Notes:

He is the “Andrew Ellestad” who Rose refers to in her interview with Evey in the early 1970s. Andrew went to South Dakota with Erick Thompson and Tom Thompson in the mid 1880s. Later Andrew went to Clarissa and was probably the reason that Erick Thompson and family moved to Clarissa.

Rose maintained that her uncle Tom Thompson and Tom’s wife Rangdi Ellestad (Andrew Ellestad’s sister) were 2nd cousins. _That_ implies that either Anne Endrisdatter Baggethun or Ole Vilhelmsen Ellestad were first cousins of Andrew Thompson or Rangdi Kvale. None of that is true.

He is the 69 year-old Endrew Ellestad, husband of Sigrid, father of Evelyn and Clara, living in Clarissa, Todd County, Minnesota, in the 1930 census. He was born in Norway and came to the U.S. in 1882. Endrew was a dairy farmer.

He is the 58 year-old E. O. Ellestad, a carpenter in the village of Clarissa in the 1920 census. He came to the U.S. in 1885.

In the 1910 census, he is a widower in Todd County. His three children are liing with him.

In the 1900 census, he is probably Andrew Ellested living in Ward Twp, Todd County, born Mar 1861 in Norway. He is the husband of Ingebor and the father of Stella, John, and Cora. He came to the U.S. in 1883.

In the 1895 state census, he is living in Eureka Twp, Dakota County. The household consists of Andrew, 33, Ingebor M., 25, Estella, 4, John O., 2, and Cora, 6 months.

The informant for his death certificate was William Duda of Clarissa. (The Dudas lived one farm away from Endre and Ole in the 1910 census. William was 14 years old.) Endre had been in the U.S. for 38 years.

Endre died of stomach cancer.

Endre Olsen was confirmed in Vestre Slidre on 18 Jun 1876. The entry in church book says he was born on 14 Mar 1861, baptized on 28 Jul and there are some other notations that I don’t understand. His farm name is Bagetun Vang Ellestad and his parents were Ole Vilhelmson and Anne Endresdatter.

Sponsors for his baptism were Randi Wilhelmsdatter Lund, Gunhild Andersdatter Ellingboe, Sigrid Jørgensdatter Ellingboe, Endre Johnson Bagethun, and John Endressen Bagethun.

The 42 year-old widower Endre Olsen Ellestad of Clarissa, Minnesota, entered the U.S. at New York aboard the S.S. Celtic on 25 April 1903 following a ten-day voyage from Liverpool. He was still a citizen of Norway. Traveling with him was his brother Ole and their nephew, 22 year-old Ole Knudsen Ellestad of Vestre Slidre.

Endre married Ingeborg Marie MOSCOWS about 1890. Ingeborg was born on 21 Aug 1870 in Minnesota; died on 23 Nov 1900; was buried in Bethel Cemetery, Browerville, Todd County, Minnesota. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

He lived next door to Endre in the censuses.

Single and living in Ward Twp, Todd County, in the 1900 census. He was born in January of 1864.

The 39 year-old single farmer Ole Olsen Ellestad, a U.S. citizen of Clarissa, Minnesota, entered the U.S. at New York aboard the S.S. Celtic on April 25, 1903, following a 10-day voyage from Liverpool. Traveling with him was his brother Endre and their nephew, 22 year-old Ole Knudsen Ellestad of Vestre Slidre.

Married to Guro and living in Todd County in the 1910 census. He is 44 in that census.

In the Valdris book, the 1920 history and “manual” of the Valdris samband, Ole Ellestad of Browerville is listed as a then-current member and had been a member since 1916.

In the 1920 census, he, 55, and Guro, 46, live in a rented apartment at 419 Bancroft Avenue in Fergus Falls. Ole is a carpenter for a contractor.

Guro was the informant for his death certificate. His residence when he died was Clarissa. He died from heart disease. His parents were Anders Ellestad and Anna Baggethun.

According to the Vestre Slidre church book, he was the son of Ole Vilhelmson and Anne Eivindsdatter (her last name is very hard to read). That Ole seems to have been born on the 20th of January and baptized on the 5th of May.

Her birth record in the Vang church book shows her parents as Ole Wilhelmson Veblen and Anne Endrisdatter. Her baptism sponsors were Marthe Evensdatter Weblen, Anne Andersdatter Törstad, Ingrid Somebody’s datter Qvale, Knud Somebody’s son Veblen, and Thron Törstad.

Came to this country in 1884. Came to this country in 1887 according to the 1900 census.

Her 1888 marriage to Thomas A Thompson was witnessed by E.O. Ellestad (the bride’s brother) and Miss Karoline Martinson of the village of Frederick in Brown County.

In the 1900 census, she had had 8 children, 5 still living. In the 1910 census, she is shown as having had 10 children, 7 still living.

Place of birth, date of birth, and mother’s maiden name were not included in her death certificate.

Burial record or gravestone shows 1868 as the year of birth.

The informant for her death certificate was Ingmur Thompson of Farmington. Randi’s residence was Webster. No parents’ names on her death certificate.

Evey believed that Randi and Thomas were first cousins. Rose claimed that the pair were 2nd cousins and that Rangdi was “Andrew Ellestad’s sister.” This genealogy shows they were 5th cousins so there is a disagreement here.

dwfrench1 agrees with the lineage shown here.

Notes:

He should have been the heir to Skøre. Instead, 34/1 went to Bøye, the next surviving son.

Brad’s notes, regarding conversations he had with relatives in Norway, refers to Ole as “Ole Ellingboe in the Cities.” Ole was a frequent visitor to the Ole and Albert Ellingboe farms in Lakeville. These visits may have been accompanied by visits to Selma Nelson, a neighbor of the Ellingboes and a sister of “Ole the plumber”’s first wife.

He may be the 22 year-old Ole O Ellingboe who arrived in New York and passed through Ellis Island.

In the 1901 Minneapolis city directory, Ole is living with Jøger at 1425 East Franklin.

He was a plumber for Conner Brothers of 711 6th Avenue North in Minneapolis. He gave as his nearest relative Mary Bekken, sister, 6058 17th Street in Minneapolis. Ole was of medium height and build with blue eyes and reddish brown hair.

In the 1918 Alien Registration, he was Ole Ellingbo, age 38, of Minneapolis.

He is listed in “The Valdris Book”, a history of the Valdris Samband published in 1920 (available on Google Books), as “Ole Ellingboe Minneapolis.” He was a member of the Samband from 1902 to 1916.

In the 1919 city directory, he is a plumber and boards at 4428 44th Avenue S.

In the 1920 census, Ole, a widower, is living with the Henry Hanson family of 4428 44th Avenue S. in Minneapolis. He is shown as “nephew” along with his 13 year-old son Oscar who is also living with the Hansons. Ole was born in Norway and came to the U.S. in 1901. Ole is a plumber.

Ole, of 4428 44th Avenue in Minneapolis, was listed as the nearest relative of Harry Olson Ellingboe on Harry’s draft registration.

Seemingly related here is Bertha Ellingboe, b. ca 1896, in Norway, a tailoress, who lives with Conrad and Mary Hanson of 4420 43rd Avenue S. in Minneapolis. Conrad Hanson and Henry Hanson both work at a bag factory. (That Bertha is, apparently, #10692, the daughter of Anders Tollefson and Ingeborg Olsdatter.)

In the 1924 Minneapolis city directory, he is Ole Ellingboe, helper, residing at 923 Chicago Avenue, flat 1.

In the 1927 Minneapolis city directory, he is Ole Ellingboe, plumber, residing at 929 Chicago Avenue, apartment 1.

He is the Ole Ellingboe, age 69, arriving in New York on September 20, 1948, aboard the S.S. Stockholm which had departed from Gothenburg, Sweden, on September 11th. Ole’s address is shown as 3209 20th Avenue South in Minneapolis. His U.S. passport was #159040.

He died leaving a widow Bertha who was the informant for his death certificate. According to that death certificate, Ole was a plumber/steam fitter for the Minneapolis Gas Company. His death date was qualified by “found” so he may have died at his residence, 3209 20th Avenue South, and Bertha may not have been living with him. His cause of death was coronary disease.

In the 1916 Minneapolis city directory, he is Harry Ellingboe, a baker for Excelsior Baking Co., residing at the Hansons’ home (Harry’s aunt) at 4428 44th Avenue S. Also living at that same address was Ollie Ellingboe, a machinist at Excelsior Baking Co., who may be Harry’s brother Tollef (Tollie?). Listed elsewhere in the 1916 directory is Ole Ellingboe, the plumber (#6236), another of Harry’s brothers, who will eventually also come to live with the Hansons by the time of the 1920 census.

Harry registered for the draft on September 12, 1918, in Grand Rapids. He was born in Norway apparently. He listed his nearest relative as Ole Ellingboe (see #6236). Harry was a crane operator and electrician with the Olson (or Oliver) Iron Mining Company of Coleraine, Itasca County. Harry was described as of medium height and build with blue eyes and dark hair.

In the 1920 census, Harry (as “Illenbo”) is a lodger with the Gullick and Mary Bakken (his sister) family at 757 8th Avenue South in Minneapolis. Harry came to the U.S. in 1916 and is a bookkeeper at a bank.

In the 1920 Minneapolis city directory, he is Harry Ellingboe, bookkeeper for the Harriet State Bank. He rooms at 757 8th Avenue S.

In the 1920 directory, he is still bookkeeper for the Harriet State Bank. He lives at 615 S 9th.

In the 1923 St. Paul city directory, he is a bookkeeper for Bannon’s. He lives at 229 Spruce.

In the 1924 St. Paul directory, he is still a bookkeeper for Bannon’s Dept. Store. He lives at 198 E 10th.

In the 1930 census, Harry is a baker in Minneapolis. He is a boarder with the Reuben Ericson family. He came to the U.S. in 1916.

In the 1930 Minneapolis city directory, he is Harry O Ellingboe, a helper at Paramount Pies Inc. He resides at 718 E 17th. That is, indeed, the address for Reuben R and Mabel Ericson. Reuben is a plumber for Bjorkman Bros.

He is included in the 1931 and 1932 St. Paul city directories as a helper for Paramount Pies Inc. He resides in Minneapolis.

In the 1932 Minneapolis city directory, he is a cook residing at 718 E 17th Street.

The 1933 St. Paul city directory lists him as a cook for Paramount Pies Inc. He resides in Minneapolis.

In the 1935 St. Paul city directory lists him as a fruit cook for Paramount Pies. He resides in Minneapolis.

In the 1937 Duluth city directory, he is a cleaner for N D Bort. He resides at 16 W 2nd.

In the 1940 census, he lived in Minneapolis as Harry Ellingboe, a 42 year-old single man born in Norway and having had two years of high school. He had lived in Duluth five years earlier. His occupation was bakers helper in a restaurant. He had earned $135 in 1939.

He registered for the draft on 14 Feb 1942 in Minneapolis. He worked for George Lundeen of Dassel, Minnesota.

In the 1948 Minneapolis city directory, he was Harry O Ellingboe, a factory worker for Bemis. He resided at 104 Washington Avenue S.

He may have been married to #10778 although his death certificate says that he never married. (The Vang bygdebok says that he was married.)

The informant for his death certificate was Mrs. Alice Schmitz of 4946 Sherman in Minneapolis. Harry was not a veteran. He died of pulmonary edema and pneumonia. He worked at Bemus Brothers. His usual residence at the time of death was Cook Home of Rice Lake Road, Duluth, which wouldn’t seem to be the address of St. Mary’s Hospital. The SSDI says last residence was Minneapolis.

His obituary was published on p. 11A:1 of the September 14, 1977, edition of the Duluth News-Tribune:

Harry O. Ellingboe, 80, Cook Home, died Sunday in a Duluth hospital. He was born in Norway and came to Duluth in 1962 from Minneapolis. He was a retired laborer. Surviving is a niece, Alice Schmitz, Minneapolis.
