         [page 602-603]

         EDWARD ANDERSON, who is successfully operating a farm of 85
       acres in section 15, Modena township, Buffalo county, and is
       also the owner of another tract of farm land in sections 9 and
       10 consisting of 60 acres, was born on a farm in Dane county,
       Wisconsin, Feb. 17, 1872, son of OLE and GERTRUDE (UGULEN) AN-
       DERSON. He spent his youth up to the age of 15 years in this
       township and then began working for farmers in various parts
       of the county, after which he started in for himself by renting
       a farm in Modena township, which he operated for a year. After
       that he rented the LOOMIS farm in Gilmanton township for three
       years, and then bought his present place in section 15, Modena
       township, which then contained 80 acres, the other five acres
       having been later added by purchase. The original buildings were
       an old log house and barn, but the farm is now better provided
       with good buildings, as MR. ANDERSON erected a substantial barn
       in 1910 and a new house in 1915. As a stock raiser he gives his
       preference to Duroc-Jersey hogs, Jersey cattle and a good grade
       of horses, all of which he raises successfully. He is also a
       shareholder in the Modena creamery. At the present time (1917)
       MR. ANDERSON is serving as a member of the town side board, and
       also on the school board of his district. He belongs to the Modern
       Woodmen of America and was formerly councillor of his lodge. He
       married RUTH MOATS, daughter of IRA B. and CLARISSA MOATS, of
       Modena village, her parents having been pioneer settlers in this
       township. The children born to Mr. and Mrs. ANDERSON are WILMA,
       ALICE, COY, COLLIN, PHOEBE and LYMAN.
