His family line is directly descended from the Viking kings. Two Viking kings are buried on the Hauge farm. There are two hills, and as was the custom the entire ship is buried with the body. Hence the name Haugen. Gilbert graduated from school and received a certificate in engineering. When he was 19 years old, he came to America with three brothers. Much of the migration in those years was caused by the feudal system which prevented freedom in self development. Gilbert located first in Ada, Minnesota. In 1885 he came to North Dakota and lived on a homestead 14 miles west of Medford (now Fordville). In 1888 he married Miss Bertha Severson and to this union four children were born. In 1891 fire destroyed their home and they moved to Inkster where he was employed by the Reitan Company Implement business. In 1894 they returned to farming in Cleveland Township one mile east of the Zeman farm, then the Praha post office. Gilbert was clerk of Cleveland Township for many years. His wife and infant daughter died in 1897. Gilbert remained unmarried after the death of his wife. None of the children were married. He continued farming until 1905 when he moved to Bismarck where for 17 years he was state deputy land commissioner. He died in 1936 at the age of 73 and is buried in Quale Cemetery. Mr. and Mrs. Haugen were charter members of Quale Lutheran Church. Carrie Haugen is the sole survivor and lives in San Francisco, California.
