FileFormat by Terri--MNArchives Made available to The USGenWeb Archives by: Russell Haugen Submitted: March 2005 ========================================================================= Solor (Sjolie) Lutheran Cemetery 14-Mar-2005 This cemetery is located on the Northeast corner of section 2 of the township of Garfield, (Township T-117-N, Range R-45-W), within the county of Lac qui Parle, Minnesota. From 1881 to 1923 there was a church next to the cemetery. Services were discontinued in 1922, and membership was transferred elsewhere. The cemetery has remained active, however. The list of entries here was collected by performing a "walk-through" of the cemetery to obtain names and dates from the stones. After securing the list of entries, the Lac Qui Parle county Museum (obituaries) and the county courthouse (birth and death recordings) were used to obtain more information for the entries. To this list was added information contributed by Rueben Sjolie, who has worked on the genealogy of the Sjolie family. About the format of the entries: i) Entries with a double asterisk present (**) indicates no additional information was located. ii) Alternate family names resulting from marriage are indicated by square brackets: [ ] iii) The appreviations used include Sp = spouse, and Ch = Children. Although an attempt has been made to identify all of the children, some have probably have been missed. iv) Entries with single asterisks (*) following the names indicate that only space has been allocated in the cemetery for the name. It is the intention that sufficient information be provided to correctly identify each entry. There may, however, be cases where information is missing or incorrect. If any reader should notice missing or incorrect information, contact me at URL russ.haugen@earthlink.net or at: Russell Haugen 4 Monroe St. #901 Rockville, Md. 20850-2563 Lastly, I would like to thank the individuals that have contributed their time and energy to make this possible. Of specific note are the people at the "Lac qui Parle museum", and the "Lac qui Parle courthouse".
