  Elene Clara Bjorgo Elene Bjorgo was hired by Carl M. Orpen & his wife Ethel (Astrid) Orpen to help in their home in the late 1930s. Carl Orpen had an out of marriage relationship with Elene which produced a son Dewiin James to Elene a single mother. Elene Gave birth to her son in St. Paul, Minnesota at the Salvation Army Maternity Home on October 16, 1937. Dewiin James was baptized on January 21, 1938 in St. Paul, by Pastor J. Frederick Otto. Witnessing the baptism were Mrs. Blanche Reno and Miss Mary Rasmussen from the Salvation Army Maternity Home. Elene and "Jimmy" as she called him, lived together for about 3 years until Elene met Carl Wallace Wilson. Elene fell in love with Carl and Carl told Elene he wouldn't marry her unless she gave her son up for adoption. Elene agreed to that and Dewiin James "Jimmy" was adopted. There was family bad blood spilled over in the Bjorgo home when Elene decided to chose Carl W. Wilson over her son Jimmy. Elene's mother had nothing to do or say to Carl Wilson after he married Elene. This story was told by Elene's sister Mabel Altina Bjorgo who witnessed Carl & Ethel (Astrid) Orpen come to the home of her parents in Phelps, MN and talking with Elene Bjorgo's parents (Alfred & Leta Bjorgo) regarding the fact that Carl was the biological father. The meeting at the Bjorgo house was held in Alfred & Leta's bedroom which was next to the kitchen divided only by a fabric curtain and overheard by Mabel Bjorgo when she was 15 years old. Mabel remembers Jimmy was with his mother for 3 years before he was adopted.
