Henry


A large yet understated marble headstone in South Portal Cemetery, North Dakota.


Henry Saby together with his parents and siblings immigrated to the U.S.A  from Eidfjord, Norway in the late 1880's.  The family first settled in South Dakota then moved to Alberta.  

Somewhere along the line Henry moved to North Dakota where he married Susie and raised four children.

He is buried alongside his wife in South Portal Cemetery.  His children are buried in Minnesota, North Dakota and Wyoming while his siblings are buried in British Columbia and Alberta.  Chances are I'll be near Bawlf, Alberta in the not too distant future where his brothers Thomas and Adolph and his sister Hattie are at rest.

Everyone has a history.
