| Helge is a farmer, living in a township, most likely a rural place not a town. |

| A Family Tree in Ancestry.com owned by a Barbara Durbin, contains Helge Dahl. He is listed as being married Nov 27, 1893 in Castlewood , Hamlin, South Dakota. It is possible that the Church was the Hamlin Reformed Church of Castlewood, South Dakota. |
