Almanzo & Laura Ingalls Wilder's Relatives
Research into historical documentation of the life of laura ingalls wilder has been a hobby (my husband would call it a passion ) of mine for many years.
http://members.tripod.com/~PennyN/

Extractions: Research into historical documentation of the life of Laura Ingalls Wilder has been a hobby (my husband would call it a "passion") of mine for many years. While doing genealogical research on my own family at the National Archives, I was unexpectedly led to an 1880 Federal Census page from the Dakota Territory (later to become North and South Dakota) and was startled to find the family of Charles and Caroline Ingalls among the names listed before me. Up to that time, I had not read Laura's books and rarely watched TV's "Little House on the Prairie." Until this historical "revelation," I had not realized that the Ingalls were real people. My intrigue with this fact took me back to my local library where I consumed all nine of Laura's juvenile "fiction" in short order. Inspired by her clear portrait of pioneer life, I began looking for biographical information about the author of these captivating stories of American history. Unlike today - when there are literally dozens of biographies about Laura Ingalls Wilder - very little information was available at that time. So, I decided to start my search for facts about the Ingalls and Wilder families in the documents that had "gotten me hooked" in the first place - census records. Upon inspection of the census pages, I suddenly realized that there were several discrepancies between data found there and what Laura had written in her books. For example: The 1880 census gave Carrie's birthplace as Kansas, but she appears as "baby Carrie" in Laura's first book, "Little House in the Big Woods," which is set in Wisconsin and takes place *before* the Ingalls moved to Kansas (the setting of Laura's third book, "Little House on the Prairie"). Similarly, the 1860 census for Malone, New York, (when Almanzo was only a year old) mentions a "Laura A. Wilder - age 16. There was no mention of a *sister* named Laura in "Farmer Boy" - Laura Ingalls Wilder's biography of a year of her husband's life as a child in upstate New York.

http://www.blackhills-info.com/deadwoodmag/Laura.htm

Extractions: LAURA INGALLS WILDER Pioneer days described in 'Little House' books Laura Ingalls was two months shy of her 16th birthday when she began teaching in a cold, drafty, abandoned claim shanty on the Dakota prairie. Some of her five students were older and taller than the young teacher who so desperately missed her family-Pa and Ma, Mary, Carrie and Grace-back home in DeSmet. Many years later, millions of children, and grownups, became acquainted with Laura and her pioneer family through her Little House books and the subsequent television series. A young homesteader named Almanzo Wilder came courting the young teacher, appearing regularly at the schools where she taught for the next three years, until she finally married him in 1885. Laura lived the pioneer life described in her books-in Wisconsin, Kansas, Minnesota, Iowa and DeSmet, South Dakota, where Pa Ingalls finally settled. But it was many years later, long after she and Almanzo had moved to Missouri, when she began to put her childhood memories on paper, strongly encouraged by her daughter Rose. Little did Rose realize that her own reputation as a writer would be eclipsed by her mother's fame. The first book

Extractions: Laura Ingalls Wilder American writer "It is still best to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures and to be cheerful and have courage when things go wrong." Introduction Laura Ingalls Wilder is best known for her series of well-loved children's books. It was at the age of 65 that Wilder published her first book entitled Little House in the Big Woods. This first book and those to follow tell a near autobiographical tale of her own childhood. Her life as a pioneer girl is told from the perspective of a child and it is in this voice that she is able to communicate her early life so successfully to the children who continue to read her stories. Father's influence Early education Wilder's schooling was sporadic. She attended several different schools in her youth. Each move of her family meant she would have to start her education again in a new setting and often times no school was yet available. Her father, however, had made the promise to her mother that the children would receive a consistent education. The schooling she did receive took place in one-room school houses beginning with the Barry Corner School in Pepin, Wisconsin, when she was four. In 1880, when Wilder was 13, she finally found some regularity in her schooling. After her father had made the decision to stay put for a while, she and her sisters were able to attend the school in De Smet. Her formal education continued in De Smet until she was 16, although she never graduated.

Information about laura ingalls wilder, books about her life and links to the places she wrote about.
http://lauraingallswilder.com/

Extractions: When LAURA INGALLS WILDER started writing her classic "Little House" book series in 1932, she had no idea of creating fame for herself or the places where she had lived. She wrote simply to preserve tales of a lost era in American history, the pioneer period she vividly recalled from her growing-up years on the midwestern frontier in the 1870's and 1880's. When Laura completed her eight-volume series in 1943, she had achieved a lasting and substantial literary picture of pioneer life as she had experienced it in Wisconsin, Kansas, Minnesota, and South Dakota. "I had no idea I was writing history," Laura remarked when her books were well known both in America and in foreign countries where they were translated. (The books are now printed in over 40 languages.) But readers of all ages accepted the Ingalls and Wilder families as chosen friends. Thousands wrote to Laura at her home on Rocky Ridge Farm in Mansfield, Missouri. Fans sought out the sites of her books and stopped to visit her in her Ozark Mountain home, right up to her death in 1957 at the age of 90. The visiting still goes on. Immediately after Laura's death, the home she and her husband Almanzo built was preserved and opened for readers. In De Smet, South Dakota, a Laura Ingalls Wilder Memorial Society was founded to offer history and hospitality to increasing numbers of summer tourists. Through the years, each of the book sites has joined the ranks of literary-historical spots dedicated to the pioneering spirit and writings of Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Pepin, Wisconsin
Part of the site laura ingalls wilder, Frontier Girl. Pictures, about Little House in the Big Woods, and Pepin today.
http://webpages.marshall.edu/~irby1/laura/pepin.html

Extractions: See more pictures here. Laura Elizabeth Ingalls was born in a log cabin seven miles north of Pepin, Wisconsin , on February 7, 1867. Her first book, Little House in the Big Woods is about her childhood years here in the Big Woods of Wisconsin. This book is full of the stories Pa told Laura when she was a little girl, as well as the family's way of life. She describes a butchering, smoking of venison, food preparation, the making of bullets, hunting, and weaving hats of straw, activities that most children today are unfamiliar with. She tells of the Christmas where she got her beloved rag doll Charlotte, and of playing with cousins, and making molasses-on-snow candy. She also tells of going to town for the first time and picking up pebbles with her sister Mary along Lake Pepin. Although Laura writes in On the Banks of Plum Creek that she and Mary began school for the first time in Walnut Grove, they actually attended the Barry Corner School near Pepin for a short time, with Anna Barry as their teacher. The Ingalls family left Pepin in 1868 and went to Missouri, and then Kansas, before returning to Pepin in late 1870. The family left Pepin for good in 1874 and moved to
