I appreciate your offer of sending the photo, but I have an original of the photo as well. As to comments about the fire from my grandparents, I was quite young when they died and never really had the opportunity to hear them discuss it. My father told me a little bit, but most of the info I have about the fire came from a newspaper article that was published at the time. Algot and Anna had 10 children, none of which seemed too inclined to discuss the fire as I grew up. Evidently it had been a very sensitive topic for my grandmother and was avoided for her sake. Anyway, thanks for the interesting article and all the research you did. My dad's uncle Bill (William Rulien) who was a survivor of the fire, had quite a long and interesting history in the Baudette, MN vicinity. If there's ever a story done regarding that area, he'd be a colorful subject. Thanks again.

Nine members of Anna's family, according to FindAGrave (http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=95838662) were caught and perished in a forest fire in 1910. It appears only two sisters survived, Ellen and Josephine.Intense Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441598926026727682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320880361203053560.post-38824166060291643052013-10-02T08:35:04.581-05:002013-10-02T08:35:04.581-05:00I suspect (but am not certain) that this is Algot ...I suspect (but am not certain) that this is Algot E.
