Notes |
- Born in Berget, Berghem Sodregård.
The Anbytartforum entry for her indicates that her birth year was 1879. So does the Kånna 1877-1881 Household Examination (p.20).
Britta, Tilda, and baby Emma arrived in New York from Liverpool on October 14, 1881, on the City of Paris.
She and her husband and children were living at 709 Jackson Street in Minneapolis at the time of the 1900 census. Annie had had two children, both still living (Mary Katherine and Margaret Julia).
In the 1905 Minnesota state census, the family was living with the rest of the Quaids in Foreston. John was a painter, had been in Minnesota for 21-and-a-half years and had been in Foreston for 5-and-a-half years. That may be incorrect: Josephine and the three girls had been in Foreston for only 3 years and 9 months.
In the 1910 census, the family was living on a farm that they owned with mortgage in Milaca Township. The family consisted of John J., 40, Annie R., 38, Mary K., 13, Margaret J., 10, and Annie J., 7. Annie is shown as having had 6 children, only the still living. (On the day the census-taker appeared at their farm, Annie would have been 8 months pregnant and two weeks away from giving birth to her 7th child.) Not too far was the farm of her father and his 2nd wife.
Lived in Naicam, Saskatchewan. In a Naicam history, Claudia Ponath contributed this on the Quaids:
“Mr. and Mrs. John J. Quaid and family came by train to Watson from Foreston, Minnesota, U.S.A., homesteading in the Byng District in approximately 1910. A year later, Mrs. Quaid’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charley Lundberg, settled on the same quarter with them. Mr. Quaid was one of the first Municipal Councillors and was one of the first who initiative to build a school so was elected to the school board the first year. Their family consisted of three daughters and one son - Mary, Margaret, Josephine, and Francis.”
Could not find the Quaids in the 1911 Canadian census.
Roy lists her birth location as Bergham Sodregard Berget, Sweden.
Terry says: “Incidentally, the Quaid house was the original town jail in Naicam. Very few people know that little fact. I was told by a previous owner that the walls are about two feet thick as he had tried to drill through it for some reason.”
Her obituary:
Mrs. J. J. Quaid Laid to Rest
The death of Mrs. J. J. Quaid occurred at her home early Monday morning, February 3rd. Mrs. Quaid had been in ill health for some time but on Sunday suddenly took a turn for the worse and quietly passed away in the early hours of Monday morning. The many friends are comforted in the thought that the family was at her bedside when the end came.
Mrs. Quaid was 57 years old and was born in Sweden. She immigrated to the United States and later married J. J. Quaid. They came to Canada 23 years ago and settled on a homestead in the Byng district west of Naicam. She is survived by her husband, three daughters, and one son, Mrs. R. (Dick) Sharp, Mrs. Paul Jestin, Mrs. Fred Jestin, all of Byng district and Francis at home.
The funeral service was held at the home by Rev. Fr. Chrysostom. Burial took place in the municipal cemetery.
Pall bearers were Messrs. Fred Jestin, Paul Jestin, Dick Sharp, and Francis Quaid.

 | Ida Deiters with the Lundbergs in Canada Taken in Saskatchewan in the early 1920s when Ida Deiters visited her Canadian cousins. Ida is 2nd from the right and we don't know who the dark-haired young woman on the far right is. The others, from the left, are Nannie Lundberg Quaid, about 44; Hannah Lundberg, about 68; Charley Lundberg, about 72; and Belle Jestin, about 27.
This photograph was processed by Osborn's of Dickinson, North Dakota, which is where Ida and Gus were living at the time. |
 | Ida Deiters and the Lundbergs in Naicam, Sakatchewan, Canada Probably taken by Id during one of her visits to Saskatchewan. The print was processed by Osborn's Daily Film Service in Dickinson, North Dakota. The woman on the left is Nannie Lundberg Quaid. The older couple in the middle is Charley Lundberg and his second wife Hanna. The woman in the background between the two is probably Belle Jestin. The four people on the right in this picture have not yet been identified. |
