Erickson - Kjebekk - Hovstad Photo Album
Album Links
Mother and I scanned a collection of photos that she had gathered over the years including
those from Dad’s folks. She was so helpful in being able to identify, people, places, events,
etc. Mother and I worked on the text descriptions together. It is important to Mother that
these photos are shared with family and friends. When describing some of the photos, I
may refer to Allen and Frances as "Mother" or “Dad”
This is a work in progress so I continue to make corrections or add text as it becomes
available.

larger than 4" x 6". In some cases, you may go as large as 5x7. Using a larger photo paper
size may result in a grainy print.

This photo was most likely taken in 1946 when
Tom made his first trip back to Norway after
immigrating to the United States in 1910. It appears

pictured.
