Notes:

"John Dahle lived with his parents near Emmons, Freeborn, Minnesota, just south of the Emmons Depot. It was a two story log house, 16 foot by 24 foot, which also had an addition. The home was the destination of many emigrants. Many times there were as many as three families living in the house at one time. Church services, weddings, baptisms etc were held in this house, because it was one of the lagest in the community.

John Dahle was married to Martha (Halvorsdtr.) Peterson who came with her parents Halvor and Anna Øvrebø Petersen to America. They came west in 1858 from Spring Prairie, Wisconsin. They used oxen and a covered wagon for traveling. Martha was the oldest of four children, som she had to drive the oxen most of the time when they were on their way. Her parents lived on a farm on the east bank of Lime Creek. She often told of the dreaded prairie fires. As their home was on the west edge of the settlement, they could often see the fires many miles west of them. At those times, somone was always on watch during the night in case the fire came eastward rapidly.

The settlement of Norman was started the same fall as the railroad was built in 1877 or 1878. John Dahle had a grocery store in Norman."

John and Martha had the son Peter C. J. Dahle, who was married to Ingeborg Stene in 1897, who lived in Emmons. He told the story above to the Leader-Press in Glenville, Minnesota in 1949.

Peter also told that there were so many Saterdals in the area that their mail was getting mixed up, therefore his father changed his name to Dahle. It cost him 50 dollars to have it legally changed.

The parents of Martha: Halvor died on the 6th of March, 1908, at the age of ninety years, and the mother passed away June 11, 1892, when nearly eighty years old, the remains of both being interred in the Lime Creek cemetery.

John married Martha Halvorsdtr. Øvrebø on 18 May 1868 in Halvor Pedersens hus i Winnebago County, Iowa. Martha was born on 6 Jul 1842 in Hafslo, Sogn; died in 1924 in Norway, Winnebago, Iowa, USA; was buried in 1924 in Lake Mills, Iowa, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
