Born February 19, 1871(1871-02-19)
Died July 23, 1955 (aged 84)
Resting place Moses Hill Cemetery, Phelps County, Nebraska[1]
Spouse Carl Gustav Lindstrom (m. 1895–1924) «Did not recognize date. Try slightly modifying the date in the first parameter.–Did not recognize date. Try slightly modifying the date in the first parameter.»"Marriage: Carl Gustav Lindstrom to Wilhelmina Hedell" Location: (linkback:http://jimlindstrom.com/mediawiki/index.php/Wilhelmina_Hedell)
Children George Delphin Lindstrom
Lula Lindstrom
Harry Lindstrom
Margaret Lindstrom
Parents Alfred Hedell (Swedish Immigrant)

According to Dean Randall Lindstrom: "I remember my grandmother, Minnie, very well. I was in high school sometime around 1950 when she died. I remember that Minnie's husband was always called Charles Lindstrom, but, his given name may have been Carl. My grandpa, Charles, died when my father, George, was a teenager in the 1920's, and before I was born in 1934. Charles and Minnie are buried in the Lindstrom family plot at Moses Hill cemetery northwest of Holdrege. Minnie's last name was Hedell before her marriage to Charles. She had a couple of brothers in Holdrege who I don't remember of ever meeting. Minnie and her brothers had a disagreement about something, and my dad, George, never communicated with his Hedell uncles or cousins. I don't know the names of Minnie's parents, and I don't know where they are buried."

Identifying Minnie's Brothers

If we assume that Minnie's two brothers were born within 10 years of her (1861-1881), then only two candidates I can find are:

The parents of John, Minnie, and Gustave appear to be:
