M. Dale Burwell was born in Mohall on Sept. 3, 1905.
According to his obituary, he moved with his parents
to Grand Forks in 1918.  I believe his parents may have
been James S. and Mary Beulah Burwell, who are buried
near him in Grand Forks.  Looking for any information on
this family (census, land deeds, city directory listings, etc.)

Searching desperately for any info on my g-gfather John Walstad
who moved to Mohall about 1900-1904. I found the following info
on the Renfield County website and would like to find out if either
of these buildings still stand, or if anyone may have any old photos
or info..." George R. Whitford of Mohall, a general merchant built
a store which would later serve as a courthouse for about 27 years.
Construction started July 28th, 1904 with Edwin B. Loucks as
architect and John Walstead as contractor.  August 4th, 1910
a contract was awarded to John F. Walstead to repair the old
Whitford building in Mohall, and he completely remodeled the building.
He put in all necessary offices so it could be used as a temporary courthouse. 

My g-gfather was related to M. O. (Martin Oland?) Hall who was
the city's founder. My g-grandmother Alida died at 3-40 years old,
and is buried somewhere near Mohall, but I have never been able to
locate any garavesite or records. A daughter Julia married into the
Satran family who were also from the Mohall area. My g-mother
Lillian married George Dasher from Glasgow, Montana.
