McEwen, John

I am looking for information re: John McEwen who is listed as one of the first settlers of Norma, N.D., 
according to the Renville County History. 
From the Census Records I have found that John married an Effie L. ?unknown? who had a daughter, Florence, 
by a first marriage. In about 1906 John and Effie had a son, Paul and in about 1912 another son John McEwen Jr.
John McEwen was the youngest of seven Children of Alexander and Elizabeth (Hibson) McEwen. 
They were married in Minton, Londonderry, Ireland on February 16, 1854 
John and Elizabeth must have come to the U.S. shortly after their marriage, as their first daughter Mary was born
December 16, 1855 in Leicester, Livingston Co., NY. Other siblings of John were, William born February 18, 1857
although the date of March 05, 1862 was listed in Alexander’s Civil War pension report. 
I suppose it is possible that there were two Williams, as there is a childs grave on the family plot,
listed as little Willie. Then there is Elizabeth born December 02, 1859, married to Bert Bloodgood; 
then Ester (Esther) McEwen born December 18, 1861 and apparently never married. Next is Thomas T. McEwen
born May 06, 1863; Margaret "Maggie" McEwen born April 01, 1865 and married to Robert MacDowell.   
Last but not least was John born November 21, 1868.

I am currently trying to find any information I can about my Great Great grandmother
and grandfather. I know that they both owned seperate pieces of land in Renville
County around 1904.  Their names are Anna Larson and Peter Lode.
I also know that Anna's parents were named John and Celia Larson but I am not
sure if this is the same John Larson who also owned land in Renville county at that
time.Any information that you could direct me to would be greatly appreciated.

John Anderson of Sherwood, ND is listed as my Great Uncle Hans W. Anderson's
brother in Hans' obituary of 1972.  Hans passed away in Florida.  A sister, Alice, of 
Chula Vista, CA, is also listed in Hans' obituary (Mrs. Alice Allenaresa).  
I am trying to find an obituary or any other information about John or Alice and their parents.  
Their Mother's first name is supposedly Carrie.  No information on their Father.  
Father and Morther were Norwegian.  Carrie's maiden name is possibly Qualla.

Seeking information on parents of Wilhelmena Clementich.  Believe Wilhelmena
to be identical to "Minnie"/"Mina" Clementich, wife of Joseph Clementich. 
Wilhelmena is buried in St. Henry's Cemetery in Renville County.  Her 
tombstone indicates she was born in 1866, but the 1900 and 1910 census 
indicates she could have been born in '67 or '68.  She died in 1918.  I 
suspect that Wilhelmena is the daughter of John and Anna Kinn.  Anna died 
and is buried in Roberts County, SD.  Any information on Wihelmena would be 
greatly appreciated.

I am looking for information about the Ivanhoe Rural School.  I believe my 
mother taught there in 1923.  It was her first teaching job.  I am hoping
someone has records from that far back.  Her name was Muriel Gibbs
(or she may have gone by Flora Muriel Gibbs)
