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:
- John Albert Hedell (1866 - 1955)
- [Gravestone]
- [WWI Draft Registration Cards: 1917-1918 Nebraska Database]
- Born in Boyd County
- Gustave Alfred Hedell (1873 - 1962)
- [Gravestone]
- [WWI Draft Registration Cards: 1917-1918 Nebraska Database]
- Born in Phelps County
The parents of John, Minnie, and Gustave appear to be:
- Charles G. Hedell (1835 - 1914) (aka Carl Gustaf?)
- [Gravestone] (Charles G.)
- [Gravestone] (Carl Gustaf)
- Albertina Hedell (1835 - 1899)
FindaGrave lists other Hedells gravesites:
- [Abner Alfred] (1903 - 1978). Parents: Gustave Alfred Hedell, [Christine Christensen]. Spouse: [Gladise B. Hedell].
- [Amy Hedell] (1909 - 1976). Parents: Gustave Alfred Hedell, Christine Christensen.
- [Betty Hedell] (1869 - 1916). Unknown...
