    Notes:

    There are two opinions on who her parents were, both expressed in the Vang A bygdebok:

    1) Jim’s VS calls her Ingrid Vilhjølmsdtr Ellingbø (1758-1780) and says that her parents were Vilhjølm Andrisson Baggetun (1720-1787) and Guri Torleivsdatter Møsåker (1728-1763). This is consistent with p. 594 of the bygdebok. THIS ALTERNATIVE IS SHOWN AS 22167 AND 22168 AND INCLUDES HER DAUGHTER GURI SIMENSDATTER.

    Jim’s notes on her in VS: Frøholm har to sett foreldre på henne, men det mest sansynlige er at dette er de riktige foreldrene. Men han har ført henne opp som datter til Vilhjølm Jonsen Baggetun og Velgjerd Jonsdtr Ellingbø også (se Frøhom side 611) I Kirkeboka står det at hun bodde på Baggetun da hun døde.

    2) As suggested in the notes above, the Vang A bygdebok also says, on p. 611, that her parents were Vilhjølm Jonsen Baggetun (1736-1768) and Velgjerd Jonsdatter Ellingbø (1732-1805). THIS ALTERNATIVE IS SHOWN HERE.

    Jim’s Ellingboe tree is silent on her parents.

    Jim’s notes:

    Oppfostret av bestefaren Trond (far til Kattevøladn). Mange mente han ble en ny utgave av den gamle patriarken. Han var en flink bonde og Kattevold 44/ var toppgården i Vang på den tiden. Han ble ofte truet på livet fordi han alltid var ute etter all råskapen og fanteriet som var i Vang på den tiden. Han gjorde mye for skolene i bygda, bl.a skaffet han lærebøker. Han ville at ungene skulle lese ordentlige bøker, og ble sint hvis han så at de leste

    (BK. "Gamalt frå Vang): " Han Trond flytta aat Bø og brukte gard'n der i 9 aar. Ein drivande garbrukar var han, og der flødde taa alle ting i Bø i dei aaro. Daa bestefar'n dø, kom dei te Kattevøl, og dei kom ikkje tomhendis. Ei heil dreft med hesta og fe hadde dei med se or Bø. Slik heimafyld hadde ingjen sett før her i bygd'n.

    Endaa va det kje følketomt paa Kattevøl; mange ledige dagdrivarar med lite te bite, og lite te slite. Dei nebbast som smaafugla, ner ein lit'n jobb va te bøans. men han Trond kunna mynstre og stramma dei, so fekk dei nøkk fart i se. I baao støgo Sygarde va det ei babelsk førvirring hjaa frendo hans, som heldt paa fara utaaver bakkin, og Trond stræva lenge med o faa dei te seta føta unde se. Han fekk ikkje stort att før strævet sitt, vart helda misskjent mangei gøng; men sia kom dei daa te kjenne han før den velmeinte og reale mann, som han virkele va.

    Da han giftet seg andre gang, kom rampen og skulle røve bruden. Men hun kom ikke ut. De låste derfor alle inne i huset der festen var. Da Trond giftet seg med Ingeborg flyttet han til Bø 25/ og drev den til stesønnen Amund ble så stor at han kunne overta gården i 1823, Trond fikk livaure på Bø 25/ av stesønnen. (BK "Gamat fra Vang).

    Trond døde antakelig av lungebetennelse. BK skriver: "Trond Jonson fø 5. januar 1855. Han for på Øyremarkna'n um hausten og lei so vondt paa ture at han fekk banin sin taa det. Maren Bøyesdøtte. Ekja ette hono dø um hauste 1873."

    From the Hills Crescent, courtesy of Katherine:

    December 4, 1913
    William Ellingboe Passes Away. This week it becomes the painful duty of the Cresent to chronicle the death of one of Hills most respected citizens, Mr. William Ellingboe, who died at Rochester hospital on the morning of December 3rd, where he went to have an operation for abdomen trouble.
    He suffered with several severe hemorrhages of the stomach about a year ago and was ill for a couple of months but since then had been able to be about the streets until about three weeks ago when he was again taken sick…. His daughter Mrs. Emma Shortt was in constant attendance at his bedside (at Rochester).
    Mr. Ellingboe was 74 on November 7th, and was one of the pioneer settlers of Martin township, having lived on the old home farm since 1873 until about two years ago, when the family moved to Hills.
    Deceased was married in Wisconsin and is survived by a wife, seven daughters and one son, two children, a boy and a girl, having proceeded their father to the Great Beyond.
    In spite of his advanced years Mr. Ellingboe was of a jolly disposition and always had a kind word for everyone. Much could be written concerning the early history of the deceased since coming to this township and settling here, when this county was a veritable wilderness as he was numbered among the first pioneers to settle this section of the county.

    December 11, 1913
    Obit. William Ellingboe was born in Vang Valders, Norway on November 7th, 1839 and died December 3rd, 1913.
    He was united in marriage to the wife that survives him on September 30, 1866 at Jefferson Prairie, Wisconsin.
    Deceased leaves a wife and the following children to mourn him: Ole of Hills, Miss Betsy Olena of Los Angeles, CA, Miss Bertha and Luella of Tempe, AZ, Mrs. W.H. Shortt of Sioux City, IA, Mrs. Sherman Coxe of Denver, CO, Mrs. W.A. West of Sioux Falls, SD, Miss Ida of Hills.

    His obit in the Sioux Falls newspaper:

    Funeral services for the late William Ellingboe, father of Mrs. William West of this city, were held at Hills, Minnesota, this afternoon. The deceased died at Rochester, Minnesota, on December 3rd following an operation for abdominal trouble. Mr. Ellingboe was 74 years old and one of the pioneer settlers of Martin township, Rock County, where he had lived on a farm until about two years ago when the family moved to Hills. He is survived by his wife, seven daughters, and one son.

    He is listed in “The Valdris Book”, a history of the Valdris Samband published in 1920 (available on Google Books), as “William Ellingboe Hills Minn.” His entry shows that he was a member of the Samband between 1902 and 1913 and that he came to America in 1866.

    In a 1914 land ownership map of Rock County, Minnesota, W O Ellingboe owned 160 acres in Section 29 of Martin Twp, about a mile and a half west of the village of Hills. His farm consisted of two 80 acre parcels, the north half of the southwest quarter and the east half of the northwest quarter.

    William’s last will and testament was dated 22 Mar 1912. It names his son Ole as his executor. The two 80 acre parcels were to go to his wife, as a life estate, and then to William’s seven daughters after Ambjor’s death. In addition, his two daughters Betsey Ellingboe and Emma Ellingboe Shortt were to receive immediately on his death $100 each. The rest of his estate was to go to his son Ole and the seven daughters, share and share alike.

    Notes:

    In the 1910 Norwegian census, he was the owner of Hammerstad (Kvaale) 38/2 in Vang. His occupation also included “Komandersergeant.” Living with him were his wife and three childen plus Maren Olsdatter Kvale (#11613 ), a servant.

    He is shown as Bøye Olsen Ellingbø in the 1886 land register, owner of Kvaale Øvre 38/2 Nygaard.

    He is I5851 in Jim’s Ellingboe tree.

    Jim’s notes: Helge Hammarstad wrote that Bøye O. Ellingbø bought half of Kvåle, where his wife had been raised. In 1887, when the new farm was split off from Øvre Kvåle, it was named Hammerstad (after the spit of land called Hammaren that sticks out into Vangsmjøsa), and named his children for the farm because there were so many called Ellingbø. He built a house, hay barn, cow barn and horse stall for the new farm, and cottages and barns at both Helestrønd and Smådalen, the last being built in the village and taken up to the mountain by pack horse in 1908.

    He was a sergeant, then master sergeant (fanejunker, the hightest under officer rank) and all his sons went to under officer school. From 1888-1935 he farmed Hammerstad.

    Notes:

    He is named in the church book birth record as the father of Ove O Ellingboe (#3231). However, that is quite unlikely due to the lack of corresponding matches in modern DNA testing results.

    Ove Vilhelmson later married and moved his family to America in 1849.

    The 1849 date is confirmed by the Digitalarkivet: Migrants from Valdres 1816-67 database. The 30 year-old Ove Vilhelmsen of Bagethun farm in Vang, Valdres, left for America in April of 1849. The notes for the entry say “Amerika - Tilladelse Ifølge Resl Af 6 Febr D. A.” Accompanying him were his wife, Anne Andersdatter, 27, and their two daughters, Anne Ovesdatter, 5, and Berith Ovesdatter, 1 and 1 months. In the church book’s emigration record, Ove and Anne and family left Vang on April 4, 1849.

    Probably he is the “Oval Williamson” farming in Muskego, Waukesha County, Wisconsin, in the 1850 census (September 18th). The farm is worth $600. The family consists of Oval Williamson, 43, his wife Ann, 30, and their daughters Ann, 6, and Betsey, 3. They were all born in Norway and the girls had not begun school yet.

    In the 1860 census (July 3rd), the family had moved to the town of Scandinavia in Waupaca County, Wisconsin. The family consisted of Over Williamsen, 40, Ann, 40, Ann, 16, Betsey, 12, William, 10, Andrew, 7, Dena, 5, Boga, 2, and Over, 1. The census form notes that the four oldest children attended school and that the children from William on were born in this country. The value of the family’s real estate was $1000 and the value of their personal property was $300.

    In the 1870 census (August 9th), the family was still living in Scandinavia, Waupaca County. The family consisted of Ova Williamson, 51, Anna, 50, Anna, 24, Andrew, 17, daughter Dina, 14, son Boie, 12, Edward, 10, and Antone, 8. The real estate is worth $1400 and the family’s personal property is worth $550. Couldn’t find William in the 1870 census.

    In the 1880 census (June 21st), the family is still in Scandinavia Township. The household consists of Ove Wilhelmson, 61, Anne, 50, Dinah, 24, and G. Anton, 17. Dinah is noted as being disabled by “female complaints.”

    In the 1895 state census (June 20th) the O. Williams household had 4 people: 3 males and one female; 1 foreign born in Scandinavia, 3 born in the U.S. This suggests that his wife wasn’t in the household.

    The 1895 biography of his son Buck says this about Ove:

    Ove Williamson, was born in Norway, January 20, 1819, was educated in the schools of his native land, and the days of his boyhood and youth were passed upon the farm. His marriage to Miss Annie Kjos took place in Norway in 1844, and five years later, in 1849, he crossed the Atlantic in a sailing vessel to the New World, where he hoped to secure a home and competence. He first located in Muskegon, where he worked as common laborer some three years, coming thence to Waupaca county in 1853. He was one of the first settlers, and is now the second oldest living resident in Scandinavia township. The hardships and trials of pioneer life are familiar to him, and the history of that county is known to him from the days when it was almost unbroken wilderness, inhabited mostly by Indians. He has borne an important part in the work of development, transforming the land from its uncultivated condition into rich and valuable farms. Here he purchased 160 acres of wild land, on which not a furrow had been turned or an improvement made, and successfully continued its cultivation until 1884, when enfeebled health caused him to lay aside business cares, and he is now living a retired life. He worked for many years on the river, rafting logs, and his career has been that of an industrious and energetic man, bringing to him a well-merited competence. He is a stanch Republican in politics and has served in several local offices with credit to himself and satisfaction to his constituents. He filled the office of assessor for twelve years and has also been township treasurer. He and his family are members of the Lutheran Church, Mrs. Williamson, who was born in Norway September 29, 1820, is also yet living. Their children were: Annie, now the wife of August Larson, a resident of Wausau; William, who is living in La Crosse, Wis; Andrew, the efficient sheriff of Waupaca county; Berit, deceased; Denah; Boie, subject of this sketch, Edward Ove, of Waupaca; Anton G., a farmer of Scandinavia township; and Lewis B., deceased.

    He died and was buried as O Williams.

    The 1889 plat map of Scandinavia Twp, and the 1912 land ownership map shows a 120 acre parcel owned by “Ove Williamson.” The farm was probably being run by Anton and Dena in 1912. The parcel is defined as the eastern half of the northeast quarter of Section 18 and the northeast quarter of the southeast quarter of Section 18. Today, this parcel is about three miles west of the village of Scandinavia and about 4 miles northeast of Amherst. The parcel is nearly bisected by County Road B and its western boundary is, in part, Gilman Road. The Tomorrow River State Trail (on the old Green Bay and Western railroad right-of-way) is just south of the parcel. The portion of the parcel north of County Road B is now forest. The current location of the farmhouse (on the south side of County Road B, about 750 feet east of Gilman Road) appears to be where it was in 1912.

    The Wisconsin Land Patent Database shows three parcels for Ove in Section 18:

    1) 40 acres in 23N, 11E, granted to Ove Wilhelmsen through the Stevens Point land office on 15 Dec 1855.
    2) 40 acres in 23N, 11E, granted to Ove Wilhelmsen through the Stevens Point land office on 1 Sep 1856.
    3) 40 acres in 23N, 11E, granted to Ove Williamson through the Wausau land office on 20 Mar 1875.
