A Jahr Family history book on the Descendents of Torstein & Mari Jahr was compiled and written and published by James Norskog. This family history book was printed in 1965 by Westwood Blueprint Co. and bound by Bookbinders Co. in Los Angeles, CA. The book includes family trees, a brief history, and lists of II, III and IV generation descendants, as well as an index of family names.
As described in a brief Torsten Jahr Family history in the 1976 book "Yesteryears in Traill, Vol. I", Torsten and Mari Jahr came to America with three children in 1873, with five older children having arrived in America earlier. Torstein and Mari, and children, eventually settled in Traill County in the late 1870s along the Goose River, northwest of what became the railway town of Hill City or Hillsboro in 1881.Acquisition
