Biographical Note for Strom, Einar Ingvald (1871-1954) :

Strom, born on June 9, 1871, was the first member of his family to be born in America.  His parents had immigrated two years earlier and settled in Zumbrota, Minnesota.  Strom graduated from Luther College in 1891 and became a math and Latin teacher at his hometown high school.  After a year of teaching, he entered Luther Theological Seminary where he received his Candidate of Theology degree.  He then became a pastor in North Dakota, where he met and married Helene Nedrud. Strom left North Dakota for several calls in Minnesota, the last being from a congregation in Watson, Minnesota where he remained for 32 years.  After his retirement in 1941, he and his wife moved to St. Paul where he died in 1954.
