Metal detector find links Iowa family to 1906 wedding ring

Cedar Rapids hobbyist Casey Oberreuter uncovered a 1906 wedding ring in Benton County. The ring, engraved EO JA and dated 9 5 06, led to historic ties with Elizabeth Olson and John Anderson, Norwegian immigrants, and the North Benton Lutheran Church community now part of Trinity Lutheran. Doug Anderson, Elizabeth’s grandson, retrieved the ring and shared memories with Oberreuter. The ring’s return honors family history rather than value.
