OBITUARY
Iron River Reporter February 18 1957 "Mrs. A. Lundwall Is Dead At 89,
Rites Wednesday"
Mrs. A.
Lundwall, 89, a pioneer of the Menominee range, died at 1 p.m. yesterday
afternoon after an illness of many months.
Her
death occurred at the Fifth avenue home of her daughter, Mrs. Iner Lindbeck,
where she had moved six months ago from her Ice Lake Cut-off road home. She had
retained keen mental and visual faculties to the end despite her illness and
advanced years.
With
her were three daughters, Mrs. Lindbeck, Mrs. Helen Hendershot, of Rochester,
Mich. and Mrs. Carl Youngren of Stambaugh.
The
former Ingaborg Nelson was born in Sweden on March 28, 1868 and she came to
Iron county as a girl, settling with relatives at Crystal Falls and later
moving to Commonwealth in Florence county where she and Mr. Lundwall were
married in November, 1896 [NOTE: obituary of husband Andrew says 1893]. They
observed their golden jubilee in 1946. Mr. Lundwall died Dec. 26, 1952 [NOTE:
incorrect; the year was 1951] and a daughter, Mrs. Emma Jolgren of Rochester,
Mich. died in June of the same year [must also be 1951; she is not mentioned in
her father's obituary].
Surviving
are two sons, Walter of Iron River and Carl of Stambaugh township, and five
daughters: Mrs. Mathilda Lindbeck, Iron River, Mrs. Margaret Youngren,
Stambaugh, Mrs. Lee (Alma) King, Soo, Mrs. Anthony (Vera) Pauloski and Mrs.
Helen Hendershot, Rochester, Mich.
There
are 32 grandchildren and 21 great grandchildren. A sister, Mrs. Katherine
Ecklund, lives in Sweden.
The
family has asked interested friends to consider memorial contributions to the
American Cancer Society, and these can be made with Miss Katherine Ballon at
the Miners State Bank.
The
Rev. J. Milton Nelson, former First Lutheran pastor, will return from Marinette
to officiate at the funeral service Wednesday at 2 p.m. in the Johns chapel
where the remains are in state. Interment will be in Stambaugh cemetery vault.
