!SO: D-041 by Carol Reishus Lund. From Alice Lund.
NOTES: D-042 relates that Sondre was an only child. And after his mother died,
he wanted to take over the farm, Reishus. However his father was
unwilling to turn the place over to him, apparantly becauce Sondre's
father was intending to remarry and remain on the farm. Sondre and
Ingeborg decided to go to America and the remainder of this `REISHUS
FAMILY SAGA' deals with the details of the trip and the beginnings in
America. They eventually bought 120 acres of farm land at First Lake,
a distance of about 80 miles from Milwakee, WI. In 1853 the railroad
came through a corner of their land. and the Indians had traded land to
the whites that same year. Minnesota was still a Territiory.
In 1854 they moved to Minnesota locating at the Root River in Fillmore
County, where the town of Rushford would later be established. They did
well on their farm there. In the fall of 1856? they sold their wheat for
$1.50 per bushel.

the `East' to the Flatdal area, a valley surrounded by Massive mountain
ranges of the Upper Telemark region. Here he found work with various
people and had saved some money when fell in love with one of the
girls in the valley but she would not marry him unless he would provide a
house. He was granted a piece of land which ended at the perpendicular
wall of mountain. Here he cleared the land and built an unusual cabin by
leaning huge timbers against the moutain wall. Because of the unusual
construction, the farm became known as REISHUS. (REIS: a V shaped log
pile.). It was here that he brought his bride to live. Her name was
Ragna. Sandre and Ragna has seven children, all girls. Ragnhild was the
oldest and inherited the place from her parents. She married a man from
