Abstract

Scope and Contents of the Materials

The Eunice Gronvold Kalloch Papers primarily consist of materials related to the political career of her father, F.T. Gronvold. Also included are photographs, newspapers, periodicals, and books. In addition, there are materials about Eunice Kalloch Park in Albuquerque, the teaching career of Kalloch's mother, Alice Egeland Gronvold, and about the Ellingson Gronvold Hardware Store and Gronvold Motor Company, both in Rugby,

Fingar Thorsen Gronvold was born 25 April 1868 in Eggedal, Buskerud, Norway. He received his education at a common school in Norway and emigrated in 1886. Gronvold came to North Dakota and settled near Rugby. He owned and operated a hardware store called Gronvold-Halseth Company. He later went into the automobile business with his sons.

In 1899, Gronvold became active in politics and was elected to the North Dakota House of Representatives as a member of the Republican Party. He was elected to the state senate in 1908 and held this seat until 1918. In 1930, he returned to the senate and served until his death on 7 November 1941. Gronvold was involved in community affairs, serving 23 years on the Board of Directors for the Good Samaritan Hospital in Rugby. He was also a member of the Rugby City Council.
