Note from Kristin Peterson: Farrell vs. Mulholland
On the left is the marriage application for John Sivertson and Margariet Mulholland. Both John & Margaret were 45 years old. There is a possibility that Margaret was married prior to marrying John and her married name was Mulholland with her maiden name being Farrell.
John's obituary above mentions he was married to Margaret Mulholland.
