Download or read book Minnesota Pioneers 1871 written by Ozzie Sollien and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-05 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minnesota Pioneers 1871 is the third book chronicling a small group of Norwegian immigrants to America in 1861 and their remarkable lives as settlers, soldiers and pioneers on the American Frontier. The story is based on a manuscript by Mathilde Berg Grevstad, daughter of Ole Iver Berg, a central figure in the founding of the village of Lake Park. It is a first hand account about the trip from Fillmore County to Becker County and the everyday life of pioneers who were the first to set foot on unsettled land in the American Midwest. Ole Iver was a close friend of the Hansen brothers, Hans and Olaus. While Olaus after the Civil War became a soldier in George Custer's 7th U.S. Cavalry, Ole Iver and Hans - another veteran from the war - kept close ties and in 1871 migrated to Becker. Hans became the first blacksmith in town. Through Mathilde's story and new research the book tells us about the harsh conditions the settlers met in the unbroken wilderness - a vast country of mosquito filled marshes, snow storms, hail storms, massive, destructive swarms of grasshoppers, fleas, lice, bedbugs, blackbirds - and Indians. However, through undaunted courage and persistence the pioneers carved out a niche on the Frontier by utilizing Minnesota's abundant wildlife and productive soil - and the Northern Pacific Railroad - creating a community with social, political and religious life which exists to this day. Also watch out for the two previous books: "From the Hornets' Nest to Custer's Last Stand" and "Suicide by Army Life".
Download or read book A Heritage Not Forgotten written by Marvin B. Eppard and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Heritage Not Forgotten is based on the adventurous lives of four of the author’s great-grandparents who were among the first settlers in Mower County, Minnesota, in the 1850s. Adam left his family in Germany, sailed the Atlantic, worked at a lumber camp, and hopped the freight trains to arrive in Wisconsin as a farm laborer. Matilda, a teenage girl, left Hamburg with her family for a grueling journey to Wisconsin. The book includes the romantic account of Adam and Matilda’s courtship and marriage in Wisconsin and their eventful journey to Minnesota by covered wagon. Phillip, a lonely, discouraged young man, left Germany and worked his way through the port in Amsterdam onto a ship bound for New York. As a lumberjack and a farm hand, he found his way to Minnesota Territory. Lucinda, as a nine-year-old girl, traveled with her family about six hundred miles by covered wagons from Ohio to Minnesota Territory. When she was sixteen, Phillip convinced Lucinda’s father that she was old enough for courtship and marriage. Woven into the stories are the faith longings of these four people that drew them to transforming conversion experiences that sustained them through the hardships of pioneer life. These two couples conscripted land, raised large families, and were pillars of faith who helped establish a dynamic church in the author’s hometown of Racine, Minnesota.
