Kay and Jean May also sent us some information about Rasmus and Annie Christine.  Kay May is a son of Christina Margaret Olsen, who was Anne Marie (Mary) Olsen's next younger sister.  Rasmus' wife Annie Christine was admitted to the Blackfoot Insane Asylum in 1892.  Annie Christine may have been blind.  She would often leave the children home alone while she wandered around in the hills.  The children all learned to work hard since they had a difficult childhood.  It has been said that Annie came froma wealthy family in Denmark and had a hard time adjusting to life in pioneer Idaho.  She was in the Asylum for over 30 years until her death in 1923.

After she left, Rasmus wasn't able to keep all the children at home and most of them were sent to live with other families.  Rasmus was disfellowshiped in 1895 and was rebaptized in 1907.  In 1900 he was living in Preston with his youngest son, Henry.  Rasmus lived with his daughter Christina and her family for about a year before his death in 1929.  Most of Rasmus and Annie Christine's children were very young when she left.  Rasmus also was in jail for a time, apparently in the late 1890s or early 1900s.  Their children supported themselves from a very early age, with some working in restaurants and sugar beet fields.
