Norman County Web Site:

This is a well-maintained web site and there are several sections regarding the history of Norman County. A. Megrund, who married Jorgen & Ingeborg is mentioned in connection with different churches in Shelly and Halstad Townships. In the 1885 MN State Census it will be noted that Hans P. Oien, a witness for Jorgen & Ingeborg's marriage was a close neighbor of Andreas & Anne and Olive.
