I'm trying to find information on my maternal grandfather Frank Adolph Christianson born 8/27/1882 in Iowa. According to 1910 Federal census his father born in Germany and mother in Iowa (but 1930 census says she was born in Illinois). Married Lela Marion Powers 11/13/1907 (or possibly same date but 1906) in Tama. According to Lela's written history, she met Frank in Chelsea 1905 or 1906, he was learning the lumberyard business, later managed a lumberyard in Tama County subsequently other lumberyards in Grace City, ND and Ruthven, IA. Frank died 9/30/1932 I think in Palo Alto County Iowa, buried Oak Hill Cemetery in Tama. I have a fair amount of information on my grandmother Lela Powers Christianson (a school teacher in various Tama County schools) but nothing more than these dates for Frank. Thanks for any help!
