Excerpt from The Wetaskiwin Times, April 23, 1931, page 1

A gloom was cast over the Wang district on Monday, April 13th, when it was learned that Mrs. Annie Kjos had passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Andrew Jevne. Mrs. Kjos was seventy-seven years of age, and came to the Wetaskiwin district in the pioneer days of 1900. She had lived a long and useful life, not only to her own family, but in aiding the sick and sorrowing of the community.

She leaves to mourn her loss, seven sons and four daughters, namely, Evan of New Britain, Connecticut; Thorwald and Albert of Vancouver; Iver, Oscar, Elmer and Thilmer; and Mrs. Alex Leum of Minneapolis, Mrs. Andrew Jevne, Mrs. E. Reimer, and Mrs. A. Bigland, thirteen grandchildren, and one great-grandson, also one sister in Minnesota. Her husband, Eric Kjos, predeceased her four years ago.

From the Inderøy bygdebøk:

... Den nye eigaren på garden var Ingebrigt Nilsson Vist - frå Vist, Inderøy, f. 1812, g.m. Elen Kristiansdatter Sundsnesset. Han fekk skjøte på garden i 1838 frå Johs. Estenson for 950 spdlr, skjøtet daget 20. april, tinglyst, 14. juni s. året. Då Ingebrigt tok imot garden, var der ikkje andre hus der enn eu høybu, og i den budde dei for det første. Dei sette garden fullt istand med hus, og er vel dei første som har bygd og budd der.

Ingbrigt og Elen hadde 7 born.

In the 1865 Norwegian census, he was Ingebrigt Nielsen, 54, selveier on Saxhaug vestre 49b in Saxhaug, Inderøen, Nord-Trøndelag. His wife Elen was 55, and their children living with them were Niels 25, Johannes, 21, Christine, 19, Elise, 16, and John, 12.

From the information on Olive Bye’s (#4068) death certificate we can deduce that he is the John Ingebrigtsen, age 12, living on the Saxhaug vestre farm in Saxhaug, Inderøen, in the 1865 census. He was born 20 October 1854 to Ingebrigt something Saxhaug and Elen Christiansdatter.

He is the Jon Saxhaug, age 27, who left Trondheim on 21 Sept 1881 aboard the feeder ship Tasso. His final destination was Alexandria, Minnesota. As John Saxhaug, he arrived in New York aboard the City of Paris on October 14, 1881. The Inderøy bygdebøk incorrectly has him emigrating in 1883.

Living in Fergus Falls in the 1885 census. Single.

In the 1895 census he’s a 36 year-old teamster in Fergus Falls. Living with them is 17 year-old Ida Rockstad of Wisconsin, a servant.

In the 1900 census he’s a teamster and was born in October of 1856 in Norway. He and Thea and their two children live at 503 Bancroft Avenue in Fergus Falls, almost next door to John and Gertie Bye. He came to the U.S. in 1880. Living with the family is 24 year-old Olava Saxhaug (#4068), niece, b. Nov 1874 in Norway and having come to the U.S. in 1896.

In the 1910 census he’s a janitor for a county operation. He and his family live in Fergus Falls. In that census, he has a 24 year-old niece named Mina Salburg (may be Saxhaug) living with the family. Mina came to the U.S. in 1895.

In the 1920 census, he and his family live in Fergus Falls. Both children are still living at home. John is a janitor in the county court house.

In the 1930 census, he and Thea still are in Fergus Falls at 126 Junius Avenue. John is a janitor in a church. Living next door, at 118 Junius, is Arthur Christenson, the adopted son of Samuel Christenson, Andrew Everson’s former business partner.

From the naming convention, he should have had an older brother Ole, perhaps with a different mother, who died after he was born.

Drowned in the sea off Norway while fishing. According to the entry in the parish register, entered at the end of 1858, he was 30 years old. It seems as if three others may also have died at sea with him. According to Magnar, he drowned in the Bremsnes Fjord.

He was also shown as 30 years old for his marriage entry in the parish register.

He was 16-3/4 years old when he was confirmed in August, 1840, in Qvernas and Bremsnes. This would suggest that he was born in late 1823. The confirmation record says that he was vaccinated on October 23, 1826. His father is Halvor Olsen and his mother may be Elin, maybe Christiansdatter.

His birth record confirms that his parents were Halvor Olsen Gustad and Christiana Iversdatter.

From the Northfield News, Jan. 25, 1938:

Funeral services were held at Vang church Thursday afternoon, Jan. 6, for Nels T. Haugen, who passed away Monday morning, Jan. 3, at Minneapolis after a few days' illness of pneumonia. The services were conducted by the pastor, the Rev. Adolph Egge, who preached the funeral sermon. During the services, Mrs. Gertrude Boe Overby of St. Olaf college, a niece of Mr. Haugen, sang two hymns, one in Norwegian and the other in English. There were many beautiful floral offerings, and several gifts in his memory from relatives and friends to missions and charity. The services were attended by a large number of people, who had come to pay their last respects to their departed friends. The Rev. V. E. Boe, a brother-in-law of the deceased, was present at the funeral and spoke briefly at the close of the services. The interment was made in Vang cemetery. The pallbearers were: John Ellingboe, Ole Hoiby, John M. Lie, Nels L. Nesheim, Anton Remmen and Ludvig Soine. Nels T. Haugen was born in Warsaw township December 20, 1862, a son of the late Thomas and Gertrude Haugen. He was baptized as a young child by the late Rev. B. J. Muus and confirmed in 1875 by the Rev. M. O. Boeckman of St. Paul who then was the pastor of Vang congregation. His boyhood days were spent attending the common and parochial schools of the neighborhood. In 1887 he was married to Miss Regina Brekke of Ottertail county, and there he and his wife were engaged in farming. Mrs. Haugen died in 1894. In 1900 the family moved to Minot, N. D. Shortly after his arrival at Minot, Mr. Haugen was employed for several years in the lumber yard of Tosten Kulaas, a former resident of Warsaw township. After several years' work in the lumber yard, he was appointed deputy sheriff of Ward county, N.D., which position he held for four years. In the year 1917 he was united in marriage to Miss Anna Eide at Minot, and they went to farming near Minot until 1922, when they moved to this community, where they were engaged in farming until last fall, when they took up their residence in Minneapolis. After coming back to his old home community, he was for several years the janitor in Vang church, a work which he performed in addition to taking care of his farm work. Mr. Haugen was a man whom it was always a pleasure to meet. He had a pleasant smile and kind word for everybody. He made a large number of friends in whatever community he made his home. He leaves a large number of relatives and friends in this community. Endowed with a keen mind and a wonderful memory, he could relate incidents and interesting historical data from the pioneer days of this neighborhood. He was a great lover of horses and could many years afterwards speak of the color and the names of the horses which the pioneers had in the early days of this settlement. If anyone in recent years desired any information about the early history of this community, they were always referred to Nels Haugen. After coming back to the neighborhood where he was born, spent his childhood days and grew to manhood, he again became a member of Vang congregation. Besides his wife Mr. Haugen is survived by one son, Thomas, of Warsaw township and one daughter, Mrs. Carl Estrem, of Minneapolis. He also leaves two brothers, Chris T. Haugen of Warsaw township and Thomas T. Haugen of Northfield, and three sisters, Mrs. Gertrude Ramsey of Harvey, N. D., Mrs. V. E. Boe of Finley, N. D., and Mrs. Carl Brekke of Ray, N. D.; fourteen grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
