Sjukdom må ha herja familien hardt i 1880, då mista dei fem born mellom 25. november og 6. desember. Alle gravlagde på Little Norway Lutheran Cemetery, Fertile, Polk, Minnesota.

Notes:

Usikkert om ho er dotter her. Ikke funnen døypt. Eneste kandidat er ei Martha fødd 6. desember 1841 på Finnesteigen, døypt 1. januar 1842, dotter til Knud Ols. (Saue) og Ragnhilde Mikkelsdtr. Skjeldal men ho vart gift med Ingebrigt K. Afdahl i 1874 i Wisconsin.

Ved to høve oppgjer ho mars 1842 som fødselsmånad i folketellingar "over there".

Ei Marthe Knudsdtr. Bolstadøren, 24 aar reiste til Quebec i 1867 med Mons Knudsen Tyssen, 21 aar. Ho hadde vore tenestejente der (1865), medan han var "arbeider ved et vævefabrik" og budde heime.
