I've looked at all the links in jkmarler's post above. It appears that all are related to Anna, her father and mother. Anna's father Ole came to Wi in 1891 with or without her mother, Anne. Since Anna was born in early 1892, she was most likely born in America.?? Anne and Ole are buried in Menominee. Anne died in the early 1900's and Ole lived as a boarder. The Moen's were from Sor-Trondelag area in Norway. I'm not sure what Edwin Nyhagen was doing in Glendive, Mont. But it seems he left the family between 1910-1920.

A lot of names and links Pam, but it seems like the parents of Anna Christina Moen Nyhagen are:
Ole Olsen Moum born 07 May 1870 in Støren, Sør-Trøndelag. Emigration.
and
Ane Christoffersdatter Storrød-Sæter born 07 May 1864 in Støren, Sør-Trøndelag. Emigration ??.

The farmhistory book for Støren tells that Ane Christoffersdatter Storrød-Sæter married Ole Moum from Støren, and emigrated to America.It doesn't tell where they married, but it seems it must have taken place in America if the emigration links shows the corect ppl. Funny that they're both born May 7th!

The distance between Moan, Soknedal and Storrødsætra, Budalen are 11 km (7 miles), and is a 10 minute drive today.

Here's a link to the marriage of Edwin and Anne in 1915, so separation comes after that:

I don't know if Anna and Edwin ever divorced but according to one source on ancestry.com, he may have changed his name to Edwin Otis Holen when he disappeared in 1929.

Well she is listed as widowed in 1930... But here is an Edwin Holen with the same birthdate as Edwin Nygarden in SSDI:

Name: Edwin Holen
State of Issue: Indiana
Date of Birth: Monday August 08, 1892
Date of Death: January 1971
Est. Age at Death: 78 years, 5 months
Last known residence:
State: Florida

Apparently the same Edwin Otis Holen in 1940 census but with a son aged 23 in 1940 seems a bit improbable:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:V1RY-FGD

Edwin in FAG:
https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Holen&GSiman=1&GScid=82664&GRid=39636603&

Here is his marriage record in Indiana. His parents are named Iver Holen and Maggie Olson:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XXGN-QY4

And his other marriage in Indiana, This time his father is given as Nyhagen Holen:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XX12-STS
And this record says he has been married twice before divorced in 1931 and 1941

And apparently not done in 1964 from Fergus Falls newspaper:
"Marriage Licenses Edwin Otis Holen, 71, and Myrtle Belle Viken, 66, both of Detroit Lakes Route"

and MOMS:
OTTER TAIL 18-189 01/26/1964 HOLEN, EDWIN OTIS VIKEN, MYRTLE BELLE

Yes, it's odd that Edwin would have a son aged 23 and step children younger than that. But the dates and place of birth line up.

It's uncertain if Edwin ever divorced Anna. But it looks as if he married twice in Indiana.

Anna Christine is the right person as her birthdate matches Anna Nyhagen's SSDI listing birthdate, but I have not been able to find her in the 1900 or 1905 census. I don't have access to the ELCA records any longer but perhaps her confirmation record could be found?


Baptism record from the ELCA records on Ancestry.com

Anna Christine Monne
in the U.S., Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, Records, 1875-1940
Name: Anna Christine Monne
Event Type: Baptism
Birth Date: 4 Mar 1892
Baptism Date: 17 Jul 1892
Baptism Place: Woodville, Wisconsin
Father: Ole O Monne
Mother: Anne K Monne Thon
Church Name: North Rush River Lutheran Church
Church Location: Baldwin, Wisconsin

Found her confirmation in Rush River Lutheran Church for 1907. ELCA is not the easiest to search in but here it is. Age is 15

Anna Christine Moum
in the U.S., Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, Records, 1875-1940
Name: Anna Christine Moum
Event Type: Confirmation
Confirmation Date: 28 Apr 1907
Father: Ole O Moum
Mother: Anne K Storessther
Church Name: North Rush River Lutheran Church
Church Location: Baldwin, Wisconsin

Jan Peter posted the 1865 Census record for

Ane Christoffersdatter found at the farm named Storrød-Sæter maybe close to the last name given Anne K in the confirmation record.

The records appear to be connected but how does one make sense of it?
