9. | Anna Dahl (4.Hans2, 1.Hans1) was born on 2 Mar 1879 in Lucas, Lyon, Minnesota, United States; was christened in 1879 in Cottonwood, Lyon, Minnesota, United States; died on 8 Jan 1979 in St. Paul, Ramsey, Minnesota, United States; was buried on 12 Jan 1979 in St. Paul, Ramsey, Minnesota, United States. Notes:
!STATUS: CAP
BIRTH: At home, on the family homestead in Lucas Township near Cottonwood.
BAPTISM: Easter Sunday, what is now the English Lutheran Church, Cottonwood.
BURIAL: Roselawn Cemetery.
EDUCATION: Luther Normal School (now Augustana College), Sioux Falls, South
Dakota, class 1900. It was here, at a basket social, that she met
her husband to be, Helge M. Aanestad, from Sherman, South
Dakota. An interesting finding from the 1900 census (CA-001 and
CA-002), taken June 1900, was that Anna's occupation was listed as
`at school' and Helge's was `works at home'. Helge's sister, Alma,
was listed as living as a boarder at that time with Anna's mother,
Sara. How did Alma come to board with Sara? Did Alma introduce
Helge to Anna?
RELIGION: Lutheran.
OCCUPATION: Milton Hackett, Anna's nephew writes, "their service was truly a
partnership affair, with Helge preaching and both of them teaching,
counseling, and leading and assisting in the numerous church-
centered affairs . . . musicals, festivals, and societies.
Ranking next in importance to church and family to Anna and
Helge, were interests in music and education. These interests they
imparted to their children. Somehow, on the less than adequate
resources available to a country preacher in the depression days,
they managed to see that all eight children attended college.
Life in a country parish on the prairie is aptly described by
the title of Anna's memoir. 'Chuckles and Tears'". (ORWOLL DOC 'A')
Anna was the N.D. District Historian of the Women's Missionary
Federation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church.
NOTES: Anna and Helge were married 76 years. He died 2 days after his 100th
birthday. She died just 2 months before reaching her 100th
birthday.
PROBLEM: A-035 lists name with middle initial, Anna C. Dahl.
Anna married Rev. Helge Martinus Aanestad on 26 Jun 1901 in Cottonwood, Lyon, Minnesota, United States. Helge (son of Helge Helgessen Aanestad and Ragnhild Gunderson Korsgarn) was born on 14 Jul 1877 in Claremont, Clayton, Iowa, United States; died on 16 Jul 1977 in Detroit Lakes, Becker, Minnesota, United States; was buried on 20 Jul 1977 in St. Paul, Ramsey, Minnesota, United States.

and no longer physically able to help the Sissons, she joined her son
Milton and family at Arlington. Va., until her death in 1969.

OCCUPATION: Schoolteacher, newswriter, editor. She worked with her husband
and two sons in their family owned newspaper business and published
the Cottonwood Current. Health problems affecting her
husband, Bill, and her two sons, increasingly drained their finances and
placed a heavier burdon on Mabel, both at the newspaper and caring for
her family. Milton Hackett writes, ". . . Mabel Dahl Sisson died,
ostensibly of a stroke. Her life had the overtones of a Greek tragedy.
Attractive, intelligent, and talented, seemingly with everything going
for her, she died of hard work and a broken heart, grieving for the
future of her crippled (muscular dystophy) boys. Her line is extinct."

!BIRTH: On the family homestead in Lucas Township near Cottonwood.
EDUCATION: Luther College, Decorah, Iowa; Luther Seminary, St. Paul, MN.
OCCUPATION: Singer, voice teacher, music director (vocal).
NOTES: From the (ORWOLL DOC 'A') we find that 'Hib', as he was known,
apparantly following the custom of many Norwegian families encouraging
one son to enter the ministry, attended and completed Luther Seminary
in St Paul, Minnesota but was not destined, apparantly, to be a
minister. While attending the Seminary, two daughters were born to
Hib and Ada: Sylvia in 1917 and June in 1919. Hib had a fine tenor
voice and after the Seminary went to Milan, Italy to study voice and
prepare for a career in opera. However, a career in opera eluded him
and he spent his life as a teacher of voice and a coach, dividing his
time between the Minneapolis College of Music, Gustavus Adolphus College
at St. Peter, and Concordia College at Moorhead, Minnesota. Hib Dahl
was, perhaps, a bit of a character. He had a zest for life and a love
for people . . . wherever his life touched others it added "a touch of
class". See (ORWOLL DOC 'A') for more details.

14. | Clarence Peder Dahl (4.Hans2, 1.Hans1) was born on 12 Mar 1890 in Lucas, Lyon, Minnesota, United States; died on 16 Apr 1936 in Canby, Yellow Medicine, Minnesota, United States; was buried in English Lutheran Cem, Cottonwood, Lyon, Minnesota, United States. Notes:
!BIRTH: Clarence Peder Dahl may have been christened Peder Clarence Dahl.
Born on the family farm in Lucas Township near Cottonwood.
PROBLEM: D-040 and (O-12: Rec 62) lists it Peder Clarence.
MARRIAGE: Married his childhood sweetheart, Helen Bly.
OCCUPATION: Chiropracter.
NOTES: At age 22, he and Helen moved to Davenport, Iowa and both studied to
become chiropracters. Their first child was born the following year.
In 1917 Dr. Dahl began his first chiropactic practice, in Cottonwood,
and was occassionally assisted by his wife, Dr. Helen Dahl. In addition
to involvement in civic affairs, he was a good athelete and played
baseball and also was an acomplished golfer. His interest in music led
him to sing in the Lutheran church choir and direct the town band for
many years. During the depression, patients could no longer pay a set
fee for services and Clarence continued to help his clients for a
reduced, fee and in many cases, no fee at all. To manage during these
times he opened a second office one or two nights a week in Granite
Falls but even so the house had to be sold and the family moved into
rented quarters. Somehow, during this time he managed to scrape up
enough money to send Syble to college. In March, 1934, at the request
of some citizens of Canby, Clarence moved to Canby and prospects for the
future were bright. But on April 16, 1936, at the age of 46, Clarence
suddenly died from a heart attach. In Cottonwood, where Clarence was
a fovorite son, his obituary captured their feeling: "it can truly be
said of Dr. Dahl - here was a noble man. His passing is a great loss".
Helen remarried to Neil Kise, a recent widower and family friend. She
returned to Cottonwood where son Curtis completed his schooling and
took up his life's residence. Niel died in 1943. Helen lived on to
age 90 and is buried beside Clarence. (ORWOLL DOC 'A')

SO: Amy Van Hyning data pages
OCCUPATION: Schoolteacher (English)
BURIAL: Ridge Hill Memorial Park
NOTES: Kenneth Ernest Schilling (7. Selma4, 5.Hans3, 2.Hans2, 1 .Peder1) b. 1913-07-09, St. Paul, Ramsey Co, MN, occupation Schoolteacher (English), m. 1935-07-12, in Westfield, Chautauqua Co, NY, Florence Cecelia Randall, b 1914-02-27, Cleveland, Cuyahoga Co, OH, (daughter of George Henry Randall and Della Eliza Benson) occupation Homemaker, d. 1986-03-11, Clearwater, Pinellas Co, FL, buried: Ridge Hill Memorial Park, Lorain, OH. Kenneth died 1997-12-24, Elyria, Lorain Co, OH, buried: Ridge Hill Memorial Park, Lorain, OH Adopted by Ernest A Schilling and Selma Mw-tine DahI Schilling on 1925-09-04, with the consent of his mother Marguerite Kean. Kenneth had lived with Ernest and Selma since 1913-07-25, when he was only two weeks old, Kenneth's birth name was Kenneth Earnest Thompson. In the adoption, his name was changed to Kenneth Ernest Schilling.
The story about Selma Martine Dahl and Ernest Adolph Schilling is rather interesting. Before Ernest married Selma, he was married to a woman name Alice Louise Bunce. They had a daughter, Marguerite Mary Schilling. When Marguerite was very young, Ernest and Alice divorced and he married Selma. Now, when Mary was still a teenager, she became pregnant by an "Unknown" Thompson, and gave birth to a son, Kenneth Ernest Thompson. Since she was still living with Ernest and Selma, and since "Unknown" Thompson disappeared, she decided to let Ernest and Selma adopt her baby, changing the baby's name from Kenneth Ernest Thompson to Kenneth Ernest Schilling. This happened when baby Kenneth was only about two weeks old. So Kenneth was raised as the son of Ernest and Selma (in reality, they were his grandfather and step-grandmother), and he was always led to believe that Marguerite was his sister (actually his mother!). Kenneth didn't discover the truth about Marguerite and "Unknown" Thompson until much, much later in life (after he was a father himself).
Kenneth is my grandfather. So actually, Selma Dahl technically is not my great-grandmother. She is really my great-great-step-grandmother. In my family tree, I have two sets of lineages for my grandfather Kenneth. The first lists Ernest and Selma as his parents. The second lists Marguerite and "Unknown" Thompson as his parents, and the two lineages are obviously different from there on back. Since I have been unable to find out much information about Marguerite and her mother Alice Louise Bunce, I primarily refer to Ernest and Selma as my great-grandparents and use that lineage.
Confused? It took me forever to figure all of that out! It was a big controversy in the Schilling family for awhile, but now everyone knows about it.
I have a webpage at the following address, which includes pictures of Selma Dahl, Ernest Schilling and Kenneth Schilling. Here is the address:
