ROSVOLL, Randi RANDI VEIE ROSVOLL Randi Veie Rosvoll died peacefully on Sunday, August 19, 2012 at her home in Atlanta, Georgia, surrounded by family members. Randi was born in Trondheim, Norway on April 26, 1928, where she grew up with parents, Margit, b. Næss and Alv Veie Rosvoll, her big brother, Bjørn and her younger twin brothers, Tor and Odd. Being the only girl was not easy in the WWII and postwar era in Norway. Boys were expected to get an education and girls were expected to get married and take care of a family. Randi's dream was to become a nurse, but after high school, as her brothers pursued higher education, she got a job as a telephone operator. In 1949, her mother's cousin, Myrtle Grande and her husband, Dr. Theodore Winship, who had no children of their own, invited her to stay with them in Washington DC and go to college. She completed undergrad studies at the American University with distinction and continued her education at George Washington University, School of Medicine and Health Sciences, where she obtained a M.D. degree in 1957 and specialized in pathology, like Theodore Winship. She was one among only 5 women to graduate. After her residency and internship, she was hired by Emory University in 1963 as a pathologist at Grady Memorial Hospital. She worked the remainder of her career for the Clinical Laboratories at Emory University Hospital. In addition, she worked a few years for New England Deaconess Hospital and Harvard Medical School in the early 1970s. She worked in Saudi-Arabia as a consultant with the Arabian American Oil Company as well. Randi has taught at Harvard, Georgia State and Emory University Medical School. She produced numerous publications and manuals, and participated in a number of national organizations, most effectively with the American Association of Blood Banks, where she served as an Inspector, Area Chairwoman, National Vice Chairwoman and National Chairwoman. She belonged to 13 different scientific societies. Randi served as the president of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniels of the South, and she is also past president of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniels U.S.A. She was a lifetime member. Randi loved her dogs and has had 8 Cavaliers. Randi never married but was surrounded by a huge family. Inspired by her own experience with the Winship family, she brought all of her nieces and 1 nephew from Norway to attend college. One niece still lives in Atlanta with her husband and 4 children. More than 40 family members gathered at her grandparents' farm every year when she returned to Norway. She was the matriarch of the family, a spot that will be hard to fill. Her care for others and the tendency to spoil us all rotten, being a best friend, enjoying some wine and small-talk in front of a warm fire, not to mention extravagant parties "made from scratch" are what many remember so well about our Randi. She would not pass up any challenge, and charged forward full force. After a lifetime of perpetual motion abroad, her final resting place will be in Norway. Randi is survived by her brother, Odd Veie Rosvoll, nieces and nephews: Brit & Bengt, Knut & Eli, Anne, Nina & Tom, Vigdis & Lars, Stein & Randi, Erik & Vibeke, Bjørn & Hilde, Per Frithjof & Ingunn, Jørgen, Bernt, and 30+ "grand and great-grand children". Please join the family for a celebration of Randi's life on September 8 at 1473 Rainier Falls Drive, Atlanta, GA 30329 at 4:00pm. In lieu of flowers donations to "Doctors Without Borders" would be appreciated.

Arrived with her parents and siblings in Boston in 1896.

In the 1900 census, she was a servant in the Nils Pearson household in Brockton, Massachusetts.

In the 1910 census, she and Elmer lived at 155 Warren Avenue in Boston in a house that he owned with a mortgage. It was a large enough house to hold several lodgers. An article in the 25 Jan 1911 edition of the Boston Globe describes a fire at the lodging house.

In the 1920 census, she and Elmer and Olga rented living quarters at 14 Magnolia Street in Arlington in Middlesex County, Massachusetts. In that census, for some odd reason, she is shown as having been born in France, to French parents.

In the 1923 Arlington, Massachusetts, city directory, Elmer E and Jennie live at 24 Edgerton. Elmer’s occupation is master mariner.

In the 1930 census, she and Elmer and Olga lived at 24 Egerton Road in Arlington in a home that they owned (worth $12,000).

In the 1933 Arlington, Massachusetts, city directory, Elmer E and Jennie lived at 78 Cleveland. Elmer’s occupation was master mariner.

None of our three McFarlands were listed in the 1935 Arlington, Massachusetts, city directory.

In the 1936 Boston city directory, Elmer E MacFarland, wife Jennie, master mariner, lives at 148 W Canton.

In the 1940 census, she is probably the Jenne McFarland, a 62 year-old widow, born in Sweden, living as a lodger at 696 Tremont Street in Boston.

The Boston Voter Registration shows that there was another Jennie McFarland living in Boston during the period that Laurentia lived in Massachusetts. This different Jennie McFarland, shown as Jennie A McFarland, wife of Daniel McFarland was born in New Hampshire and lived at 174 Stratford Street.

Arrived with his parents and younger sisters in Boston in 1896.

He may be the Charles Johnson who was living with Oscar and Tillie in Superior in the 1900 census.

In the 1899 city directory for Superior, Charles Johnson, laborer, lived at 1205 N 3d, the address of Oscar Johnson. That Charles is still at the same address in the 1900 city directory. In the 1901 city directory, when Oscar lives at 510-1/2 Bay, there is a Carl Johnson, who also works at the St P & W Coal Co., who lives at 500 Bay.

There is a death record for a Charles Johnson, a single man who died 31 Aug 1900 in Douglas County, Wisconsin. That Charles was 23 when he died and was born in Sweden in 1877. His father was listed as August Sandberg. This Charles Johnson was buried in Pine City, Minnesota, according to that same death record in the “Wisconsin Deaths and Burials, 1835-1968.”

If we believe the 1910 census entry for Albertina, in which she is shown to have had 6 children, 4 still living, then either Emma or Karl Johan, but not both, were dead by 1910. That would be consistent with the death of Karl Johan, as Charles Johnson, in August of 1900.

The Charles Johnson who died in Superior on 31 August 1900 died of typhoid fever.

Arthur registered for the draft on June 5, 1917, in Otter Tail County. He was single and a farm laborer living with his parents in New York Mills, Otter Tail County, Minnesota. He claims to have been born in Murdock, Minnesota. He was described as tall and of medium build with blue eyes and brown hair.

Arthur was a Private in the U.S. Army in World War I.

At the time of his 1919 marriage to Nellie Cagley, he lived in Monango, North Dakota, and she lived in De Lameur, North Dakota.

Arthur and his family live on Gustavus Avenue in Fergus Falls in the 1930 census. His occupation seems to be “teaching, for self.”

In the 1935/36 Fergus Falls city directory, he was a trucker. He and Nellie lived at 509 Gustavus Avenue E. Same in the 1937/38 Fergus Falls city directory. In the 1939/40 Fergus Falls city directory, their telephone number was 1522.

Arthur was a pastor. He was pastor of the Swatara Methodist Episcopal Church in Aitkin County, Minnesota, from 1925 to 1928.

According to the 1930 census, he came to the U.S. in 1912 and his wife in 1913. In that 1930 census, the family lived in the village of Biwabik.

Arthur had a younger brother, Fred, who was a blacksmith in Brainerd, Minnesota, in the 1930 census. Fred was married to Sarah. This is from the June 18, 1938, edition of the Brainerd Daily Dispatch:

“Mrs. Sarah Cartwright and daughter returned last evening from Biwabik, Minn., where they spent the past two weeks visiting at the home of the Rev. and Mrs. Arthur Cartwright. Accompanying them home were Mrs. Arthur Cartwright, sons, William and Arthur, Jr., daughter Irene, and Miss Edna Orfald. The party will return this evening to their home in Biwabik.”

In the 1940 census, he and Kate and Arthur, Irene, and William lived in Biwabik where the senior Arthur was a “preacher.” The younger Arthur was a laborer in an ore mine.
