Her husband passed away on the boat on the way to the United States and was buried at sea.
Ragnhild, age 80, is found living with Ole & Anna Volleggen in the 1885 census of North Fork. It appears that she was also known as Rachel or Racil. According to the 1875 census, she was living with her son Gilbert. 1880 census shows her living with her son Knud.
The marker was created based upon data that was believed to be correct, however the Big Grove Lutheran Church records show the 9th to be the burial date.
