The citation is a web transcription of Charles C. Hansen's obituary, used to establish him as the husband of this woman. The research note reports the marriage date and place but does not quote the obituary, so the Jensen maiden name and the 'Inger Marie' form are unverified here. The 1944 death is explicitly not confirmed by this source. The record is consistent with the identification but does not directly state the claim.
Matches: Research note says the Tribune obituary of Charles C. Hansen names his wife, supporting that Inger Marie Jensen (Mrs. Hansen, AKA Mary) existed as his spouse; Marriage 3 Jun 1888 in Albert Lea is attributed to the obituary; Source is a Freeborn County obituary transcription, a plausible place for this family
Limits: No image and no transcription text of the obituary is given, so the wording cannot be checked; The note does not show that the obituary names her as Inger Marie or gives her birth surname Jensen; The claim's death year 1944 is not established by this citation; the note says it is only an Ancestry hint and was left blank; The source is a derivative web transcription of a newspaper obituary, secondary information; Birth year (~1868) is a hint only and is not supported here
