Of Tarje's children, Ed and Otto both lived in and modernized the Grover Homeplace.  Among other improvements, Ed introduced telephone service and Otto was among the first of Clay County's rural residents to have electricity.  Mary spent her adult life on the homeplace. Gus eventually settled on a small farm just north of Glyndon. Alexander and Christian built their own farmhomes not far from the homeplace in Moland Township.  Louis and Elise Olson's home was just outside of Lake Park MN. The Sandwicks made their home in Oregon.
