Biographical Sketch of Osage Lady
Whose Death We Mentioned in
Our Last Weeks Issue

Mrs. Martha Engebretson was born at Gran, Hadeland, Norway, May 7, 1858. In the spring of 1879 she came to America and located temporarily in Osage, Mitchell county, Iowa. In 1881 she entered into matrimony with Simon Engebretson. After their marriage they located on their farm in Cedar Township, Mitchell county. In 1915 she moved to her home in Osage where she continued to live until the time of her death.

In her wedlock six children were born, of these the following survive: Edward, Carl and Maud. Besides the above mentioned husband, the following sisters and brothers also survive: Mrs. Carl Odden, Mrs. Anton Ask, Ingeborg Halvor and Hans Dammen.

The departed had enjoyed good health until about six weeks ago, when Bright's disease and the usual complications of old age, became apparent, resulting in death Dec. 23.

Funeral services were held at the home last Friday at 10:30 and at the Osage Lutheran Church at 11 a.m., Rev. O. C. Myhre officiating, and interment was in the Rock Creek Lutheran cemetery.
