Engwald was first married when he was 22; Harriet was first married at age 18.

In the 1930 census, he was the 18 year-old step-son of Christensen A and Magda Anderson of Fresno, California.

He, or (less likely) the Edmund of #10775, is the subject of this newspaper article from the Saturday, September 4, 1937, edition of the Brainerd Daily Dispatch:

“Edmund Ellingboe, of South Minneapolis, driver of one of the cars involved in a highway crash which yesterday resulted in the death of Theodore Berg, 23, of Brainerd, today faces a charge of “criminal negligence in the operation of vehicle resulting in the death of a human being.” The warrant was issued yesterday from the office of County Attorney F E Ebner and was served upon Ellingboe at St. Joseph’s hospital.

“Hearing upon the charge will be delayed, possibly for several weeks, as Ellingboe is confined to the hospital with a compound fracture of the hip, an injury received in the crash which caused Berg’s death.

“Others injured in the accident were Ernest Rausch, of Brainerd, driver of the car in which Berg was riding and Carl Layman, of St. Paul, a passenger in Ellingboe’s car.”

According to another article, the head-on crash occurred on U.S. 371 about 3 miles south of Brainerd early Wednesday morning. Berg died of his injuries on Friday.

Edmund and Margaret lived at 2562 Lumni View Dr in Bellingham in 1982 and 1986 and at 7054 Old Guide Rd in Lynden, Washington, in 1989.
