<br /><p><b>History/Biography:</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Waldemar Theodor Ager was born in Fredrikstad, Østfold, Norway to Martinius Mathiesen Ager and Marie Fredrikke Mathea Johnsdatter Stillaugsen. Martinius first emigrated to the United States by himself, starting a tailoring business. Eventually, Ager and the rest of the family joined Martinus in Chicago. In Chicago, Ager worked for the Norwegian-language newspaper, </span><i><span style="font-weight:400;">Norden. </span></i><span style="font-weight:400;">His newspaper career flourished when he moved to Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and was offered a job at a Norwegian temperance newspaper called </span><i><span style="font-weight:400;">Reform</span></i><span style="font-weight:400;">. Ager became editor from 1903-1941. Ager was a leader in the prohibition movement. He helped organize total abstinence societies and Good Templar lodges across the Upper Midwest. Ager remained a teetotaler his entire life. </span></p>
<br /><p><span style="font-weight:400;">In addition to his newspaper career, Ager also wrote six novels and collections of short stories. Among his best known books are "Paa drikkeondets Konto" (1894), "Kristus for Pilatus" (1910), "Oberst Heg og hans gutter" (1916), "Paa veien til smeltepotten" (1917), "Gamlelandets sønner" (1926), and "Hundeøine" (1929). </span></p>

<p><b>History/Biography:<br /></b><span style="font-weight:400;">Waldemar Theodor Ager was born in Fredrikstad, Østfold, Norway to Martinius Mathiesen Ager and Marie Fredrikke Mathea Johnsdatter Stillaugsen. Martinius first emigrated to the United States by himself, starting a tailoring business. Eventually, Ager and the rest of the family joined Martinus in Chicago. In Chicago, Ager worked for the Norwegian-language newspaper, </span><i><span style="font-weight:400;">Norden. </span></i><span style="font-weight:400;">His newspaper career flourished when he moved to Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and was offered a job at a Norwegian temperance newspaper called </span><i><span style="font-weight:400;">Reform</span></i><span style="font-weight:400;">. Ager became editor from 1903-1941. Ager was a leader in the prohibition movement. He helped organize total abstinence societies and Good Templar lodges across the Upper Midwest. Ager remained a teetotaler his entire life. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">In addition to his newspaper career, Ager also wrote six novels and collections of short stories. Among his best known books are "Paa drikkeondets Konto" (1894), "Kristus for Pilatus" (1910), "Oberst Heg og hans gutter" (1916), "Paa veien til smeltepotten" (1917), "Gamlelandets sønner" (1926), and "Hundeøine" (1929). </span></p>

Julius B. Baumann papers, circa 1916-1923
Description
An account of the resource
<strong>History/Biography:<br /></strong>Julius Berg Johannesen was born in 1869 to Johannes Johannesen Bauman and Barbro Susanna Pedersdatter in Kiby (Tyby), Nord-Varanger, Finnmark, Norway. His father, Johannes Baumann, was a fisherman and partner of Per Kristian Glein, a well-known skipper and merchant on the island of Dønna. He married Barbo Susanna in Dønna, foster daughter of Per Kristian Glein.<br /><br />Julius became a fisherman and laborer in Norway after his father died when he was 10. His mother encouraged to find work elsewhere, knowing that he did not want to be a fisherman. He became a private tutor to children of a wealthy family, and was appointed assistant postmaster at Osen, north of Trondheim. When two young men came to visit from America, they became acquainted with Julius and offered to pay for his transportation to the United States. In 1891, at the age of 20, Baumann immigrated to the United States and eventually settled in Minnesota. <br /><br />Baumann wrote songs and poems on the Norwegian-American immigrant experience, and his poems were frequently memorized, and sung to well-known melodies. Baumann published three volumes of poems: "Digte" (1909), "Fra Vidderne" (1915), and, posthumously, "Samlede Digte" (1924). He was well acquainted with Norwegian-American Authors Waldemar Ager and Ole E. Rølvaag. <br /><br />See “Julius B. Baumann: A Biographical Sketch" by John Heitmann( Norwegian-American Studies, Vol. 15) for more information. <br /><strong><br /></strong><b>Scope and Content: <br /></b>Papers of a Norwegian-born poet and register of deeds in Carlton County, Minnesota: poems, letters, clippings, and three scrapbooks containing newspaper articles by Baumann, responses to his articles, and discussions on Norwegian-American literature by a variety of authors. Baumann published three volumes of poems: "Digte" (1909), "Fra Vidderne" (1915), and, posthumously, "Samlede Digte" (1924).

<p><b>Collection Name: </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Kristian Prestgard papers, 1884-1945</span></p>
<br /><p><b>Collection Number: </b></p>

<p><span style="font-weight:400;">2.4 cubic feet (6 archives boxes)</span></p>
<br /><p><b>History/Biography: </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Kristian Prestgard was born on the Harelstad farm in Heidal, Oppland, Norway. His parents were Gudbrand Kristensen Harelstad (1829-1869) and Marit Prestgard (1841-1897). When his father, Kristian and Marit moved back to her family farm in Prestgard. </span></p>
<br /><p><span style="font-weight:400;">Prestgard attended the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago as a correspondent for </span><i><span style="font-weight:400;">Oplandenes Avis,</span></i><span style="font-weight:400;"> a Norwegian newspaper. Instead of returning home to Norway, he started working in the Norwegian-American press. In 1897, he married Oline Musum (1873–1919) and took a position with a Norwegian language newspaper company in La Crosse, Wisconsin.</span></p>
<br /><p><span style="font-weight:400;">He was co-editor and editor of "Decorah-Posten" (1897-1946); co-editor and publisher of "Symra" (1905-1914); editor of Norske Kvad (1906); translator of "Fra Livet i Vestjylland" by Jakob Jakobsen (1894); author of "Nansenfaerden" (1896), Skrøneboka (1911), En Sommer i Norge (1928), "Streiftog, Stemninger og Skildringer" and "Fjords and Faces" (1937); and a founder of NAHA and a member of its board of editors (1925-1933). </span></p>
<br /><p><b>Scope and Content: </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Correspondence, manuscripts, and a scrapbook of a Norwegian-born journalist and author.</span></p>
<br /><p><span style="font-weight:400;">The letters by Prestgard and those by his correspondents deal largely with such subjects as the language controversy both in Norway and America, the tour of Norway by twelve American newspapermen in 1927, Knut Gjerset's unfinished dictionary of Norwegian-American biography, the writings of Ole E. Rølvaag, the Norwegian-American Historical Association, the merging of "Minneapolis Tidende" and "Decorah-Posten" in 1935, genealogy, immigration history, and gladioli. He gained a reputation as a horticulturist by developing 30 new varieties of gladioli. </span></p>
<br /><p><span style="font-weight:400;">The Ola K. Stokkestad letters to Prestgard (1884-1897) are unique in that they treat not the economics of rural areas but cultural pursuits mainly in the city. </span></p>
<br /><p><span style="font-weight:400;">The Arne Odd Johnson letters (1934-1938) deal with editorial and publication problems connected with using the Prestgard-Ivar Kleiven correspondence as basic material in a history of the migration of Norwegians to America. </span></p>
<br /><p><span style="font-weight:400;">The John Heitmann letters (1928-1945) are primarily about the problems of translating, editing, and publishing "Fjords and Faces," the English version of "En Sommer i Norge." </span></p>
<br /><p><span style="font-weight:400;">Among the other correspondents are R. B. Anderson, Henry Armstrong, Mrs. L. M. Boomer, Th. Caspari, Borghild M. Dahl, Juul Dieserud, P. J. Eikeland, Johan Falkberget, Arne Garborg, C. J. Hambro, J. C. M. Hanson, Hjalmar R. Holand, Halvdan Koht, Hanna Astrup Larsen, Fridtjof Nansen, John Norstog, Julius Olson, Franklin Petersen, Ragnhild Prestgard, A. N. Rygg, Ludwig Saxe, Th. H. Svanoe, A. A. Veblen, and Henry A.

Description
An account of the resource
<p><b>History/Biography: </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Kristian Prestgard was born on the Harelstad farm in Heidal, Oppland, Norway. His parents were Gudbrand Kristensen Harelstad (1829-1869) and Marit Prestgard (1841-1897). When his father, Kristian and Marit moved back to her family farm in Prestgard. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Prestgard attended the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago as a correspondent for </span><i><span style="font-weight:400;">Oplandenes Avis,</span></i><span style="font-weight:400;"> a Norwegian newspaper. Instead of returning home to Norway, he started working in the Norwegian-American press. In 1897, he married Oline Musum (1873–1919) and took a position with a Norwegian language newspaper company in La Crosse, Wisconsin.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">He was co-editor and editor of "Decorah-Posten" (1897-1946); co-editor and publisher of "Symra" (1905-1914); editor of Norske Kvad (1906); translator of "Fra Livet i Vestjylland" by Jakob Jakobsen (1894); author of "Nansenfaerden" (1896), Skrøneboka (1911), En Sommer i Norge (1928), "Streiftog, Stemninger og Skildringer" and "Fjords and Faces" (1937); and a founder of NAHA and a member of its board of editors (1925-1933). <br /><br /></span></p>
<p><b>Scope and Content: </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Correspondence, manuscripts, and a scrapbook of a Norwegian-born journalist and author.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">The letters by Prestgard and those by his correspondents deal largely with such subjects as the language controversy both in Norway and America, the tour of Norway by twelve American newspapermen in 1927, Knut Gjerset's unfinished dictionary of Norwegian-American biography, the writings of Ole E. Rølvaag, the Norwegian-American Historical Association, the merging of "Minneapolis Tidende" and "Decorah-Posten" in 1935, genealogy, immigration history, and gladioli. He gained a reputation as a horticulturist by developing 30 new varieties of gladioli. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">The Ola K. Stokkestad letters to Prestgard (1884-1897) are unique in that they treat not the economics of rural areas but cultural pursuits mainly in the city. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">The Arne Odd Johnson letters (1934-1938) deal with editorial and publication problems connected with using the Prestgard-Ivar Kleiven correspondence as basic material in a history of the migration of Norwegians to America. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">The John Heitmann letters (1928-1945) are primarily about the problems of translating, editing, and publishing "Fjords and Faces," the English version of "En Sommer i Norge." </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Among the other correspondents are R. B. Anderson, Henry Armstrong, Mrs. L. M. Boomer, Th. Caspari, Borghild M. Dahl, Juul Dieserud, P. J. Eikeland, Johan Falkberget, Arne Garborg, C. J. Hambro, J. C. M. Hanson, Hjalmar R. Holand, Halvdan Koht, Hanna Astrup Larsen, Fridtjof Nansen, John Norstog, Julius Olson, Franklin Petersen, Ragnhild Prestgard, A. N. Rygg, Ludwig Saxe, Th. H. Svanoe, A. A. Veblen, and Henry A. Wallace.<br /><br /></span></p>
