1. Guri Melby Ranum b. 1862

Note: There are four people by the name of Guri listed in this narrative: Guri Knudsdotter Melby Ranum herself, her mother Guri Kristensdotter Melby, her aunt Guri Kristensdotter Melby Opdahl, and her mother-in-law Guri Gulbrandsdotter Ranum.

Guri, also known as Julia, was the first child born to Knud and Guri Melby on February 17, 1862. She grew up on the Melby farm in Rogne, Øystre Slidre, Valdres, Norway and attended the Rogne school and church. In 1881 when she was 19 years old, her parents sold the Melby farm and the whole family emigrated from Norway to the USA, Goodhue County, Minnesota. In 1884, her parents moved to Griggs County North Dakota where they filed on a homestead there, but Guri did not go there. Instead, she went to live in Lyon County in southwestern Minnesota where her aunt Guri Melby Opdahl lived with husband Anders Opdahl.

Ole was born September 10, 1858 in Stokkebryn, North Aurdal, Valdres, Norway. He came to the USA, southwest Minnesota in 1875. Here is an account passed down in the Ranum family about Ole: Ole was in Northfied MN on September 6, 1876 when the James Gang, including Frank, Jesse, three younger brothers, and three others, attempted to rob the First National Bank. During the shootout, a bank teller, a bystander, and a gang member were killed. Ole dived into a rain barrel. A few days later, the three younger brothers were captured, the two other gang members were killed, and Frank and Jesse escaped. Ole's parents had a farm near Ghent MN in Lyon County. Records show that the deed of 160 acres of land owned by his parents, Juel O Ranum and Guri (Julia) Gulbransdotter, was transferred to Ole in 1884. So it was here were Guri and Ole met each other and on May 30, 1885 they married at Minneota MN located in Lyon County. Guri and Ole farmed at Ghent MN Lyon County and it was here that several of their children were born: George Juel 1886, Konrad Oscar 1887 known as Oscar, and Emil Gerhard 1890. The rest of their children were also born in Minnesota: Ida Rosetta 1892, Clara Genette born 1894 at Cottonwood, and Gladys Oline born 1899 at Madison. Ida died in 1895 while they were still living in Minnesota.

Ole and Guri Ranum and family moved to Manfred by 1900 or before the summer of 1901, because school records for June and July of 1901 indicate their children Oscar and Clara attended school number 3 of Manfred Township. Konrad Oscar was confirmed at Vang Lutheran Church in 1903, and then died June 5, 1906 and is buried at Vang Lutheran Cemetery. It was also in 1906 that Ole and Guri Ranum and family joined as members of Vang Lutheran Church. Their daughter Clara was confirmed in 1909 and daughter Gladys in 1913. George, Emil, Clara, and Gladys went on to have descendants.

Ole J Ranum died March 26, 1938 and Guri M died October 22, 1938. Ole's parents had also come to Manfred in their old age, joining Vang Lutheran in 1907. His father Juel died June 25, 1916 and his mother Guri died July 17, 1933. The 1910 census shows that Juel and Guri Ranum were living with their son Ole and family.

Knute, also known as K. K. Melby, was the fourth child born to Knut and Guri Melby on November 10, 1870. During his childhood, he lived on the Melby farm in Rogne, Øystre Slidre, Valdres, Norway and attended the Rogne school and church. In 1881 when he was 101/2 years old, his parents sold the Melby farm and the whole family emigrated from Norway to Goodhue County, Minnesota. In 1884, his parents moved to Griggs County North Dakota where they filed on a homestead, and in 1887 they moved to Foster County.

By this time Knute was a young man, ready to go on his own. He went north to Ramsey County ND where he was in the grain business at Souris and Edmore. Later he became a representative for Hixson and Grannon Grain Co. His job took him to Nebraska, and it is here that he met and married Josephine Jurgensen in 1896 at Omaha. Two children were born to them there: Beatrice Melby 1897 and June 1900. Later, Knute and his family moved to North Dakota first living in Manfred for awhile, before settling at Grand Forks. It was at Grand Forks that Knute worked for the Tenney company, auditing the books for elevators in the region which included the elevators at Manfred ND. One of the elevator managers in Manfred at that time was Paulson. These frequent job-related visits to Manfred gave Knute the opportunity to visit his parents and others at Manfred. It is remembered that he would have coffee with folks during his stops.

During the years living at Grand Forks, Knute was an active member of the Presbyterian Church in Grand Forks, and also the Masonic Lodge, Sons of Norway, and the Union of Commercial Travelers.

Ole and Nellie joined with others in the family in the westward move to Wells County by filing on a homestead on section 11 of West Norway Township, about 10 miles northeast of Manfred. They became members of Vang Lutheran Church in 1895, and Ole served at a Deacon beginning in 1896. The nice life they had begun together was shortlived, when Ole learned that he was terminally ill. He then longed to return to Norway to spend his final days, so Ole together with Nellie went back to Øystre Slidre where he then died on May 29, 1899. Nellie then notified her brother Ole K Melby of what had come to pass, and he departed for Norway with the mission of escorting Nellie back to North Dakota. The 1900 census indicates that Nellie went to live with her parents on their farm together with her sister Caroline and two brothers Martin and Oscar.

On December 29, 1901, Nellie married Olaf Wolding. Olaf was born in Iowa in 1871. And like so many others, he come to Wells County and homesteaded.

During his earliest years, he lived on the Melby farm in Rogne, Øystre Slidre, Valdres, Norway and attended Rogne church. In 1881 when he had just turned 4 years old, his parents sold the Melby farm and the whole family emigrated from Norway to Goodhue County, Minnesota. In 1884, his parents homesteaded to Griggs County, North Dakota, and in 1887 they moved to Foster County and farmed there for six years, and then in 1893 his parents moved again to the newly opened land of Manfred Township in Wells County.

Gilbert was too young to file on a homestead having just turned 16, but he was able to helped his parents start up their new farm. Gilbert was very musical and could play several instruments. With his great love of music it is very likely that he played with some of the local orchestra groups. It was at Manfred where Gilbert met Esther LeGrand. She was born September 7, 1873 in Skane, Gotland, Sweden, with the given name of Astrid Hildegard LeGrand, to Joseph Alfred LeGrand and Anna Kristina Lindstrom.

Gilbert and Esther were married on December 11, 1895 at Manfred. Gilbert and Esther bought the land located in section 30 of Manfred Township that had been in the LeGrand famly. Sometime during these years at Manfred, Gilbert was working in one of the elevators. Due to an accident while employed there, he lost a foot but didn't let this hold him back in any way. With the help of an artificial foot he managed very well, as if he had two feet. Few even realized that he had an artificial foot, having only a slight limp.

Gilbert and Esther moved to Kenmare in 1904, to Coteau in 1909, then to Bowbells, and lastly to a farm west of Bowbells. Thirteen children were born to them: Cecelia 1896, Carlton 1897, Arthur 1899, Marion 1900, Ida 1901, Elmer 1902, Gordon 1904, Morris 1906, Evelyn 1907, Raymond 1909, Earl 1911, Alice 1913, Irene 1916.

In 1893, her parents moved to the newly opened land of Manfred Township in Wells County where she completed her schooling in 1896 at age 16.

Arvid Satterberg, an avid horseman, and his brother John filed on homesteads in Fram Township bordering Manfred Township to the north. Arvid's land was in section 26, and in this way Arvid and Mary had the opportunity to meet through living in the same community. They were married around the turn of the century at Manfred and farmed for some years in Fram Township. It is very interesting to note that Arvid and Mary's land was located in the next section north from Olaf Wolding, who later married Mary's sister Nellie. Olaf and Nellie moved further west to Hillsdale Township and started up a new farm there.

Six children were born to Mary and Arvid: Roy, Elmer 1902, Arvid 1904, Ruby 1905, Lillian 1907, Marion 1909. Five children have descendents. Marion did not have any children.

Caroline Melby Anderson

Knud and Guri Melby, together with their seven children had emigrated from Rogne, Øystre Slidre, Valdres, Norway in 1881. They destination was Goodhue County Minnesota where they stayed for 3 years while they were gaining their bearing in this ne w land. Then in 1884 they moved to Griggs County North Dakota settling on their first homestead. It is likely that Knud with the help of his older children quickly built a sod house, then broke some of the land, and planted seed that they had brou ght with them from MN. Then on September 3rd of that year, their eighth child Caroline, known as Lena, was born. In 1887, the family moved a little further west to Foster County North Dakota. It was here that her father and older brother Ole helpe d establish the Melby School District in 1888 where she attended most of her grade school years. In 1893, her parents moved to the newly opened land of Manfred Township in Wells County where she completed her schooling, afterwhich she taught schoo l for a few years.

Caroline's future husband, Olaf Anderson was born in Norway in 1877. His last name there was Boe. His father's first was Anders, so Olav took the name Anderson. In 1897, he had settled in Hillsdale Township located in the northwest corner of Well s County. Manfred was a booming town with much railroad traffic, and an ideal place to start a livery. In 1900 he moved to Manfed, and built a large barn to establish a livery and feed stable, and started up a dray service to haul goods to and fro m the railroad. He also started up an ice business in the winter with a crew of several men, cutting ice from the James River and shipping it by train.

Caroline was active in the Vang Ladies Aid, cooked in the cook cars for threshing, and was well known for her yard filled with beautiful flowers.

In 1893, his parents moved to the newly opened land of Manfred Township in Wells County where he completed his schooling.

Raised on a farm, Martin was well acquainted with field work and chores, and helped with the harvest too, all of which would serve him well in later years when he had his own farm and also was the owner/operator of a threshing rig which he ran for many years. Martin also had early training in business by working for his uncle, C.C. Melby for 10 years. In 1918 he served as a mail carrier, and in 1919 he bought into the Ford garage in Manfred retaining this until 1939.

Notes:

Oscar J Melby

Oscar, also known as O.J. Melby, was the tenth child born to Knud and Guri Melby on March 7, 1890 while they were living in Foster County. The crops were poor during that time. However, the Sioux railroad track was being laid through North Dakot a and so a source of income was possible for the folks. So, Knut and all his neighbors went to work for the railroad, building the track. It was through this work that they learned of the new land opening up further west in Wells County. Knud wa s impressed with the land and filed on section 8 in Manfred Township. In 1894 when Oscar was 4 years old, his family and other families moved in a caravan, herding their animals and hauling their belongings on wagons.

Oscar took all his schooling in Manfred Township. He became well-versed in farming having worked side by side with his father and older brothers through the years. His parents retired in 1911, and Oscar took over farming his father's land. He marr ied Bertha Nordtorp on July 10, 1910 in Millet Alberta Canada. Bertha was born May 12, 1891 in Øystre Slidre, Valdres, Norway to Gullik and Ragnhild Nordtorp. They had first immigrated to the USA in 1892 on Bertha's 1st birthday, but returne d to Norway in 1899, only to return again in 1906 on her 15th birthday. They settled both times in Manfred, and it was there that Oscar and Bertha became acquainted. They became engaged in 1908, but her parents moved to Canada and they needed he r help. Oscar and Bertha kept in touch and after the crops were planted in 1910, Oscar went to Canada for his bride.

In 1914, Oscar and Bertha bought land in section 30 of Manfred Township which had been passed from brother to brother Gilbert, then Chris, then Ole, and then finally to Oscar. Here they lived the rest of their lives. They owned and operated a threshing rig for 22 years. Oscar was very musical having a beautiful high tenor voice, and played the clarinet and violin. They were both very active in Vang Lutheran Church, and Sons of Norway, and other offices in th e community. Born to them were eight children: Cora 1912, Roy 1916, Ruth 1919, Muriel 1921, Orlien 1924, Kenneth 1925, Gene 1928, Ethel 1931. Oscar died February 16, 1954, and Bertha died November 11, 1985. Both are buried at Manfred.

Notes:

Hallvard Skattebu Vennskap er ein overmåte verdfull ting for oss menneske, ein trivselsfaktor som det er vanskeleg å leva forutan. Vennskap med gode menneske berikar livet vårt og hjelper ass gjennom sorg og sjukdom og anna motgang vi matte møte i livet. Hallvard Skattebu, som gjekk bort nå siste haust, var ein god venn for mange. Han var så glad i menneske, han Hallvard - og med sin opne og ueigennyttige mate å vera på, vart ban ein dyrkar av vennskapet. Vi som fekk nyte godt av dette - vi har så mykje å takke han for. Ei mengd med fine minne bar vi fått med oss, - fra samvrer i ungdomsåra - i skibakkane - på idrettsplassen - i ungdomslaget - fra alle fine turar, ikkje minst i fjellet som han var sa glad i. Vi hugsar alle påskedagane vi va r i lag fram gjennom åra, dei gode kveldane i hytta, der han Hallvard med sin mjuke og lyriske trekkspelmusikk gav så mange fine tonar lll hygga. Ein annan møtestad var snikkarverkstaden hans, der vi så ofte måtte innom for å få hjelp av håndverkaren Hallvard med det gode handlaget Kanskje fekk vi samstundes beundre eit nytt skap ban hadde under arbeid eller fekk lytte tll ei engasjert sklldring av den siste fjellturen hans - og så fekk vi gjerne attpå eit par av desse historiene han alltid hadde på lager og som glitra av lun humor. Vi er takksame for alle gongene han kom innom oss til ein prat og for alle gongene vi sjølve fekk koma til Alvheim, denne fine heimen han hadde skapt saman med kona og bestevenen Alfhild. I denne heimen fan vi alltid gjestfriheit og hygge - og rolla som vert den beherska han Hallvard betre enn dei fleste Han var så open og sosial som person, at alle måtte trivast i lag med ham. Han var elles ei n mann med ei uvanleg sinnsro og eit uoppsliteleg humør kva så livet baud på av utfordringar. Han var vidare svært glad i sang og musikk og i alt som var vakkert og harmonisk for auga. Og ute i naturen - og da særleg i fjellet, møtte han stadig nye opplevingar som berika livet hans. Han var på mange måtar ein kunstnarnatur med eit var t og ope sinn for så mangt. Eit anna særkjenne med han Hallvard var denne unike arbeidsgleda som fylgde han nesten usvekka heilt til den siste grensa. Han var eit menneske som var seg sjølv, som gledde seg over livet og ville alle vel. Vi kjem til å sakna han mykje. Knut Lauvrud
