Henry Alfred Gorder retired in 1974 as Chicago Vicepresident for Stone and Webster
Securities Corp. He was member of the Nordmennenes Singing Society,the sons of
Norway and th Bond Club of Chicago. He served over 20 years on the Governing Board
of Skaalen Home in Stoughton. Mooving to Stoughton in 1996.

My question:

Mrs Laura Lee India Gorder Martin when and where was she born and died?
She have to be born after 1941. She died before her father died?

Fant Elysine og hennes familie ganske lett i folketellingen for 1930. Tar resten på engelsk av hensyn til engelsktalende lesere på forumet.

1930 United States Federal Census
Name: Elysine V Pedersen
Home in 1930: Chicago, Cook, Illinois
Age: 17
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1913
Relation to Head of House: Daughter
Father's Name: John M
Mother's Name: Laura T
Parents' birthplace: View Image
Neighbors: View others on page
Household Members: Name Age
John M Pedersen 59
Laura T Pedersen 47
Marshall E Pedersen 24
Muriel W Pedersen 22
John M Pedersen 20
Elysine V Pedersen 17

John M. is born in Norway, all the other members of the family are born in Illinois.
Lauras parents are both born in Norway.

Wenche: It seems you are in the same situation as I am with many unknown relatives in the US. Therefore I will surely reccomend you a subsription to ancestry.com or a similar service.

Hi Wenche - are you a relative of John M. Pedersen from Kristiansund, father of Elysine Virginia Pedersen Gorder?
He is my grandfather and she is my aunt and she is alive and still living in Stoughton at a retirement place called Skalen and i just spoke with her and she is doing fine @ 97!
Please contact outside this forum at audrey_pedersen@netscape.com
I would very much like to contact you as i am planning a trip to Kristiansund N. and would like to check on relatives up there.
Thanks much
Audrey
