Linda Gardner is right about that school house, it was Toupin school #2. Luella taught at that school in 1950/51.
She stayed at her aunt Lydia and Oscar Larshus during the week and came back to Dunseith the week ends.

Hello Marge,
It is great hearing from you again. I communicate with Howard’s daughter Anna, so I have just been going through her to communicate with Howard. I have listed all the Landsverk’s below that I have in my records that attended Dunseith schools. Howard graduated in 1944 and I have you listed as having graduated in 1957.
I am glad to hear that Howard has an I-POD and an email address. I have now added him to our distribution.
As I remember, you are the one that introduced us to Erling and that you and Erling are cousins too.
Thanks again Marge and keep in touch,
Gary

Thank you Carol and Ivy for your identification of this picture. From the Dunseith book I got the listing of all the Duchesneau children and their spouses. All but three of those listed in Red, I think, are in this picture. Can anyone match the names to the faces?
Gary
