Peter O. Fjeseth

(6 Feb 1883 - 2 Mar 1961)

Twin of Emma

Peter O. Fjeseth wrote a book "Recollections and History of Lake Hendricks Township" in 1959.
Peter has wooden carvings in Brookings County Courthouse.

Peter and Ingeborg had 4 children, 2 boys and 2 girls. The two boys died very early. I do not know the dates. Clara married Christ Jensen and Beulah married Justin Anderson. Beulah lived to be over 100 years old. She died in December 16, 2007. Beulah should receive the credit for most of the information and for the pictures that I have for this history as she was very helpful to me in my search for information regarding the families. She was very informative and helpful past her 100 years of age.

Peter has wooden carvings in Brookings County Courthouse. Peter was interested in photography and he took a picture of himself playing cards with himself. He sat in different positions in the two places. There are no lines in the picture so it does look as if he really is having a card game with himself sitting at the same time together
