He was 10 year when his parents died.

Candice Soine skriver: "Ole hired out to a very rough and unkind woodcutter. If he could not meet the quota for the day, he was not permitted to have supper. When he was 13 years old he cut his finger with an axe while he was chopping wood. It was cut so badly that only a small portion of flesh kept it from falling off. He put the two ends together as best he could, and bandaged the finger with strips of cloth. He did all of the aftercare himself and eventually, the cut healed and his finger remained stiff and crooked, but somewhat useful. Ole went from Michigan to Dana County in Wisconsin and was there from 1857-1869. Then he went to Iowa until 1862 and finally to Goodhue County in Minnesota in 1862. Ole enlisted in the Union Army at the age of 19 on December 12, 1863 and was mustered out on December 2, 1865. On January 15, 1869 Ole married Gertrude (Gjertrud) Elton and they had eight children. Gertrude died 21 September 1885 and Ole remarried in 1886. His second wife was Sigrid Loe Haugen who was a widow with three children. Ole and Sigrid had two children. Ole died on 13 March 1924. He was a naturalized citizen and he owned a farm, but could not speak English in 1900."


Fra "The Lutefisk connection" Vol 3 Winter 1999: A word about Ole Christopherson's service record - We have an interview of Ole Soine by his stepgrandson, Tyler Soine, that places Ole's unit at Gettysburg, but that is not so. Ole's unit, the 2nd Minn. Cavalry, was fighting Sioux Indians unti l 1866 and was nowhere near Gettysburg. The history of the 2nd Cavalry is great stuff and reads like a script for a John Ford Flick!

Notes:

Hun vokste opp hos onkelen Knut Ivarson Eltun på Bøkko under Ellingbø. I 1865 er hun nevnt som pleiedatter der. Derfor kalles hun også Ellingbø og noen ganger Bøkko og noen ganger Haugen fordi hun var gift til Haugen da hun dro til USA. De tok med seg de to små barne Anne og Ola da de dro til USA. Da Torstein døde i 1879, var hun alene med barne an stund før hun giftet seg igjen med Ole Christophersen Soine.

I 1900 kunne hun ikke snakke engelsk. I andre ekteskap med Ole, hadde hun fire barn Thorstein som døde i 1924. (han var gift og hadde bto barn: Ole og sigurd), Thea (Trolina/Theolina)(1889-) Martin(1892-) og Olaf.
