    • Baptism: 1 May 1814, Vang i Valdres, Oppland, Norway
    • Confirmation: 10 Aug 1828, Vang i Valdres, Oppland, Norway

    Notes:

    There are many erroneous statements of her birthdate. One source says 11 Sep 1812, her obit said that she was born April 24, 1812, and her gravestone says April 22, 1813.

    In the 1885 Minnesota state census, she is probably the 74 year-old Isabell Thompson living with her husband Ole with or next door to H O Thompson in Nunda Twp, Freeborn County.

    According to the 1900 census she had had 9 children, 6 still living. In that census, she was an 86 year-old widow living with her son Henry and his family in Nunda Twp, Freeborn County, Minnesota.

    Worth County is the Iowa county adjacent to Minnesota’s Freeborn County.

    From the Hills Crescent, courtesy of Katherine:

    March 23, 1905
    Mrs. Ingeborg Thompson, mother of Mrs. Nels Iverson, died at the home of her daughter, southeast of town, Thursday, March 17, 1905, of old age. Mrs. Thompson was born in Norway April 24th, 1812 and was therefore nearly 93 years of age. She was not well known here outside the circle of her immediate relatives, having come here from Albert Lea only about two years ago. Mr. & Mrs. Iverson left Lester Saturday morning with the remains for Albert Lea where interment will take place. **(buried Silver Lake Lutheran Cemetery, Worth Co., IA)

    The following was originally prepared by Katherine and can be found at Find A Grave:

    Engeborg was the youngest of eleven children. She was a strong willed person and probably instigated the family migration to America. She was a tall thin woman with auburn or reddish hair and blue eyes. Lee G. Larson (Lewis Larson's son) remembers that when she was over 90 years old, she smoked a pipe and wore a white cap. Lewis Larson (son-in-law) once commented that Engeborg was quite forceful and sometimes petulant in manner.

    Rachel Thompson married Nels Iverson and after Ole's death, Engeborg lived with the Iversons near Hills, Minnesota, until her death. Engeborg and Andrew Thompson went to South Dakota, where they both took up claims near the village of Montrose. Here Engeborg married Lewis "Lars" Hanson Larson; and Andrew, after losing his wife and two young daughters (interred at Montrose cemetery) moved to Spokane, Washington, remarried and raised a new family.

    Birth:
    Jim has her born at Ellingbø 33/1 Nigarden. The incorrect cemetery record says her birthdate was 22 April 1813.

    Notes:

    He is I4592 in Jim’s VS.

    Born and died in Tune 36/2 nørre, Nordigarden. Buried in Vang kirkegård. Elected to the Norwegian parliament in 1871, 1874, 1877, and 1880.

    Han var poståpner, ordfører fra 1862, Stortingsmann 1871. Han overtok ordførervervet fra Nils Wangensteen i 1861 og hadde det helt fram til 1877. Altså i 16 år. Ingen andre hadde sittet så lenge som ham i Vang.

    I "VTHT" 1981 står det om Nils:
    "Han overtok farsgarden i 1855. Gift med Marit Helgesdotter, dotter til Helge Torsteinsen Kvåle og Sigrid Andersdotter. Thune døyde i meget ung alder. Han var medlem av herredsstyret frå 1862 og vart ordfører med det same. Det var han til 1877.
    Thune var representant på Stortinget fyrste gong 1871-73, attvald 1874-76 og i 1880-82. Han var varamann 1877-79 og møtte då i staden for Baggerud. (HB: Det vil si at han satt sammenhengende på Stortinget i nesten 10 år, Han døde før han kunn e gå inn i den siste Stortingsperioden han var valgt til)

    Thuna vart rekna som ein lovande mann, og det var eit tap for Valdres at han gjekk burt i så ung alder. Det var no mange år før ein Valdris vart valt til tingmann, like til 1889. (Men O.K. Ødegård møtte som varamann fleire gonger i denne periode.)

    OWB (Wangensteen-ætten) "Han var en mægtig personlighet, havde mange Interesser og stor virkelyst, hvor han kom til at indtage en ledende Stilling i sin Bygd. Og omendskjønt selvlært i ordets fuldeste mening besatt han alligevel en betydelig del Kundskaber sådet påsakkyndigt Hold var sagt at Nils Thune var av Valdresdalens Kundskabsrigeste Mand på den Tid. Også på egen Hånd havde han lagt sig efter Sprog, så han talte flytende Engelsk og lidt Tysk, og han kom derved til at gjøre Tjeneste som Tolk for reisende Engelskmænd.

    Han var liden av Vekst men vakker og hans Opptreden så absolut naturlig og ukunstlet, at enhver som kom ham når, følte sig behagelig berørt ved hans Person. I ung Alder blev han indvalgt i Formandskabet, og afløste sin Slægtning Nils Wangensteen i Stillingen som Ordfører. Og da de kommunale Affærer i årrekker var skjøttet i skjønn Enighed af Stedets Prest, Lensmand og dennes Søn Nils W, så blev der nu sterke Rivninger. For Sagen var, at Nils T. var en kamplysten Mand som ikke slog en Tøddel af, førend alle Kommunens Anliggender var i fuld Orden. Og som rimeligt er likte ikke Prest, Lensmand, og den tidligere Ordfører, at Nils T efterhånden kom til å bidrage til å sætte dem ud af Befatning med kommunale Anliggender, og vistnok til Trøst for sig selv brugte de leilighedsvis at citere Napoleons Udsagn om Karl Johan: " Jeg har fostret en Slange ved mit Br yst". For Nils Thune havde erhvervet meget af sine Kundskaber hos Presten, Lensmanden og Nils W. som han havde såmegen Omgang med.

    Det bør erindres at Nils T søgte at forhindre Valdres Distrigstsfængsel opført for Amtets og Statens Regning, men her fik han ikke den fornødne Tilslutning. Nu derimod da 50 Års Forløp har kastet Lys over Tingen, viser det sig at Fengslet ikke ale ne er en Uhyrlighed for Distriktet, men at det godtsom har støt uden Belæg og kun tjent til at medføre store årlige Udgifter. Nils Thune kunde ikke nøies med bare at være Ordfører og ledende Mand inden sin Bygd. Med sine sterke Interesse for sociale Spørgsmål følte han Trang til end mer at kaste sig ind i det offentlige Liv, og da han i 1876 for første Gang ble v valgt til Stortingsmand, viste det sig at han var en Mand, ikke bare med passiv Indsigt, men med Ideer og positiv Reformtrang.

    Såvel i offentlige som private Gjøremål var Nils T en fremadstrebende Mand. Han var i Årrækker Poståbner og Stationsholder, samt Agent for Emigrations kontoret i Bergen.

    Fra sit Gårdsbruk på Thune, som jeg af personlig Erfaring, ved at han elskede så dybt, tog han tunge løft, ryddede Agre og Marken for Sten og Stub og tenkte vistnok at Gården skulde forblevet i Slægtens Eie videre fremover, men så blev ikke Tilfælde, idet den ældste Søn ikke såret længe efter Overtagelsen igjen solgte Gården til Kristoffer Dahl - til stor Græmmelse for den øvrige Slægt. Et Forsøg på at få Gården tilbage me d Odel lykkedes ikke.

    Nils Thune var gift med Marit Helgesdatter på Kvale. De havde følgende Barn:

    1. Trond ( ) gift med Berit J Wangensteen Kvam ( ) uden Barn. Uddannet Agronom overtog han Fædrenegården som han kort efter solgte og reiste til Amerika, hvorefter han efter 7 Års Forløb kom tilbage som en Rig Mand. Derover var han fø rst Handelsbetjent ved et stort Handelshus, men havde sin egen Forretning i North Branch, Minnesota.

    2. Ingeborg gift med fhv Amtskolebestyrer Asle Bergsgaard. Barn: Arne, Haldis Margit og Nils

    3. Helge (1861-1950) Stortingsmand og Lagtingspresident. (som fotnote hos OBW står det: For at lette arbeidet med nærværende Slægtsbiografi, var det aftalt at han skulde skrive Udkast til en selvbiografi, men sådant har stedse ladet vente på sig ) (Han ble cand.jur i 1893, lensmann i Vang fra 1891. Han satt på Stortinget i to perioder fra 1911 valgt første gang som suppleant til Statsrevisioen. Da han var lensmann i Vang, hadde han engang arrestert Gjest Bårdsen. Helge skulle kjøre ham til Oslo på selve julaften. Om kvelden tok de inn på et gjestgiveri, og Helge syntes det var leit at Gjest måtte gå i håndje rn på julaften. "Hvis du løva ikkje rømme, ska du sleppe jødne", hadde Helge sagt. Gjest hadde gitt ham sitt æresord på ikke å rømme fra ham. Dermed feiret de julaften og kjørte videre neste dag til Oslo, uten at Gjest satt i håndjern. Da de kom fram ti l politihuset i Oslo, ble alle forferdet over at Gjest ikke satt i "jern". Han ble straks boltet fast. Helge tok farvel med ham, to timer etterpå hadde Gjest rømt fra fengslet i Oslo, (men sitt æresord til Helge holdt han).
    Johannes T Nefstad skriver i sin bok, (hvor han ellers har tatt med det meste fra OBW - Wangensteenslekten): Han var student 1884, kand.jur.1893, lensmann i Vang, meget benyttet som kommunemann, medlem av Oppland fylkes utvalg fra 1907 -1911,
    gjeldsmeklingsmann. Han var med i anleggsstyret og styret for Valdresbanen 1915-1937, mesteparten av tiden som formann. Han var stortingsvaramann 1910-1912 og stortingsmann fra 1922-1930, lagtingspresident fra 1927-1930, var også medlem av forskjellige offentlige nemder. han var en meget god mann for Vang i den tiden han var på Stortinget, og Vang kommune kan nok takke ham for at de fikk beholde sine fjellrettigheter. Han testamenterte mesteparten av sin store formue til Vang kommun e. Min far, Lars Bøe (1894-) gikk til ham, da han skulle låne penger for å begynne på lærerskolen. han fikk låne 400 korner, som far betalte tilbake de to første årene etter eksamen, enda årslønnen bare var 300 kroner p.r. år!

    4. Nils Cand jur., Politifuldmægtig i Trondhjem (Han ble senere fylkesmann i Buskerud. (se eget nr,)

    5. Marit (1880-197?) Hun var lærer i Vang, UG. hadde hytte på Øyno.
