This Gilbertson tree has the trunk Gulbrand and Anna Olsen. It was written by Rev. Merril T Gilbertson . It intersects the Ranum History most prominently with Marit Gulbrandsdatter Gilbertson in chapter 7 (page 86)
This is a scan of pages 250 - 272 of the Timber Hewers book. It does not include the picture pages. This is a wonderfully written look at pioneer life. It includes much information on the Lunns and the Ranums.
