She was born February 10, 1912 in Fergus Falls, MN, the daughter of Edward P. & Olava (Saxhaug) Bye. She married John Martin Pedersen Jr. in Fergus Falls, MN on Aug. 19, 1936, and he preceded her in death on July 4, 1965.

      She was the informant for her sister Mildred’s death certificate. At that time, Ethel lived at 3335 New England Avenue in Chicago. Because Mildred’s last residence according to the SSDI was in Chicago, it’s possible that Mildred lived with Ethel for awhile before going into the nursing home in Michigan.
