    Notes 
    • Questionable. There wouldn’t seem to be any space in the sequence of births for him to have been born. The only source for his existence is a puzzling obit compiled by Jane Gilbertson Nelson:

      Graveside services were held for little Ole Forstrom, the son of Betsy (Thompson) and Ole Forstrom, by Pastor N. E. Wikre. Ole died October 19, 1877. Ole was preceded in death by a brother Thomas Clarence. Ole's parents, Betsy and Ole were blessed with five other children, four sons and a daughter; Thomas, Edward, Robert, Artur and Ida, all of whom were living when their father died in 1897. Betsy passed away September 27, 1938 and Ida (Mrs O. E. Ruh) was the only other child to precede her in death. Ole and Betsy were to rest beside their little boys in the Christiania Lutheran cemetery. /10-19-1877
