uncle, visited the Nyhus home in North Dakota when he was there visiting his
brother, Elling, who lived near Buxton, ND. Berthold returned to his Moscow
Township, Freeborn County, MN, home with a picture of Bertha and Erick and the
15 children. Also, a picture of Bertha's grandparents, John T. and Bertha Stoa
were among th old family pictures of the Eric Nyhus family. Bertha's cousins
Emma Stoa Lunde and Cora Stoa live in Moscow township and Cora supplied the
