1907-1987

Papers of a St. Paul woman who was a leader in Norwegian-American organizations, especially in the Norse-American Centennial Celebration in 1925, the Norse-American Centennial Daughters of St. Paul, and the Minnesota Leif Erickson Monument Association. She held offices in all of these organizations and continued to sponsor an annual Leif Erickson celebration after the monument had been erected in 1949. She was also an officer in the group which administered Lyngblomsten Home for the Aged in St. Paul. The papers include some of these records. The above papers were donated by Mrs. Brack's daugher, Ione Kadden, St. Paul. A collection of the records of the Norse American Daughters of St. Paul was donated by Mrs. Brack earlier and has been cataloged separately.
