DigitalContext
Ed and Margaret Stuart, both originally from New Richland, were married in Cambridge, Massachusetts where Ed was stationed prior to his being sent overseas during World War II. Margaret returned to New Richland and taught in local schools until Ed returned after the war. They then moved to St. Paul where Ed went to college, and eventually to Stillwater where they raised their family. Margaret Stuart's oral history interview is available on line, accession #OH.50. Her written account and genealogy is located in the Johnson Family File at the WCHS Bailey-Lewer Research Library and details her life growing up in New Richland in the 1920s and 1930s. Margaret's family is traced back to Norway in her ancestor chart; family names include her parents: George Johnson and Minnie Haugan and grandparents: Carl Joachim Johnson, Tina Sunde Johnson, Martin Haugan, Mathea Berg, and great-grandparents: Berndt Johnson, Anna Thoreson, Ole Sunne, Anna Sorensdatter, Hans Haugan, Aase Olsdatter, Andrew Berg and Ingeborg Stensrud.Cataloged By
