    Notes 
    • Called Olga Bertina in her father’s will.

      Or 25 September. Her birthdate on her death certificate was 24 September.

      Never married. Evy says she was an invalid, frequently bedridden, whose illness was probably depression.

      According to Ed, Olga spent her life at home on the farm, then in Northfield, and the last years of her life in Waseca, Minnesota. Evy explains that Olga lived with Clara and Al Leggett in Waseca. Shown as living on the farm with Berit (“Betsy”), Albert, and Clara at the time of the 1920 census.

      In the 1930 census, Olga was indeed living with her sister Clara Leggett and family at 604 5th St. in Waseca.

      In the 1940 census, she was living with the Liggetts in Waseca.

      According to her death certificate, she had lived in Waseca for 26 years. Her address was 7th Avenue, SW. Olga died from a cerebral hemorrhage. She also had severe rheumatoid arthritis.

      If Olga had lived with Clara for 26 years, she had gone to live with her shortly after their mother died. This suggests that Olga, although only about 40 years old, may not have been able to live on her own.
