Mrs. Anna Brohelden, 90, mother of Mrs. Edward Krause of Granton, died Monday, April 26, at the Elmcroft Nursing Home in Galesville, where she had resided for the last six months. She was born in Norway February 8, 1875, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nels Brenengan.  At the age of six she came to this country with her parents.  She married Anton Brohelden at French Creek, November 25, 1899, and the couple farmed just west of Ettrick.  He died January 11, 1948, and for a number of years Mrs. Brohelden made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Stanley Klinkenberg, in South Beaver Creek.
