Per G. E. 11/11/2004- - Brita and Elling Winjum are mentioned in Robert E. A. Lee's book "Mathilda's Journey" as neighbors to Knut and Mathilda Lee in Spring Grove in the early years of Knut & Matilda's marriage. Unfortunately, Robert E. A. Lee did not go into the relationship of the Lees to the Winjums and gathered from the book that Mathilda Glasrud Lee was embarrassed with having an association with these Winjums and surely did not want anyone to conjecture a family relation to them--which there was.

Spring Grove Herald - March 28, 1918 - Suicide by Hanging - Elling O. Winjum, aged about 70 years committed suicide by hanging Tuesday afternoon in a hay shed near his residence on Black Hammer Street.
The body was first discovered by his neighbors about six o'clock who immediately summoned Dr. Helland. He cut down the body and awaited the arrival of Coroner Rhines and County Attorney Dahle, who decided an inquest was unnecessary.
Mr. Winjum was a man who associated with others very little and no reason, other than he had little means of livelyhood can be assigned to the rash act.
Funeral will be held Friday or Saturday from Engell & Sons undertaking parlors, Rev. A. O. Johson officiated.
