  Notes	Gertrude is also Cora's cousin but on her father's side. Arthur Hendrickson and Gertie had three children, according to Cora, before they divorced. (This ignores Joyce.) After Joyce’s institutionalization, Gertrude divorced Arthur and abandoned those three children (ages 2 to 6) to marry a much younger man and move to Duluth. Her daughter Barbara went to live with her father’s mother (Martha Hendrickson). Her son Arthur was taken to live with his Aunt Myrtle. Her two year-old daughter Patricia went to a foster home. Absent explanatory information, this abandonment seems unforgivable. Regardless, Art Jr. and Patsy were destroyed. She was Mrs. Robert (Gertrude) Marshall of Newport News, Virginia, at the time of her sister Marion’s death in 1968. She was Mrs. Robert Marshall of St. Cloud at the time of her brother Herbert’s death in 1975. She was Gertrude Marshall of Sauk Centre, Minnesota, at the time of her sister Doris’s death in 1989.

• Photos		Arthur and Gertrude Hendrickson wedding The sepia-toned rectangular original is mounted in a greyish-brown folder from Rosaas Studio - Duluth. On the back, in Cora's handwriting: "My Cousins Art Hendrickson groom Also my Cousins Marion & Gertie Anderson's and their friend." Arthur is about 19, Gertie about 17. If the woman on the right is Gertie's sister Marion, she would be about 22 or 23. The woman on the right looks older than that and may be Gertie's mother. In that case, the fellow on the left may be Ole Jr. How did they meet? Because Gertie's mother was a Nordrum (from LaCrosse), and there were also Nordrums in the Viroqua area, it is possible that matchmaker Martha was aware of Gertie, even apart from the connection through Cora and Cora's father.
