    • According to her confirmation record, she was born on Lerfaldvald and was living on Bÿ.

      In the 1910 census, the family was living at 402 Douglas Avenue in Fergus Falls. The family consisted of Frederick, 38, Anna, 40, Edwin A., 6, and Olga M., 2. Also living with them was Martha Bye, “mother in law”, 65, a widow born in Norway, who had had 6 children, 3 still living. Frederick and Anna had been married for 9 years. Anna had had the two children. Frederick was a printer and had come to this country in 1891. There is no indication for when Anna or “Martha” came to this country. Fred owns the home, free of mortgage, and it is not a farm.

      In the 1920 census, the Torviks were living at 724 Court Street in Fergus Falls. The family consisted of Fred, 49, Anna, age illegible, Elwin, 16, Olga, 11 or 12, and Annie M. Bye, 75, a widow, mother-in-law. Annie and Anna appear to have come to this country in 1886; Fred in 1891. Fred is a traveling salesman for a woolen mill. Elwin is a delivery boy for a grocery store. Up the street from the Torviks, and on the same census page, lived John E. Bye (Johannes).

      In the 1930 census, the Torviks were at 715 Court Street. The household consisted of Fred, 58, a painter, Anna, 60, Olga M., 22, a school teacher, Anna “Ellingbye”, 85, grandmother, and Harriett Torvik, 7, grandchild.

      In the 1935/36 Fergus Falls city directory, she and Fred, a traveling salesman, lived at 715 Court Street with their son and daughter.
