Hi Wally,

In 1900, he's indexed as Ellen J. Part of his name is written over, but I can make out Ell?? J. He's also married & has 3 sons. They are Oden H., 4/Dec 1895, Arthur P., 2/Oct 1897 & Almer, 7 months/Oct 1899. In 1905, he's "Ellend" J. With him are your grandmother & Edward Iverson, 3 & Mabel C. Iverson, 5. I can follow the children thru 1930 & see them on death indexes, but not Ellen.

World War I Draft Registration Card:

Name: Palmer Arthur Ohnstad
City: Not Stated
County: Brown
State: South Dakota
Birth Date: 28 Oct 1897
Race: White
Roll: 1877787
DraftBoard: 0
Age: 20
Occupation: Threshing
Employer: Nels C. Peterson
Nearest Relative: Elling Ohnstad-Father
Address: Auburn, Washington
Height/Build: Tall/Medium
Color of Eyes/Hair: Gray-Brown/Auburn
Dated: September 12th, 1918

There's a chance that the registrar asked Palmer how to spell his father's name. So, maybe it is Elling?

That probably didn't help much, did it?!
