Title A name given to the resource Finding aid to the Olof Meyer Jorgenson papers, 1903-1980 PDF Text Text Collection Name: Olof Meyer Jorgenson papers, 1903-1980 Collection Number: P1106 Extent: 0.8 cubic feet (2 archives boxes) Abstract: Miscellaneous papers of a 1903 emigrant from Fiskenes on the island of And. He became a member of the Baptist Church in Norway. After study at the Danish-Norwegian Baptist Seminary in Chicago, he was ordained in 1911 and served parishes of the Danish-Norwegian Conference in Minnesota, North Dakota, and Washington. The file includes a biography by Mrs. Jorgenson; a sizable collection of letters by Jorgenson to his family in Norway and his family's letters to him; a seminary thesis; obituaries and other funeral notes; sermons and sermon outlines; and church related documents such as minutes, congregational papers, anniversary programs, church histories, and tributes.
