                <text>&lt;span&gt;Ole E. Langli, originally from Selbu, Norway, immigrated to the United States in 1912 at the age of 17. His older brother, Ingebrigt, was already farming in Minnesota and sent Ole money for his passage. When it came time to book the journey, Ole found he didn’t have quite enough for a ticket on the Titanic—so he chose a different ship instead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once in Minnesota, he worked on his brother’s farm and in the logging industry. He eventually met and married Anna Henmo, who had emigrated from Tydal, Norway, along with her sister. Ole later found long-term employment at the Ford plant, where he worked for 40 years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ole and Anna settled in North Minneapolis and raised two children together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Collection includes letters and photographs.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                <text>In this interview, Chris Woodard describes the repair and restoration work he has done on a former wooden Navy minesweeper (now a fishing vessel) beginning around 2011. He explains the boat’s unusual double-planked construction, its heavy use of oak and bronze, and the complications created by original degaussing equipment, which caused internal electrolysis and deterioration of the inner planking. Chris outlines major repair projects, including stem damage from hitting an island, large plank and frame replacements, extensive caulking, and removal of old ice sheathing. He details recurring challenges such as failing brass fasteners, poorly designed sea chests, and difficulty sourcing bronze hardware. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Transcript only.</text>

                <text>In this interview, Arne Einmo reflects on his lifelong connection to the shipyard and to the fishing vessel Polaris, which his father fished on and maintained there beginning around 1950. Raised in a Norwegian immigrant family, Arne grew up working alongside his father -- painting, repairing equipment, and later fishing on the Polaris himself between roughly 1952 and 1962 to pay for school. He recalls the shipyard as a tight-knit, family-like community that provided full services to longline halibut vessels, from caulking and engine work to supplies, fuel coordination, and even financial “settlements” for crews. Arne eventually served about 15 years on the board, including three terms as president, and later helped hire manager Doug, whose leadership greatly improved the yard’s finances.</text>

                <text>&lt;strong&gt;Biography/History:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Carter J. Johnson and Bessie (Berg) Johnson were Norwegian American residents of the Wausau, Wisconsin, area, born in the 1890s to parents who had immigrated from Norway between the 1870s and 1880s. Following their marriage in 1919, the couple relocated to Green Bay, Wisconsin, where they raised one daughter. During her studies at the University of Wisconsin, their daughter met an Alabama native enrolled in Officer Training School; the two married in September 1945 and subsequently settled in Birmingham, Alabama, where they raised six children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Scope and Content:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The collection includes numerous photographs and photo albums spanning many years, along with a set of postcards containing correspondence.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Biography/History: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Karl Enok Eliason&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt; (1847-1925) was born in Kolvereid, Nord-Trøndelag, Norway, to Elias Larsen Rygvold and Berethe Einarsdatter. In 1875, he married Kathrina Synnes in Folderied, Norway. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;Kathrina Andrea Eriksdatter Synnes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt; (1847-1938) was born in Høylandet, Nordre Trondhjem, Norway, to Erik Pedersen (mother unknown). They had three children born in Norway and two in the United States: Sofie, Elias, Erik, Martin, and Alfred. In 1882, they immigrated and homesteaded near Appleton, Minnesota. Their first home was a dugout in the side of a hill on the farm. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;The first child born in the United States was Martin (1885-1961). Martin A. Eliason married Allie Mae Olsen (1888-1956). They also farmed near Appleton, Minnesota. Martin was a member of the Horticultural Society and developed his own peony seedling called Le Charme, which can still be ordered from seed catalogs. He served as a School Board Clerk and was active in the local church. &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;Correspondence, photographs, pamphlets, and other records about the Eliason family of Appleton, Minnesota. Correspondence includes many letters either sent from Norway or in Norwegian.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Biography/History: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;Karl Enok Eliason&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt; (1847-1925) was born in Kolvereid, Nord-Trøndelag, Norway, to Elias Larsen Rygvold and Berethe Einarsdatter. In 1875, he married Kathrina Synnes in Folderied, Norway. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;Kathrina Andrea Eriksdatter Synnes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt; (1847-1938) was born in Høylandet, Nordre Trondhjem, Norway, to Erik Pedersen (mother unknown). They had three children born in Norway and two in the United States: Sofie, Elias, Erik, Martin, and Alfred. In 1882, they immigrated and homesteaded near Appleton, Minnesota. Their first home was a dugout in the side of a hill on the farm. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;The first child born in the United States was Martin (1885-1961). Martin A. Eliason married Allie Mae Olsen (1888-1956). They also farmed near Appleton, Minnesota. Martin was a member of the Horticultural Society and developed his own peony seedling called Le Charme, which can still be ordered from seed catalogs. He served as a School Board Clerk and was active in the local church. &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;Correspondence, photographs, pamphlets, and other records about the Eliason family of Appleton, Minnesota. Correspondence includes many letters either sent from Norway or in Norwegian.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Location:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;20/C/6&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>
