You learn something new every day. I was scrolling through Twitter today and learned that the mother of Matt Groening, the creator of The Simpsons , was born in Minnesota.
A recent Tweet sharing Matt s mother s obituary from 2013 shared that Margaret Ruth Groening was born in the small town of Chisholm in Northern Minnesota. The obit reads:
Born Margaret Wiggum on March 23rd, 1919 in Chisholm, MN, Margaret s parents Matt and Ingeborg Wiggum met on the boat coming to America from Norway. They settled in Everett, Washington.
Boats from Norway brought a lot of people to the Land of 10,000 Lakes. It s too bad Margaret s parents didn t settle here, but if they experienced a winter in northern Minnesota, I get why they left.
