According to another cemetery database, Guri Enderson (1820-1910), buried
at East St. Olaf Cemetery, Rock Dell Twp, Olmsted County was the wife of Ole
Enderson (1829-1908); and they did have a son, Endre/Andrew, born 1860 in
Norway, died in 1909. This family matches the 1900 Rock Dell census. They
also used the spelling "Endreson," and my hunch is they were from Gol,
Buskerud.

As far as the Gertrude Anderson buried at "Ressnick" (like Hank said,
Ressnick doesn't exist!), could that just be a terrible transcription of the town
"Pennock" where Lars was buried?!!
