Gunhild’s first stop after she came to the U.S. in 1886 or 1887 was her uncle Abraham’s home in Granite Falls. According to Evey, Gunhild first worked for a sheriff and his family in Granite Falls, a job in which she had to cook and keep house for the family which included 13 children. Later she decided to go to Aberdeen, South Dakota, to work for her aunt who had a hotel. It was on that train trip to Aberdeen that Gunhild met Erik Thompson, her future husband.
Apparently that aunt was Marit’s sister Siri, judging by what Rose said of that aunt, as recounted by Evey, “She had a big family, that aunt. Ma (Gunhild) had a picture of two strappin’ nice young men, you know, with stove-pipe hats on. And their names were Erick and Edvard, I think. That aunt came to Minneapolis later. Well, anyway, they lived in Aberdeen….”

Gustaf Jacob is how it’s spelled in the födelsbok.
Or Gustave Jacob, the spelling used on his wedding invitation.
A 16 year-old Gustav Landström arrived at Ellis Island on 10 Oct 1881 on the Mosel.
Emigrated to the US from Sweden May 27, 1884, at the age of 18. EmiHamn shows him emigrating 5 Jun 1884, departing Malmö, destination New York. Emigranten Populär shows him leaving Göteborg, destination Duluth, on 8 Jun 1898. Gust was traveling with his sister Johanna. The pair are shown in the St. Albans border crossings as arriving at the port of Quebec on June 22nd aboard the S.S. Lake Superior which had left Liverpool on June 11th.
He apparently spent some time in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, after arriving in the U.S. in the 1880s.
He may be the August Landstrom, laborer, “boarding” at 537 Garfield Avenue in Duluth in that city’s 1890-91 city directory.
In the 1891-1892 Duluth city directory, he is Gustave Landstrum, bridgebuilder for F T Harrington, who boards at 707 Garfield Avenue.
In the 1892-1893 Duluth city directory, he is Gustav J Landstrom, laborer, who boards at 121 Park Avenue.
He is not listed in the 1893-1894 Duluth city directory.
In the 1894-1895 Duluth city directory, he is Gustav J Landstrom, car operator for the Duluth Steam Railway, who rooms at 2531 West 2nd.
He is not listed in the 1895-1896 Duluth city directory. There is, however, in the 1896 Superior city directory, a Gustav Landstrom, laborer, living at 1807 Butler. There is an Adolph Landstrom, carpenter, residing at the same address.
In the 1896-1897 and in the 1897-1898 Duluth city directories, he is Gustav Landstrom, car operator for the Duluth Steam Railway, who rooms at 2609 Huron.
In the 1898-1899 Duluth city directory, he may be the Gustaf Landstrom, laborer, boarding at 2018 West 4th. That is the last Duluth city directory in which he is listed.
Settled in Crow Wing County in 1897. The 1900 census shows Gust as having a mortgage on his land in 1900 but the 1910 census shows that the land is owned free and clear.
“In recounting the early settlers of Deerwood Township, one must also remember G.J. Landstrom and A. Johnson. They purchased railroad land in section 35 on Shirt Lake where they helped each other build log homes and barns. In the 1890s, they returned to Sweden to bring their families to the new land. Mr. Landstrom’s son, Carl, recalled helping his father clear the land of stumps, which were mixed hardwoods with some pine. The Landstrom family farm at one time had one of the highest testing dairy herds [the milk testing high in butterfat content] in Crow Wing County, although their place became known as Landstrom's Berry Farm.”
The Landstrom land consisted apparently of 120 acres of the NW corner (all but the SW corner of the NW corner) of Section 34 on the west end of Shirt Lake in Deerwood township. (The 1913 Crow Wing County plat book says the Landstrom property was in Section 35.)
“The Landstroms were members of the Swedish Baptist Church organized June 1, 1884. In November of 1903, one acre of ground on the south shore of Hamlet Lake was donated by John Heglund and a church was built on this lovely site overlooking the lake. This Hamlet Lake Baptist Church was used for 45 years by the congregation.”
Minnesota death certificate #1928-MN-003223 issued in Crow Wing County for LANDSTROM, GUST JACOB for death date 10/28/1928.
Obituary from the Crosby Courier:
Gust J. Landstrom Passes Away Sunday
Gust J. Landstrom of Deerwood township, passed away at his home on Shirt Lake Sunday, Oct. 28 after suffering from a heart ailment for several months.
Mr. Landstrom was born in Normaldling, Vesterbatten, Sweden, on Oct. 10, 1865. At the age of seventeen years, he came to America, settling in Minnesota near Duluth. In 1898 he came to Deerwood, buying his farmstead at Shirt Lake.
He is survived by his wife, Clara Landstrom, two daughters, Naomi and Mabel, and a son, Carl. One daughter, Helga, passed away in March, 1927.
The funeral services were held on Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 31 at 1:00 p.m. from the home and 2:00 p.m. from the Hamlet Lake Baptist church. He is deeply mourned by his family, relatives, and friends.
In the 1900 census, “Gustaf” is 34 (born Sept 1865) shown as living with his 33 year-old sister "Johanna" (born Feb 1867). This must be Katrina Johanna whom we know came over to the US in 1898 (as is confirmed on the census form). She is indicated as having an occupation but the handwriting of the census-taker is illegible. It may be "housekeeper." She is shown as being able to read and write but not able to speak English. Gust emigrated in 1884, Johanna in 1898.
In the 1905 state census, he (as August), 40, and Clara, 26, are carefully entered, and indexed, as Landström. He had been in Minnesota for 17 years and 8 months and in the present enumeration district for 7 years and 1 month. She had been in Minnesota for 3 years and 2 months and in the present enumeration district for 3 years.
In the 1910 census, Gust and Clara are indicated as having been married 6 years at the time of the census-taker's visit on May 2, 3, or 4. This would indicate that they were married between June of 1903 and May of 1904. They immigrated in 1884 and 1902, respectively. Clara's occupation is indicated as "Farm Laborer."
In the May 30, 1912, edition of the Duluth News-Tribune, is an article describing the formation of The Hamlet and Shirt Lake Telephone Company. The officers are Alfred Johnson, president, Alfred W. Heglund, vice-president, F. V. Berglund, secretary, and Gust J. Landstrom, treasurer.
The Landstroms in the 1920 census:
Landstrom, Gustav J., owns property, no mortgage, age 54. Year of immigration looks like 1884. Year of naturalization is illegible. Occupation is farmer, general.
Clara, age 41, year of immigration 1902. Year of naturalization is illegible.
Helga, age 14, attended school.
Nomie J., age 13, attended school.
Mable A., age 10, attended school.
Carl S., age 8, attended school.
The 1930 Census was taken about April 2nd by Arthur Mattson. By this time, Gust had died.
Clara, head, owner, radio set in the household, age 52, widowed, married at age 27. Emigrated in 1902; a naturalized citizen. Occupation is farmer on farm.
Naomi J., daughter, age 23, single {!}. Occupation is teacher in rural school.
Carl E., son, age 18, single. Occupation is laborer on farm.
He died of chronic endocarditis and myocarditis which he had had for 2 years. A complicating factor was senility. His doctor was Baxter A Smith of Crosby. The informant for his death certificate was his wife Clara who didn’t know Gustaf’s mother’s name and thought that Gustaf’s father was named Ole Landstrom. | LANDSTRÖM, Gustaf Jakob (I57)
