3. Death - obit for Johannes; no obit index on the Camwood Obit Project for Caroline (cemetery listing provides year of death only)
+++ note that there are a number of Caroline's children listed in the Camwood Obit Project (also note: Carroll Oliver "Ole" Olson, born 20 July 1920 in Fergus Falls, MN and died 27 Feb 1988 ??? -- the surname Carroll is associated with Esten Olson Narjord family --- 22 July 2009 - a few days earlier while searching, I came across the Carroll surname, but on 22 July, I couldn't find the connection +++ when researching the obits under the Camwood Obit Project - check this one out)
