I am trying to find information on Lars Oscar Anderson. His parents were Ole M Anderson and Martha (Johnson) Anderson. He was born: Dec. 8, 1886 but I don't know when he died. He was ordained in the Lutheran Free Church in 1910. I'm not sure if he was married. I would like to find out when he died and even more about his siblings. I know he had siblings named Sophia (Sophie), Arthur, Matilda, Mabel, and Ruth. Sophie married Carl W. Quankbeck, but I don't know anything else about the other siblings. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,

From Folkekalender 1924 by Augsburg Publishing Co., Minneapolis, Minn in the listing titled "Ministers of the Norwegian Lutheran Church of America and Their Addresses" is this entry:

"Anderson, L.O. 1910; 11624 Kentucky Ave., Detroit, Mich."

And this name is not in the same publication for 1925 or 1929.

Hilsen,
Jackie M.
