  Notes	Went by Gilbert Nilsen Haugen in the U.S. That’s what he’s called in the Jasmann Family Tree. Obit information from Find A Grave and Dennis C. Olson: Gilbert Haugen, the son of Gilbert G. Haugen (from death certificate) and Anna Thasa Haugen, was born in Norway, May 21, 1849 (from death certificate) and came at a very young age with his parents to America. He married Ingeborg Isabel Estrem at Decorah, Iowa, on December 30, 1878. The names appearing on the church records for that marriage were Gilbert Nelson and Isabel Anderson. Shortly after their marriage they moved to Boone County, Nebraska, where seven of their nine children were born. One baby died and was buried on the prairie and also a son Gustav Martinus died. During the time they lived in Nebraska they used the name Nilsen or Nelson. It is not known exactly when the family moved to Lawrenceburg, Tennessee, area but they were living there at least from 1893 to the middle of 1895. Their youngest son Knute was born while they made their home there. After his death Ingeborg stayed on the farm and made her home with her son Talmer. Sometime during the late 1890's the family moved to Minnesota and in 1898 settled in Webster township of Rice County, Minnesota. It was apparently during this time that they began to use the Haugen name. Gilbert died November 19, 1915 in Webster township, Rice County, Minnesota from heart problems. He leaves to mourn his death six children, namely, Talmar Haugen at home, Gust Haugen on a neighboring farm, Knute Haugen, Northfield, Mrs. Paul Overby, Binford, N.D., Mrs. Albert Thorpe, Minneapolis. Two brothers-in-law, Christ Estrem, Petersburg, Neb., Andrew Estrem, Decorah, Iowa, and several grandchildren. Preceding him in death were; an infant buried on the farm in Nebraska; Gustav Martinus born December 16, 1879, died March 5, 1893 buried at Closter, Nebraska; and Albert born November 9, 1885, died July 28, 1908 buried at Binford, North Dakota.
