Obituary for A. Jorgenson
-------------------------------------------------
Independent Times, Hutchinson, MN, 5 April 1905, page 1.

A. Jorgensen died at his home in this city on Saturday from 
dropsy from which he has been a sufferer for more than a 
year, aged 67 years.  The deceased was born in Denmark and 
grew to manhood there, and was married there forty-two 
years ago.  He emigrated to this country in 1887 and coming 
to Minnesota settled on a farm near Lake Marion. Here he 
resided until five or six years ago when he removed to this 
city where he has since made his home, working at the 
carpenter trade until the state of his health prevented.  
He is survived by his wife and seven children, one of whom, 
Christian, resides in Denmark.  Those here are:  Mrs. 
Chris. Petersen, Peter Hansen, Peter Olsen and Carl 
Jorgensen of this city, and Jergen of Seattle, Wash., and 
Anton of Winona, Minn.  The funeral services were held 
Monday noon, Rev. K. Knudsen officiating.
