Obituary, 26 Jan 1922, Delano Eagle, Hennepin, Minnesota.
"Andrew Lindberg was born in Sweden, Jan. 30, 1832. Died at his home in Maple Plain, Jan. 18, 1922. He came to Minnesota in 1873, and with the exception of two years, spent in Wisconsin, has lived in this vicinity until his death. His wife, Sophia died two years ago and since that time Mr. Lindberg has been in poor health and death came as a welcome release. He leaves one son John Lindberg of Minneapolis, and one daughter, Mrs. Josephine Farrel of Mitchilville, Iowa. The funeral was held Saturday afternoon at the Swedish Lutheran Church, Rev. Hedin of Watertown, officiating. Interment at Lewis cemetery, Armstrong."
Note: born Andreas Jansson, son of Jan Hall, in Bone Parish, Alvsborg lan, Sweden. Andreas Jansson changed his name to Andrew Lindberg when he came to the USA with his family in 1864 and went immediately to Rockford, Illinois. He did not land in New York City since America was in the middle of the Civil War. It is thought he came through Quebec, Canada then to Rockford, Illinois.
Arrived in Long Lake, Hennepin, Minnesota in 11/27/1873. His family arrived a few weeks later.

Andrew Lindberg was born Jan. 30, 1832 and died at Maple Plain, Jan. 18, 1922 at the age of 90 years. Came to Maple Plain, Minn., Nov. 27, 1873. The family arrived a few weeks later. They located at Long Lake, Minn., where Lindberg and his sons were employed in the barrell stave factory. There he worked for two and received double wages. He was one of the strongest men in the community. He cleared 80 acres of land with heavy timber after he was 70 years old. He owned farms on several places near Maple Plain. He moved to Clear Lake, Wis., in 1881, where three of the children died of diptheria. This was a very bad move. He came back broken hearted and money spent. Took a new grip on life and went to work on their farm 6 miles west of Maple Plain. He died in his home just outside the village of Maple Plain. Funeral at Lutheran Church. They were charter members of the Lyndale Lutheran church and helped to build that church.
