilhørte Vangskirken, av presten Ove Ovesen Steen (Wangensteen). Også her ble han tiltalt, denne gang av Tore Øysteinson Dal, fordi Tore mente at Torkjell hadde bygsla den plassen han leide med bygselsbrev av 4.1.1687. Vitnene, Bjørn Syndrol som var nær 90 år gammel, Andris Øldre som var 80 år og Sakarias Bø som var 70 år, fortalte at far til Tore Dal hadde ryddet og bygde plassen. De husket ikke når det var, med da Øysten tok plassen i bruk, var de t bare england og en liten låve der. Torkjell tapte denne saken ogs og Tore Dal ble tilkjent Gåsedelen, men av en eller annen grunn fortsatte Torkjell som bruker av gården, for i 1700 nevnes han som "gammel" bruker sammen med den 17 år gamle sønnen Torst ein. På Haugen 39/2 (under nedre Kvåle), ga Aslak gården videre til broren Mads i 1689. Føholm skriver: "Hausten 1692 fekk han halde rettssynfaring og reiste sak mot Torkjell Gåsedelen, fordi han ulovleg fekk hand om garden da Aslak var umyndig, og had de late garden "forderve ved vanrøkr" den lange tida han var brukar". Noen år før, i 1689 stevnet sokneprest Ove O Steen, Torkjell for ulovlig å ha skaffet seg bygselbrev av presten for " bismerpund smør i Gåsedelen. Denne saken må nok ha pågåt t en stund, for de ble først forlikte i 1692. Da skulle Torkjell avstå " bpd smør i Hauge til Aslak Tommasen Haugen, mot at Aslak og Mads ga opp søksmålet de hadde mot Torkjell. Torkjell skulle heller ikke kreve Mads for utlagt "rettighet" og en kirkeku ti l 3 rd, mot å være fri for "åbudsfall" av Hauge. Da Torkjell og Ingebjørg følte seg gamle og skrøpelige i 1704, avsto de bygselseddelen på Gåsedelen til sønnen Torstein 19.5.1704. Torkjell ble igjen stevnet på tinget 13.2.1705, denne gangen av Ola Dal, fordi han trass i forbud fra Ola hadde avst ått festet på Gåsedelen til sønnen, som ennå ikke hadde vært i kongens tjeneste. Men da de skulle møte på tinget året etter, meldte allmuen at Ola Dal var død.
