He farmed Bøkko from 1830-1840 with the help of his son Jon, who was the owner from 1830 (age 15) and who took over farming in 1840, giving them a pension that consisted of 2 barrels of barley, 2 cows, 1 heifer, 4 goats and sheep, the southern most storehouse, the use of a 1 mål parcel of land on North Klokkarhaug, lower part, with right to cultivate 1 mål of it, and the pasture land Neståkerreina. Jon's whole family emigrated in the spring of 1850. Trond Ø. Bø Ellingbø emigrated to Minnesota in 1853. Trond Ivarsson Uvdal took over Bøkko 1850, but emigrated to America in the spring of 1862. Øystein and his wife moved back to N. Bø in ca. 1865. The farm was divided into three subfarms, two under Bagetun and one under Nordigarden Ellingbø. In 1867 and 1868 (when Trond Øysteinsson returned to Vang) the farm was divided into four parts (See Vang A, p. 582), the main part being Bøkko (#33/3). Trond Ivarsson sold Bøkko to Knut Ivarsson Eltun for 500 spd. on 25 April 1868. It is said that it was Embrik and Helge Ellingbø who bought Bøkko from Trond and sold a half part to Knut, and that Jon Endresson and Torstein (son of Helge) took over each of the remaining half parts.

See pp. 479 and 580 Vang A.

According to Jim, Jon was from N. Bø; his mother was from Ellingbø (Bøkko). On 1 March 1830, when Jon was 15, his grandfather Andris (presumably, Jim means Jon’s grandfather Jon Andrisson) sold him Bøkko for 600 spd. with the provision that Andris could farm it as long as he was able. Andris died 16 days later. Jon's father farmed it for him for about 10 years until Jon took over and his father become a pensioner on the farm. Jon also gave a pension to Ivar Helgesson and his wife. See pp. 580-581 Ref. 1 for information to 1850. Some post-emigration information provided by John W. Ellingboe, Lloyd W. Ellingboe, William L. Ellingboe. Other information from census records, obituaries, etc. See photographs of cabinet painted with names of Jon and his wife.

An article in the Wisconsin State Journal, 6 Sep 1902, says that he came to the U.S. “over 50 years ago, settled two-and-a-half miles east of Stoughton, lived there 19 years, then went to Minnesota. He returned to Dane County 8 years ago last December and since that time has been living with a granddaughter, Mrs. Knud Soine, near McFarland.” … “He was the father of Mrs. J. O. Cold and Matt Ellingbo, of Stoughton. There are three other sons: John Ellingbo of Northfield, Minnesota, Andrew O. and Austin Ellingbo, of Milton, North Dakota, and four dead children (one son and three daughters), two of whom are buried here.”

The article goes on to say: “Mr. Ellingbo landed here following the period of hostilities between Black Hawk and the whites and years before the red men had wholly vanished. He was one of those brave farmers who transformed the woods and the prairies into beautiful homesteads, before the days of the telegraph and railroad.”

One day, after threshing with other farmers, he told the others to go home while he took a nap in the hay stack. As the men were leaving, they looked back to see smoke from the hay stack and rushed back to find Øystein with his head badly beaten. They brought him home and summoned a doctor who stayed the night, but towards morning Øystein died. The men saw a man running away from the burning hay stack, but they could not see who he was. According to Bella, the family knew who had killed Øystein but they never revealed his name because the killer's family were good people.

Also called Mathew Ostensen.

In the 1900 census, he was Mathew Ellingboe, a house painter living in Stoughton with his wife Maggie and their daughter Minnie. They also housed three boarders.

On August 14, 1903, he attempted to beat his wife to death and then kill himself by hanging. As the headline to the story in the State Journal says, he failed at both. The article says that he was jealous of his wife and had been drinking heavily recently although witnesses said he was not drunk when he tried to murder his wife. The article also said that he “has a wife and one child, a married daughter, and the family conducts a boarding house on the corner of Fourth and Main Streets in Stoughton.

He called himself, and signed himself, “M.A. Ellingbo” in documents related to his first wife’s estate.

In the 1910 census, he was Matthew M Ellingbo, a house painter living in Stoughton with his second wife Anna. They also have six lodgers.

Seems to be referred to as Nels Ellingbo in a few brief articles in the Janesville Daily Gazette in 1917.

An article in the April 22, 1922, edition of the Capital Times notes that communication with Northfield had been received of the death of Matt’s brother John. The article mentions a sister of Matt and John, Mrs. Jens Cold, also of Stoughton.

In the 1930 census, he and Andrina were living in Stoughton. Matt was a carpenter.

Matt Ellingbo inherited $6,000 from the estate of his wife Andrena, an extraordinary sum in 1934. Also named in her will: $50 to the Martin Luther Orphan’s home, $50 to the United Lutheran Church for mission work in China, and $100 each to Mrs. Emma Eggum, Chicago, Emma Iverson, Dunkirk, and Josie Ruer, Stoughton.

Attending his funeral were his niece and nephew, Bertha Ellingboe Gunderson and John Ellingboe of Northfield. An obit in the Capital Times says that he was the last survivor of “the family of Johan and Margaret Ellingbo, Stoughton pioneers of covered wagon days.”
