Grandmother) I know she had more siblings, though the only name I have for any is Hilda Oakland ( m. Helleckson). Its believed they were from Goodhue Co. Mn... though I have heard stories about Northfield, MN. Not alot to go on, but, if you have any information on Oaklands from Minnesota, It would be greatly appreciated! thanks...
