NOTES: Nils' parents were Ditev Ephraim Jaeger (1802-1866, d. in Norway) and

NOTES: Nils was the first postmaster of Minneota, Minn. (D-012 p.11)
The original settlement, now called Minneota, was called 'Pumpa',
Norwegian for 'pump'. The Chicago Northwestern trains stopped to take
on water. Nils had come from Norway and had had a better education than
most of the pioneers. His father was a preacher. Nils had the first
store and post office in Minneota. The post office was established in
1871 and the town took on the name, Norland, reason not known but might
have been because so many Norwegians living in the area had emmigrated
from Norland, Norway. Because mail destined for Norseland often ended
up in Norland and mail to Norland would often be sent to Norseland, the
Post Office Department notified Nils Jager that it would be necessary
to change the name of the town. An election was held and the name that
got the most votes was 'Jagersville'. However, a certain resident of
town, named Doc Seals had contacted the Senator from Minnesota, H. B.
Strait and he had was influential in having the town named Minneota.
The day after the local election, Nils Jager recieved notice from the
Post Office Department that the town had been named Minneota. (D-012
p.11)
Jeanne (Jaeger) Horsey (in documentation attached to MRIN-547) explains
that the origional spelling in Norway was Nils Winther LUTH-JAEGER with
a hyphen. Reason: When Nils' parents, Ditlev LUTH and his wife,
Claudine Marie WINTHER died in June and August 1774, Nils was adopted
by Ephraim JEAGER and JAEGER was added to Nils' name. Ephram Jaeger
was an unmarried relative, a pastor. It followed that the first Nils
Winther Lars-Jaeger named his son Ditlev Ephraim Jaeger (dropping the
LUTH). Then Ditlev's son was named Nils Winther Luth Jaeger and he
named his son Ditlev Ephraim Jaeger (Jeanne [Jaeger] Horsey's uncle)
