BJORDAHL, BJORDAL, BREKKE posted by Jeanette Reiter on Thursday, May 3, 2001

I am looking for relations to Randi BREKKE. I don't know if she or her family were ever in this part of Minnesota, I was told by my grandmother that Randi's family was from MN. I have found several Brekke's that were buried in the North Grove Cemetery, Cannon City Township, Rice Co, MN. Randi BREKKE married Ole Bjordahl. It is believed that they had 14 children; many or most were born in South Dakota. Some dropped the "h" in their last name - Bjordal. Their daughter Oline (Lena) Bjordahl was my great great grandmother. She died rather young due to tuberculosis - leaving 3 young children; Wilma 9, Frances 7 and Roy 5. If you have any leads, please email me Jeanette at genealogyjr@hotmail.com Thank you!
