My maternal 1st. Great Grandfather, grandson of Abraham & Mary (Hammell) Linderman of Winona, Winona, Minnesota.
Only child of Mary Linderman. Father unknown. His mother never married. His grandparents, Abraham and Mary Linderman claimed him as their son. In those days, in 1875, being born out of wedlock was a mortal sin and shame.
Edward resided at 231 E.Mark Street, Winona, Winona, Minnesota according to the 1875, 1880, 1885, and 1900 U.S. Censuses.
E. F. Linderman worked and lived on the Mississippi River all his life. He worked for the U.S. Lock & Dam in LaCrosse, Wisconsin; and Dubuque, Iowa.
Married Gudrun "Gud" Ivara Lund from Namsos, Norway on 11 September 1902 in Winona, Minnesota.
Edward & Gudrun had one son, Harry; and three daughters, Gladys Serena, Irene Mary, and Evelyn "Eppie" Frances Linderman. They had a home built at 705 W. Third Street, Dubuque, Iowa.
Great Grandpa was in the I.O.O.F. in Dubuque, Iowa. He converted to Jehovah's Witness after the death of his beloved wife, Gud.
The children were raised as Lutheran and all baptized as Lutheran in the St. Paul Evangelical Lutheran Church, at 2025 Jackson Street, in Dubuque, Iowa.
Edy was cremated and his ashes were scattered around his wife, Gudrun's burial site, the government told his family, that they couldn't scatter his ashes in the Mississippi River where he wanted to be.
