Fauske reunion:

What a fantastic reunion this had to have been. When I saw other pictures posted on Facebook of their reunion, I was hoping We’d see some with their mother Elenore (Stubby) too. Doesn’t she look fantastic. She was 97 years young this year.  Thanks, Carrole Fauske Rude for posting.

The whole family looks wonderful in both of these pictures. I know the majority of you know and can connect to this family too.

Off the top of my head I think Stubby is the only surviving of the Johnny and Margaret Hiatt siblings. Her first cousins, Sisters: Leola Lagerquist and Nettie Peterson, both in their 90’s too, are doing well. I recently saw some of Nettie’s Facebook comments too, so I know she is actively engaged with Facebook.

No problem; what YOU see is what YOU got, regarding posting of my photo. We are yet locked down inside our facility. We have (staff and each resident), tested negative for the last two (2) test periods when checked each two (2) weeks. Thus, we are now able to go to the DR for meals. We have assigned seating to facilitate any contact- tracing, if that would become needed. Good days to YOU and YOURS

Gary, I forgot to mention the most important part. Our lady Barber was finally able to get into the facility so I had my normal haircut down to the skin. The long hair that shows on the picture is nearly an insult but it was an accumulation from about 5 months because I needed a haircut before we got locked down. Don’t want to keep bothering you I just wanted to make that clarification so that maybe you can make that note in any narrative so the folks that know me want to feel that I fell off the edge even though I live out here in Western North Dakota where it pretty close to the edge. Thank you again Gary time for me to catch a little sleep I didn’t go to bed last night I was learning about camshaft degrees lobes and durations and how to build those Transmissions that you use and race cars when you can keep the pedals to the metal and just keep moving your levers through the six gears. Maybe Bernadette would remember me but y’all so he can say hi to your caregivers for me.

Gary, 

Thanks for the email. I really appreciate having these. Kjerstin was my great-great grandmother.

Her daughter Petrina was my great grandmother and Petrina’s daughter, Cora was my grandmother.

Kjerstin and Petrina are buried at a small cemetery at Metigoshe. 

Thanks again,

Toni

Enjoy your upcoming birthday! I turn 70 this go round.

 

Gary Stokes’ reply to Toni
Toni, I am so blessed to have the same birthday as you.
You too enjoy your milestone birthday.

My dad’s sister Olga Hanson, was married to your mothers Brother Bert Hanson. That makes us almost first cousins too. Jean Pladson and Audrey Aitchison are our common first cousins.

 

Gary’s Comments on the Kjersten Larson Photo.

Kjersten Larson was born in 1820 and died at the age of 95 in1915.

I am very sure this picture was taken in the Lake Metigoshe area.  I counted 38 Grandkids of Kjersten Larson in this photo. I am sure they probably were not all present either. Many of these grandkids, who are Great Grandparents to many of our readers, had large families of their own. To this day, Kjersten Larson must have a thousand or two descendants. I am sure Doreen Larson Moran or some of you others have this Larson family tree all broken down? Half the hills must be related.

Condolences to the Hiatt Family

From Brad Salmonson (DHS ’61 Valedictorian): s Idaho Falls, ID.

Gary,

Please pass my condolences to the Harvey Hiatt family. Harvey and I started grade school together at Ackworth school and were best buddies during the six years that Harvey went to school there. We later connected during college at the School of Forestry and occasional visits back to North Dakota. I think about him a lot, he will be missed.

Kjersten Larson Family postings Reply from Cheryl Larson Dakin (’71):  Bedford, TX. Hi Gary

I was just looking at the originals of these pictures last night. My dad (Mensvil Norman Larson, Jr) and O. Gordon Tang are cousins. Dad often talked about his visits to his Aunt Hilma in Wisconsin. I am trying to sort out the Larson and John Anderson pictures and family histories I have so I can put them in some kind of order for my kids and for my sisters. Having no experience with this and not a whole lot of time yet to devote to it, it’s a long process. I’m giving myself until next summer so I have something to present at the family reunion. I am praying Covid is not going to be an issue then.  We are fine here in Texas but pretty much hunkered down and wearing masks when we do go anywhere. Our church opened up for 3 weeks and then closed again 2 weeks ago so we are back to online worship services. I am so tired of all these Covid restrictions as I am sure everyone else is too. I hope everyone is well and hanging in there.

Kjersten Larson Family postings Reply from Doreen Larson Moran (BHS ’61): b Spokane, WA.

Gary – the date for the birthday photo would be July 1910 when Kjersten was 90.  She lived five more years, until 1915 when she was almost 95.  The Lake Metigoshe Christian Center is where she filed her homestead claim and lived in her own little house from 1890-1915.  Yes, that is 25 years – she filed when she was 70 years old.  To list all the descendants of Kjersten would be very long indeed.  Martin, Lars and Hans Peder had very large families that were in and around the Hills.  Adrian had 13 children but all but Arthur A went West.  Some changed their last names from Larson to the land they left in Norway.

I am pleased to see these pictures all together.  Ruth Tang, I knew your grandmother Hilma and mother-in-law and father-in-law quite well, but never had the pleasure of meeting you.  Hilma’s brother Leo, was my grandfather.  I will email you later when I am back home in WA after being in ND for the past month – just enjoying life.

Kjersten Larson Family postings.

 Folks,

After receiving this old picture of Kjersten Larson with her Daughter-In-Laws from Ruth Tang, I retrieved the previous postings from 8/26/2009 that go along with her picture. All this is hard enough to follow without a bunch of other postings. With that said, today’s blog is solely the Kjersten Larson Family.

Message and picture from Ruth Tang:   

Gary:

I tried to share the attached photo after seeing photos of this same family taken on the same day. The post was from August of 2009.

I am hoping that you will post it for me. I couldn’t get it to work.

I stumbled upon the blog because my husbands’ Grandmother was Hilma Larson Tang. I inherited a great number of photos from my father-in-law O. Gordon Tang.

In the photo Kjersten Larson is seated. The women from left to right are, Lena Nikoline (Martin), Karoline (Lars), Thea (Hans Peder) and Kristine (Adrian).

Photos such as these should be available to any and all descendants that wish to see them.  It must have been a very proud day for Kjersten, being 91 years old and responsible for her part in all those Grandchildren.

Gary’s comments:

I Believe Petrina Larson Hanson in the second picture down from the top and in the bottom picture was a grandmother to Toni, Bev and Duane Morinville and also to Jean Pladson and Audrey Hanson Aitchison who are also my first cousins on their mothers’ side?

 

Posting from 8/26/2009

From Cheryl Larson Dakin (’71):  

Hi Gary

In reply to Audrey Hanson Aitchison, I am enclosing a photo of Kjersten and her sons (2nd picture from the top) (in the back-row Martin, Hans Peter, Lars and Adrien. Kjersten is in front with her daughter Petrina) This was taken on Kjersten’s 90th birthday.

The other picture is of Martin Larson and his sons. My grandpa Mensvil is on the far left. I’ll have to call Dad to get the names of the other boys. And to Bev and Jean…I’m still working on peaches I brought back from North Dakota last week so between catching up with grandchildren and fixing peach preserves, I haven’t had a chance to put together the other Larson information I promised. But I will get it to you soon.

Cheryl Larson Dakin.

 

I believe Martin Larson in the picture below was a great grandfather to Diane Larson Sjol (70) and Cheryl Larson Dakin (71)? Martin Larson was Mensvil Larson’s father. Mensvil Larson was the Bottineau county Sheriff for many years. His son Mensvil Jr. (Norman) Larson, father of Diane and Cheryl, lives in Bottineau.

Please correct me if I have interpreted some of this wrong. Gary

From Audrey Hanson Aitchison:

Patrina Hanson celebrated her 95th birthday on March 20, 1949. There were 40 relatives and friends there. She received a rocking chair. Reverend T. Weltzin spoke a Norwegian message. Patrina was 27 when she came to America. Martin Larson was her only living relative at her party. Does anyone remember where Hagrop and Patrina lived?

Gary Stokes comments from Cebu, Philippines

 Good day folks,

 I hope all is well with most of you, with this Coronavirus and all. This pandemic has taken a toll on pretty much the whole world.

 From Mid-March until May 20th we were locked down and couldn’t leave our premises. Only one person per house hold was given a pass to go out 2 days per week to purchase food and necessities. Our helper had our pass. I’d drive her in the car and then just wait for her in the car. They had guards up on our road checking all those that went out too. It was a real lockdown. They’d let me drive our helper as long as I didn’t get out of the car.  We are able to go out now, of course with masks and social distancing. They have guards in the malls to make sure folks follow the arrows and maintain social distancing. 

Cebu City has pretty high positive Covid numbers at the moment too. They are still locked down tight. We live outside of the city so we are OK. To maintain social distancing in Cebu City, the president brought in the Army with soldiers, armored vehicles and Helicopters to observe social distancing. If they see any group gatherings, they are reported and dissolved immediately. I think a little stricter here than back in the states.

Hiatt, Harvey Obit

Folks,

I received word that Harvey Hiatt Passed away at his home in Flagstaff AZ on June 30th.  I will post more of his details when I receive his obituary later this week or next week.

Harvey’s ashes will be buried in the Ackworth Cemetery. Please see picture below.

Chatting with Harvey’s widow, Tanya, she said she will prepare his obituary this week. She is taking his passing very hard. We extend our condolences to her during these hard times with Harvey’s passing.

Harvey was the son of Willie E. and Maxine Radley Hiatt. His siblings are Barbara Cote, Laurence Dale (LD) and Douglas. In 1954 Willie and Maxine sold their farm in the Ackworth community to Norris Knutson and moved to Bottineau. Harvey attended the first six years of his schooling at the Ackworth Country school.  Grades 7 through High school he attended the Bottineau schools. Off the top of my head I believe he graduated with the BHS class of 1961.

\Harvey and his entire family always remained very connected to their roots, the Ackworth community. In my younger days, before they moved to Bottineau, our families were interactive on a daily basis. Very close. Their farm, one mile east of ours, now the Norris and Arlene Knutson farm, was the original Amos Hiatt farm. Amos was Harvey’s Grandfather. The original Hiatt Homestead (Harvey’s Great Grandparents) was located on the exact spot as our, the Bob Stokes farm, Buildings. Our family ties go back many years to the beginning of the 1900’s.

This picture was taken at Dale’s Café when we had a mini reunion with our former Ackworth school teacher Geraldine LaFromboise Marcavage.

Geraldine (Geri) LaFromboise Marcavage was our teacher at Ackworth in 1954/55. This would have been the first year of Winter school. Prior to this Ackworth was a summer school. I was in 2nd grade, Harvey Hiatt and Stan Salmonson were in 6th grade and Barbara Hiatt was in 8th grade. Geraldine lived with our family when she taught at Ackworth. I had not seen Miss LaFromboise since 2nd grade, 52 years prior to this photo being taken. Prior to our going back to Dunseith for the 2007 reunion, I decided to locate Geraldine. She was a hard one to track down, but I did find her.

Posted by Vickie Metcalfe (’70): Bottineau, ND

June 25, 2020

Hello Gary and Dunseith Alumni,

Condolences to the extended Morin/Kjorsvik family of David Kjorsvik.

David Kjorsvik was a proudly patriotic, quiet and unassuming person.

I knew David and his wife Donna (Morin)Kjorsvik, as a truly committed couple.

David treated Donna, his wife as if she were gold. He truly treasured his family.

And he treasured his country.

His wife, Donna, my cousin Elaine and I all attended and graduated together with BS Elementary Ed degree’s from UND.

Many times, David provided transportation from Grand Forks to Dunseith in his Toyota Corolla.

David quietly maneuvering the car safe fully and skillfully, through good weather or bad.

Donna, Elaine and I when together talked education nonstop. ….. David listened.

Blessed be the memories of David and Donna (Morin) Kjorsvik.

Sincerely,

Vickie L. Metcalfe

David Lorentz Kjorsvik, son of Lorentz and Selma (Northagen) Kjorsvik was born on December 16, 1949 in McVille ND. He grew up in Nelson County, attended Melrose #4 School, Michigan Public School and graduated from Michigan High School with the class of 1968.

David enlisted in the United States Army on December 27, 1968 and proudly served his country during the Vietnam War with foreign service in Germany. He was honorably discharged from active duty on December 17, 1970 and continued with the Army Reserves until December of 1974.

David was united in marriage to Donna C. Morin in 1971 in Dunseith ND. They established their home initially in Grand Forks, but moved to Wahpeton ND when David attended NDSSS.  He received his degree as an electrician in 1976, earned his journeyman license in 1981 and his master electrician license in 1987.  He worked at Burkland Electric in Lakota for several years.  In 1988, David became the owner and operator of D&D Electrical in Dunseith ND.  David and Donna resided in the Turtle Mountains, eastern North Dakota, Lakota for many years and after Donna passed away he moved to Devils Lake.

David wanted to continue to serve his country, so in 1990 he joined the North Dakota Army National Guard.

FROM THE PAST
Blog (93) posted on Jun 21, 2010

Teacher and Class room shortages in the Philippines:

Folks, our helpers little boy, JR and Bernadette’s little great niece, Jasmine, are first graders this year. The school year here is from June thru March. When school started last week there were 95 first graders in JR and Jasmine’s class with one teacher and no helpers in an average size class room. That is what you call togetherness. Today, Monday, the principal decided their class was a bit large for one teacher and that there were a few too many students for the room capacity. Today they spilt the class in half with half going in the morning and the other half in the afternoon all in the same room with the same teacher. I’d venture to say there is not much one on one teacher/student relationship in that class. The average teacher’s salary is $250/month. Gary

Class Pictures taken at the reunion:

Folks, These are some class pictures (71, 72, 59 & 65) that Myra Henning provided that I posted from ND without identifications. I’m pretty sure I’ve identified those in the class of 59 correctly and I know I’ve gotten all those in the class of 65 labeled correctly. The other 2 classes I need some help with. I will repost with the correct ID’s.

I know there were other class pictures taken that I do not have. I know there is one of the class of 68 and I know there must be one somewhere of the class of 60. The class of 60 folks had quite a turn out and I know you guys had a get together a night or two before the reunion. We’d love to see any pictures that you guys may have and others too.

Gary

I must have been singing in the photo – notice the musical note above my head? Ha! How great of Myra to share these. I took several, but haven’t had time yet to even load them into my computer. Susan has my photos on her computer, too, and there are several of the Class of ’65 – which I’m sure she will share so everyone can see how great they look “after all these years”!

What a great reunion!
