ALFRED: Born on Nebraska farm and attended country schools until he commenced to work. Only 14 years old when his father died, it was incumbent upon him to assume early responsibility in order to support the other six children. The writer remembmbers the numerous times he came to help on our farm and he was liked by all. When stacking oats or wheat, he and two of my brothers could eat half a bucket of apples at a setting. (It was up to me to fetch the apples). He married Bertha Frostrom Dec. 27, 1909 and moved to Valley, Nebr., where several of their children were born. Next they moved to a farm at Silver City, Nebr. Two of their children died in infancy, later one grown daughter, then his wife died Sept. 22, 1947. Alfred died shortly after, broken hearted and all.
