Iver Andersson Nygaard - fødd Hafslo 1887 - utvandra 1912 til ND - forsvinn etter 1917 - hjelp?

[Lars E. Øyane]

Er det nokon i Brukarforum som kan hjelpa meg finna lagnaden til denne unge mannen som tok vegen til Amerika i 1912?

 

Iver Anderson Nygaard, son av Anders Johannesson Alme Nygaard og kona Johanna Jensdotter Bathen, var fødd i Hafslo i Sogn 11.8.1887 og utvandra som einaste medlemmet av den næraste ætti si til Amerika i 1912. Han fór då som farmarbeidar til Kindred, Cass Co., ND.

 

Men, då han registrerte seg for deltaking i første verdskrigen i 1917, var han flytt til Enderlin, Ransom Co., ND der han var bygningsarbeidar (http://search.ancestry.com/iexec?htx=View&r=an&dbid=6482&iid=ND-1819452-3386&fn=Ivan+Anders&ln=Nygaard&st=r&ssrc=&pid=25871557). Ved det høvet vart namnet hans skrive IVAN ANDERS NYGAARD, men underskriften hans var tydeleg IVER ANDERS NYGARD.

 

Slekt i Noreg, særleg ei søsterdotter som framleis bur i Hafslo, hugsar mor si snakte om Iver i Amerika so seint som i 1940-åri, men ingen brev er tekne vare på, og ingen er i dag i stand til å seia kvar det var av denne karen i Amerika!

 

So no vonar eg at einkvan i Brukarforum kan greia denne nøtti, og eg takkar so mykje på førehand for alle gode tips!

 

Med venleg helsing,

Esther M. Probst was born February 2, 1917 in Sioux City, IA, to Iver Anton and Millie Nygard (Iver Anton Olsen Jorgenvag and Malla Jacobia Byrkja). She went to be with her Lord on March 23, 2012 at the age of 95 years, 1 month, 21 days, from the Syracuse Community Memorial Hospital.

Esther was baptized April 1, 1917 at St. Peters Lutheran Church, Sioux City, IA by Rev. Helge Hoverstad. Esther was confirmed in 1933 by Rev. J. Wm. Carlson at St. John’s Lutheran Church.

She graduated from Central High School in Sioux City January 26, 1935. She attended Lutheran Bible Institute, Minneapolis, MN from 1935-1936. She graduated from Lutheran Deaconess Nursing School, Chicago, IL in 1940. Esther’s first employment as a Registered Nurse was in Chicago, IL at Lutheran Deaconess Hospital in 1940. She worked at various hospitals in Nebraska throughout the years, including Beatrice (where she met Fred), Lincoln, Tecumseh, Syracuse, Nebraska City, and Auburn, plus the Tecumseh Care Center. She retired from nursing in 1982. Esther married Fred W. Probst on November 1, 1941 at St. John’s Lutheran Church, Sioux City (by Rev. J. Wm. Carlson). Their first home together was in Sterling, NE. Later, they lived on farms near Syracuse and Cook. Fred operated a cattle-feeding operation until he retired in 1977. He preceded her in death in May 1995. Her husband and four daughters were her dearest loves: Janet Marie Paul (David), Mud Butte, SD. Patricia Elaine Richmond (Robert) Waverly, NE. Beverly Helen Paul (Roger) Persia, IA. Darlene Joyce Bogdanoff (Mike) Whittier, CA. There are 13 grandchildren and 31 great-grandchildren, who gifted her with many smiles and letters throughout the years.

Esther cherished her Norway family; she was fluent in writing and speaking Norwegian through the exchange of hundreds of heartwarming letters, calls, and gifts. She enjoyed trips to Norway in 1969, 1991, and 1993.

Fred and Esther were faithful members of Grace Lutheran Church of Cook, NE. Esther was a past-president of the Church Women’s Group, a member of Goldenrod Extension Club beginning in 1943, and the Cook Women’s Club beginning in 1959. She chaired the Cook Band Mothers Cookbook project.

Esther was an accomplished seamstress using her talent to sew all of her and her children’s clothing, (along with bridal dresses) for her 4 daughters. She won a long list of prizes from the Otoe and Johnson County Fairs for her sewing, canning, baked goods, fresh garden goods, and ceramics entries, with the highlight of winning Grand Champion in 1982 for her 4-piece suit entry.

Esther kept a bountiful garden to feed her family, along with canning several hundred quarts of fruits and vegetables each summer. She enjoyed photography; many of her community pictures are in the museum at Cook, NE. Another talent was hand-painting hundreds of pieces of ceramics and gifting her family and friends with these works of art. She will be missed by family and friends!

Funeral Services will be, Wednesday March 28, 2012 at 2:00 P.M. at Grace Lutheran Church, Cook, NE, with burial at Grace Lutheran Cemetery. Family suggests memorials to Grace Lutheran Church, Cook, NE, or the Gideon’s.

VISITATION: Tuesday March 27 from 9 A.M. until 9 P.M. with family greeting friends from 6 until 8 P.M. at the funeral home.

Fusselman-Allen-Harvey Funeral Home Syracuse, NE (402) 269-2441

Hjarteleg takk til Ann-Mary for kjapt og spennande svar!

 

Eg har òg vore inne på tanken om at det kunne vera mannen frå Sioux City, Woodbury Co., IA, men diverre so er han litt i eldste laget (fødd 8.7.1881 ifølgje SSDI), og han var gift alt på den tidi som "vår" Iver var byggarbeidar i Enderlin, ND. So han trur eg me diverre må utelukka som aktuell "kandidat"!

 

Med venleg helsing,

 

Lars E. Øyane

 

Eg ser at du Ann-Mary er komi til same konklusjon...
