Great grandparents Nils Gundersen Øvald and Gunhild Marie Olsdatter are buried in the Nordre Gravlund cemetery in Skien, Telemark, Norway. Just a short walk from my grandmothers apartment, I took this photo on a visit in 1984. Their oldest son Finn Øvald is also buried there. He died first in 1946. My grandmother told me she believed he died from leukemia at the young age of 36. Since this photo was taken Finn's wife Margot and also my grandmother Dagmar are buried at this site.
