  Notes	In the 1910 Norwegian census, as Helge Olsen Skøre, he was living on Skøre 34/1 with his mother and his siblings. In the 1916 Minneapolis city directory, he is Harry Ellingboe, a baker for Excelsior Baking Co., residing at the Hansons’ home (Harry’s aunt) at 4428 44th Avenue S. Also living at that same address was Ollie Ellingboe, a machinist at Excelsior Baking Co., who may be Harry’s brother Tollef (Tollie?). Listed elsewhere in the 1916 directory is Ole Ellingboe, the plumber (#6236), another of Harry’s brothers, who will eventually also come to live with the Hansons by the time of the 1920 census. Harry registered for the draft on September 12, 1918, in Grand Rapids. He was born in Norway apparently. He listed his nearest relative as Ole Ellingboe (see #6236). Harry was a crane operator and electrician with the Olson (or Oliver) Iron Mining Company of Coleraine, Itasca County. Harry was described as of medium height and build with blue eyes and dark hair. In the 1920 census, Harry (as “Illenbo”) is a lodger with the Gullick and Mary Bakken (his sister) family at 757 8th Avenue South in Minneapolis. Harry came to the U.S. in 1916 and is a bookkeeper at a bank. In the 1920 Minneapolis city directory, he is Harry Ellingboe, bookkeeper for the Harriet State Bank. He rooms at 757 8th Avenue S. In the 1920 directory, he is still bookkeeper for the Harriet State Bank. He lives at 615 S 9th. In the 1923 St. Paul city directory, he is a bookkeeper for Bannon’s. He lives at 229 Spruce. In the 1924 St. Paul directory, he is still a bookkeeper for Bannon’s Dept. Store. He lives at 198 E 10th. In the 1930 census, Harry is a baker in Minneapolis. He is a boarder with the Reuben Ericson family. He came to the U.S. in 1916. In the 1930 Minneapolis city directory, he is Harry O Ellingboe, a helper at Paramount Pies Inc. He resides at 718 E 17th. That is, indeed, the address for Reuben R and Mabel Ericson. Reuben is a plumber for Bjorkman Bros. He is included in the 1931 and 1932 St. Paul city directories as a helper for Paramount Pies Inc. He resides in Minneapolis. In the 1932 Minneapolis city directory, he is a cook residing at 718 E 17th Street. The 1933 St. Paul city directory lists him as a cook for Paramount Pies Inc. He resides in Minneapolis. In the 1935 St. Paul city directory lists him as a fruit cook for Paramount Pies. He resides in Minneapolis. In the 1937 Duluth city directory, he is a cleaner for N D Bort. He resides at 16 W 2nd. In the 1940 census, he lived in Minneapolis as Harry Ellingboe, a 42 year-old single man born in Norway and having had two years of high school. He had lived in Duluth five years earlier. His occupation was bakers helper in a restaurant. He had earned $135 in 1939. He registered for the draft on 14 Feb 1942 in Minneapolis. He worked for George Lundeen of Dassel, Minnesota. In the 1948 Minneapolis city directory, he was Harry O Ellingboe, a factory worker for Bemis. He resided at 104 Washington Avenue S. He may have been married to #10778 although his death certificate says that he never married. (The Vang bygdebok says that he was married.) The informant for his death certificate was Mrs. Alice Schmitz of 4946 Sherman in Minneapolis. Harry was not a veteran. He died of pulmonary edema and pneumonia. He worked at Bemus Brothers. His usual residence at the time of death was Cook Home of Rice Lake Road, Duluth, which wouldn’t seem to be the address of St. Mary’s Hospital. The SSDI says last residence was Minneapolis. His obituary was published on p. 11A:1 of the September 14, 1977, edition of the Duluth News-Tribune: Harry O. Ellingboe, 80, Cook Home, died Sunday in a Duluth hospital. He was born in Norway and came to Duluth in 1962 from Minneapolis. He was a retired laborer. Surviving is a niece, Alice Schmitz, Minneapolis.
