Isak Siegstad

Isak Ole Hendrik Siegstad (born January 15, 1898 in Nattoralik , † May 29, 1943 in Kangaatsiaq ) was a Greenlandic catechist and councilor .

Isak Siegstad was the ninth child of Dauphin Guldbrand Otto Siegstad (1852-1918) and his wife Lydia Johanne Sara Jeremiassen (1857-1941). His birthplace has been deserted for a long time and is likely to have been about two kilometers east of Ikerasaarsuk . He married on September 9, 1921 in Aasiaat Salomine Sofie Frederikke Johansen (1900–1962) from Iginniarfik , daughter of the seaman Karl Jørgen Johansen and his wife Thale Katrine Karen Kirstine. The marriage resulted in the daughter Mette Louise (1927–?), Who was married to Marius Abelsen (1929–1972). Isak Siegstad was elected to Grønlands Landsråd in 1939 , but died of tuberculosis during the legislative period and was therefore replaced by Nikolaj Rosing last year .
