"Uncle Bill."

Here is his obituary from the Calgary Herald:

KENNEDY _ William Thomas William (Bill) passed away peacefully at Newport Harbour Care Centre on July 18, 2005 at the age of 92 years. Both sets of Bill's grandparents were pioneer Calgarians, coming here in 1888 and 1900. His father was Calgary's first paperboy. Bill was born on July 4, 1913 in Calgary. He was the first baby baptized in Knox United (Presbyterian) Church. During the Depression, Bill worked in the theatre business at the Strand here in Calgary.

Hanne is the great granddaughter of Hans Ellingsen Sæliplass, who was a first cousin of Hans Zakariasen. We visited her and her family in July 2015 where we were shown many pictures of her family going back three generations. She said that she believes that the house in which Hans lived is no longer there but it might be what is now the outhouse/barn.

The Bygdebook for Heimveg says that he took over the farm in 1918, and proceeded to rebuild the houses and gardens. So the house that we saw in 2015 was not the one built by Hans in the 1860s.
