Lake Park is in Becker county, Minnesota. And I found Nels Paulis Westgard in Becker county.

I did a google search and found a page that shows the same Nils Paulus, Americanized name to Nels Paulis Westgard.

http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/a/n/d/Shannon-A-Anderson/ODT4-0003.html

It shows a wife, and even some living descendants. Mary Christina Anderson must have been the last wife. She died just a few years before him.

The records don't match yours exactly. Dates are close.

Nels Paulis Westgard 1880 - 1965 b: November 10, 1880 in Salnes, Norway d: June 17, 1965 in Detroit Lakes, Becker Co, MN

The website was made by Shannon Anderson, who lives in Minnesota.
shannon@paulbunyan.net

It shows that he died in Becker County, the town of Detroit Lakes.
The Becker County historical society has a web page.
mail@beckercountyhistory.org

HIs wife is buried at Egelund Lutheran Cemetery in Becker County.

Westgaard Mary Christina 1893 1962 69 Egelund Lutheran
She must have been the last wife.

You can look at the www.switchboard.com and see if you find any of his descendants listed.

Look at the Westgards on this page. It's Shannon Anderson's page again.
