Diane, Minda's obituary states that she was the daughter of Hans and Johanna (Johnson) Chestelson, I believe that the Chestelson represents the Norwegian Tjostolvson, when Minda was born her family lived in northern Grant township, east of the Red Cedar River. Also according to her obit she was baptised at the Running Valley Lutheran Church. So any further information might be found in the state census of 1895 or the church records.
