Burial	Note The FindAGrave.com entry for this Alfred Emil Peterson is mostly incorrect. It gives his mother's name as Christina Jespersen, which was her name in her second marriage; her maiden name was Brodersen. The record shows his headstone labeled "Husband Alfred Peterson, Apr. 3; 1889; Apr. 25, 1955" together with another labeled "Wife Hellena Peterson...." Alfred Emil Peterson was. born on November 1, 1889, in Washington County, Nebraska. He died on March 15, 1955, in Omaha, Nebraska. He never married and he is buried next to his brother, Ernest Peterson, and sister-in-law, Pauline Peterson. The Alfred Peterson who is shown on FindAGrave does not have the same dates. Other records show that he was born in Finland and spent his life in Washington (state). Presumably his grave is there, too, and the grave pictures are incorrect (see the correct one attached to this record). That Alfred Peterson was living in Washington (state) at least into 1940 (Lynden Twp, Lynden, Whatcom, Washington, USA). The picture on Alfred on FindAGrave appears to be correct, however, and it is unknown how it was obtained.		3c
