&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Biography/History: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Oddvar Høidal is a Norwegian-American historian. Born in 1938 in Ålesund, Høidal moved to San Diego with his parents in 1947. He studied at the University of Southern California. He received his Ph.D. degree in 1970 with a thesis about Vidkun Quisling's activities from 1933 to 1937. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Høidal is professor emeritus at San Diego State University. He has published several books, including “Quisling: A Study in Treason” and “Trotsky in Norway: Exile, 1935–1937.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Scope and Content: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;The collection includes Høidal’s academic correspondence at San Diego State University, speech given on July 22, 2011 after a horrific shooting in Norway, and reminiscences on his travels to the United States in 1946. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Biography/History: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Martin Annexstad (1882-1982) was born to John and Gulina Tollefson Annexstad at Norseland, Lake Prairie Township, Minnesota. John Annexstad (1851-1930) was born in Toten, Norway, and immigrated to the United States in 1871. Gulina Tollefson (1853-1947) immigrated to Norseland, Minnesota, as an infant with her parents, Johan and Nikoline Olsdatter Overn, in 1854. John and Gulina were married in 1877 and became the parents of Jens, Martin, Adolph, and Gustaf. They later adopted Grace and Eloise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;On June 12, 1912, Martin married Hattie Eldora Hanson (1890-1985), born at Norseland to Christian and Lena Tostenson Hanson. Christian (1864-1948) was born in Norseland to Norwegian immigrants Hans Christian and Johanna Hovland Hanson. Lena (1867-1942) was born at New Sweden, New Sweden Township, Minnesota, to Norwegian immigrants Erik and Kari Slettemoen Tostenson.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Martin and Hattie built Lake Park Farm, Section 29, just across the field from his parents' farm. They were the parents of three children: Martin John Christian (1914-1997); Estelle Geneva Leone (1917-1964); and Pearl Katherine (1920-2015).  In 1949, Martin John Christian married Eleanor Ann Schwartau (1925-1966) of Goodhue County.  Martin (who became known as Marney) and Eleanor raised the third generation on Lake Park Farm: Karen Ann (1950-), Mark Martin (1954-), and Grant Martin (1955-).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Scope and Content: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Photographs, scrapbooks, and correspondence related to the Annexstad family of Norseland, Minnesota. Most correspondence is sent to Karen Annexstad Humphrey. Three scrapbooks: 2 scrapbooks with cartoons about "Han Ola og Han Per" from the 1940s, in the Decorah-Posten, 1 scrapbook with political cards, mid-20th century and earlier.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;6&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Letters from home to Karen Annexstad at Minnesota Girls State, 1967&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;7-9&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Letters sent to Karen Annexstad, 1968-Summer 1969&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Many of the letters are from the family on Lake Park Farm and refer to farm activities, sports, extended family, 4-H, and Farm Bureau events, and general interest. Letters were sent to Karen while she was a student at the University of Minnesota. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;1-2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Letters sent to Karen Annexstad, 1969-Spring 1970&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Karen was in her sophomore year at the University of Minnesota. During this time, she worked co-announcing the daily University of Minnesota Farm Hour on KUOM Radio. There are also letters from her high school classmates who served in the Vietnam era. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;3&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Letters sent to Karen Annexstad, 1970 October-1971 May&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Karen was in her junior year at the Clovia Sorority House (a cooperative) in St. Paul. Many of the women grew up on farms or in small rural communities and had been members of 4-H, which was one of the requirements for the first half-century. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;4&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Letters sent to Karen Annexstad, 1972 January 6-1972 May 5&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Karen was in her senior year at the University of Minnesota. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;4&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Letters sent to Karen Annexstad, 1971-1972&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;During the summers of those years, Karen was an intern at the National 4-H Foundation in Chevy Chase, Maryland. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;4&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Letters sent to Karen Annexstad, 1972&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Biography/History: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Martin Annexstad (1882-1982) was born to John and Gulina Tollefson Annexstad at Norseland, Lake Prairie Township, Minnesota. John Annexstad (1851-1930) was born in Toten, Norway, and immigrated to the United States in 1871. Gulina Tollefson (1853-1947) immigrated to Norseland, Minnesota, as an infant with her parents, Johan and Nikoline Olsdatter Overn, in 1854. John and Gulina were married in 1877 and became the parents of Jens, Martin, Adolph, and Gustaf. They later adopted Grace and Eloise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;On June 12, 1912, Martin married Hattie Eldora Hanson (1890-1985), born at Norseland to Christian and Lena Tostenson Hanson. Christian (1864-1948) was born in Norseland to Norwegian immigrants Hans Christian and Johanna Hovland Hanson. Lena (1867-1942) was born at New Sweden, New Sweden Township, Minnesota, to Norwegian immigrants Erik and Kari Slettemoen Tostenson.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Martin and Hattie built Lake Park Farm, Section 29, just across the field from his parents' farm. They were the parents of three children: Martin John Christian (1914-1997); Estelle Geneva Leone (1917-1964); and Pearl Katherine (1920-2015).  In 1949, Martin John Christian married Eleanor Ann Schwartau (1925-1966) of Goodhue County.  Martin (who became known as Marney) and Eleanor raised the third generation on Lake Park Farm: Karen Ann (1950-), Mark Martin (1954-), and Grant Martin (1955-).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Scope and Content: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Photographs, scrapbooks, and correspondence related to the Annexstad family of Norseland, Minnesota. Most correspondence is sent to Karen Annexstad Humphrey. Three scrapbooks: 2 scrapbooks with cartoons about "Han Ola og Han Per" from the 1940s, in the Decorah-Posten, 1 scrapbook with political cards, mid-20th century and earlier.
