  Notes	Most likely, and assumed here, he was born Helge Evenssen in Vang. He was called Helge Evensson Höverstad when he left Vang for the U.S. in March of 1862 at age 19. His death certificate, for which the informant was his son-in-law, shows his father’s name as Helge Holen Hoverstad. He was a farmer in Wang Twp, Renville County, in the 1880, 1885, 1895, and 1900 censuses. In the 1910 census, he is retired with “own income” and is, apparently, letting his daughter and son-in-law run the farm. In the 1895 census, he claimed to have been in Minnesota for 34 years, 24 of which were in the present enumeration district. In the 1900 census, he came to the U.S. in 1862. Helge died of stomach cancer.
