Person:Emanuel Almquist (1)

TO DO: Description: Almquist Emanuel-find land papers Category: Land Deed Local: Court House, Balsam Lake, Polk, Wisconsin, USA Date: 22 May 2004 Status: Open Type: 0 Priority: 8 Repository:

BLM GLO records I know that Emanuel was in Wisconsin as early as 1875 for he is found on that years census done by Wisconsin state. He is in the town of Luck with his brother John. John emigrated in 1870 so perhaps Emanuel came with him and I have just not found his record.

   Emanual head (56), Anna wife (45), John son (17), Carl son (16), Axel son (13), Victor son (7) and Clara daughter (4). all children were born in Wisc. Emanual and Anna were born in Sweden. Their parents also. States that Anna had 9 children but only 2 were living (which does not make sense since 5 children were listed here). Makes me wonder if these were all her children. Emanual was married 6 years and Anna listed 17 but it was crossed out to 6 years. Perhaps that is how long she had been married to Emanual and his brother Gustaf, who died, combined. Emanual immigrated 1869. # of years in US lists 81-impossible. Na
   He is a farmer she is a housewife, John was a laborer. All could read and write English except Clara. All could speak English except Clara and Anna.

   DOB 26 Sept. 1844, he was 80 years old. Occ. is listed as a retired farmer. He is widowed. Father & Mother is unknown, both born in Sweden as was Emanuel. Informant is Mrs. Elmer Lunde (Clara) of Lewis, Wisconsin. Cause is Lober Pneumonia with influenza.
   He was buried 3 Dec. 1924 in Lundeen Cemetery in Luck. Listed as undertaker is N. Edling.

   line 24 E. Almquist is listed with 5 males and 2 females. 4 born in the US. Reference number: CNWI052 Verified: YES

   For the Sund family I would guess the males would be Louis, Lester, Walter and 3 hired hands. The females might be Frieda, Lillie, Hazel and 1 hired hand. Louis C. Sund was a man of money.
   
   For the Almquist family I would guess the males would be Emanuel, John, Carl, Axell & G. Victor. Females are Tessie and Anna. It states 4 born in the US-that would be John, Carl, Axell and G. Victor.

   E. Almquist with 5 males 2 females.
