    Anna Sørensen, Cora født Larsen, Alice født Petersen, Gusta Petersen, Karen født Petersen og Grace Palmer (født Petersen).

    Birth:
    Foreldrenes bopel: Sandgaten 25.

    Residence:
    Fra adresseboka 1900-1901 og 1902-1903:

    Lorentzen, Gustava, Frk., Ø.Møllenbg. 12.

    Emigration:
    Ifølge emigrantprotokoll over emigrerte fra Trondheim, dro 58-årige Karen Lorentzen med skipet Salmo, Dominion-linjen, fra Trondheim 27.juli 1900, sammen med sin 18-årige datter Gusta.
    Endelig destinasjon skal ha vært Chicago, Illinois.

    Billettene deres var betalt i Amerika.

    Kilde:
    Emigrantarkivet, under emigrerte fra Trondheim 1867-1930.

    Ifølge Bruce Petersen skal Gusta ha reist fra Norge med sin mor, Karen Lorentzen, med SS Salmo til Hull i England i 1900. Derfra med tog til Liverpool, hvor de i august dro videre til Boston med SS New England. Er dette riktig?

    Bruce Petersen sier også at Gusta skal ha fulgt sin eldre bror Fredrik Christian til Amerika, da han reiste 25.mars 1903 (dato iht emigrantprotokollen).
    Gusta skal ha vendt hjem til gamlelandet kort tid etter at datteren Alice ble født - turen det trolig refereres til ovenfor.

    Anecdote:
    Dearest Oscar,

    Ruth og Einar staar nu for reisen færdig, saa jeg vil skynd mig og skrive nogle ord. Du maa sandelig ta dig sammen og blive frisk og rask som du var sidst jeg var hjemme, tiden gaar saa hurtig det er nu bare fire maaneder igjen n det er plenty tid for dig og komme paa benene igjen, da Ruth har saa lidet rum sender jeg dig bare to kortstokker, mere næste gang.

    Kjærlig hilsen søster Gusta.

    Residence:
    I et brev til sin niese Ruth Skøien datert 16.august 1963 skriver Gusta:

    ...I am so croppled up and have so much pain, the best place for me is home. I don't go out unless someone picks me up or I take a cab.
    We are all settled in our new flat and we like it a lot, it's a nice neigborhood...

    Died:
    Niesen Margaret Nelson skriver i et brev til sin kusine Ruth Skøien datert 13.august 1971:

    Dear Ruth:

    Well, I guess you know by now that Aunt Gusta passed away two weeks ago. She didn't suffer too much at the end as they gave her pain killers. She actually died of cancer. When Cora and I went to see her you would hardly recognize her she was so shriveled up and thin.
    They held the wake only one night at the same funeral home that Alice was laid out in and there weren't too many people there as most of Alice's frends live in Chicago and they think Glenview is too far away.

    I saw Ruth at the wake...

    Wanted. Boys with four-year high school education to learn proofreading.

    Dette synes Pete så interessant ut og søkte jobben, og i slutten av måneden startet han hos Donnelleys' Plymouth Court.

    Pete startet som copyholder og ble en crackerjack proofreader, en karriere som skulle bli over 30 år lang, og som innebar proofreading on pressproofs and the marking of press plates.

    På grunn av multippel sklerose måtte Pete slutte å arbeide i 1957.

    Han fortsatte fra oktober 1960 å skrive sin egen spalte i - The Lakeside Review - som het Pete's corner, en spalte over Donnelleys pensjonister.

    It's been two weeks since my mom passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. It still doesn't seem real and it still doesn't make sense. But I wanted to take a minute to thank all of my family, friends, and neighbors for all of the texts, calls, messages, cards, flowers, food, and beverages. This sure as hell hasn't been easy but you guys have made it easier. Thank you!
