    Notes 
    • According to obituary, he had a great physical handicap. If he did, it must have come after September 12, 1918, because no “obvious disability” is listed on his draft registration card. Jim’s site explains that Trond had both legs amputated due to diabetes.

      Shown as Thrond J. Ellingboe on his death certificate.

      He is still living at home with his mother and siblings in the 1895 state census.

      In the 1900 census, he is a boarder with his brother Iver on the farm of Kari Lee, a 76 year-old widow (#23958) in Newburg Twp, Mitchell County, Iowa. This household includes two of Kari’s single daughters (Carrie, 41, and Julia, 39) as well as Kari’s 103 year-old (!) mother-in-law, Guri.

      Referred to as “merchant” on Marie Louise’s birth certificate.

      In the 1910 census, Thrond, 37, and his wife Ambjor, 39, and family are living in Dennison Village, Goodhue County, MN. This is Thrond’s 2nd marriage, her first. The two have been married 9 years and she has borne 4 children, all still living. The children living with Thrond and Ambjor are Amanda, 13, Ivar, 7, Marie, 5, Arthur, 3, and Helen, 1 and 7/12.

      In a 1914 land ownership map of Warsaw Twp, Goodhue County, “T. I. Ellingboe” owned 80 acres in Section 19. The parcel was the east half of the northeast quarter-section and was just north of the village of Dennison. His neighbors to the north and west were Prestegaards.

      He registered for the draft on September 12, 1918, in Red Wing as Thrond Ellingboe of Dennison. He was born on January 2, 1873. He is a self-employed farmer in Dennison. His nearest relative is Mrs. Thrond Ellingboe of Dennison. He is described as of medium height and build with blue eyes and light brown hair.

      In the 1920 census he is a farmer living in Dennison, Goodhue County.

      He is listed in “The Valdris Book”, a history of the Valdris Samband published in 1920 (available on Google Books), as “Thrond I Ellingboe Dennison Minn.” His entry shows that he was a member of the Samband between 1904 and 1906.

      In the 1930 census, he is Thrond Elingboe, a farmer in Dennison. Living with him are his wife Emma and their children Iver and Arthur.

      His will is listed in the Goodhue County Will Records, Volume 089 1945-1952, for the will year 1946.

      He was first buried at Vang Cemetery on 20 Oct 1945. Later, he was moved to Oaklawn where he and Ambjor share a gravestone.
