The Ole Henden family had a complicated relationship with Matt and Johanne Jurgenson's family. Alma lived with her uncle and aunt Matt and Johanne after her mother Oline died, and knew the Jurgenson children fairly well. Although Matt's older children aren't (immediately) related by blood to Alma, she thought of them as cousins just like the younger Jurgensons. She called them "shirttail relations".

     Alma's daughter Betty got reacquainted with Martin and Annie's sons Bob and Harris in Oregon in the 1980s, as well as Tom Beldin and Carole Hanson, Milla's and Judy's children respectively.10
