Aunt Norah, Aunt Anne, Aunt Helen

While doing some other research recently, I located this information:

Norah Haugen married Kenneth Overby and they lived in West Concord, Minnesota. They had no children and both are deceased. I remember visiting them as a child. They were quiet and peaceful, a bit bland. Ed recalls they didn’t have much to do with the family and apparently Norah didn’t stay in touch very well.

Anne Pauline Heacock Arp – married to Earl Heacock of Stanley, North Dakota who died early. Later was friendly with a wonderful rancher named Ed Will of Stanley, North Dakota. My Cousin Ed tells me that Anne took care of Ed for many years until he died. She later moved to Minneapolis to be close to my Aunt Helen Gretz. She remarried to Dewey Arp and took care of him until he died. Anne had no children and died in 1987 after spending her final years in a nursing home. She left an Oil Royalty to her siblings that is still producing oil today. Ed recalls that Anne took care of her mother Ida out at the farm until she died.

Aunt Helen married Matt Gretz and lived in Minneapolis. They had one child Tommy who is still alive, but rather non-communicative. I recall Tommy had 2 children: Troy & Tanda.
