- THE BROWN ANDERSON BRANCH
9 BERNT AUGUSTINUS BRUUN ANDERSON (known as BROWN ANDERSON) was born April 7, 1851, in Albion township, Dane county. He attended Luther college, Decorah, Iowa, where he graduated from the teachers' department. However, instead of going into the teaching profession, he took up salesmanship and worked in that capacity for several years until he opened a business place of his own at Caledonia, Minn. About that time he began his domestic life, being united in marriage to Caroline Hemri, March 11, 1876. She was born in Naer0dalen, Norway, January 8, 1853. Her father, silversmith Ole Hemri, died in his native land, and the mother, Marta Berkvam-Hemri, came to Blackhammer, Minn., with her six children, Caroline being then about six years old. The couple lived in Housron, Minn., for a short time, and in 1881 Brown opened a restaurant in Spring Grove, Minn., which he conducted until later years. Aside from his business, he auctioneered, and he bought a farm near Reeder, N. D., which he managed on a share-crop basis. During the last years of his life he became interested in big league baseball, and as an ardent "Cub fan" he would listen by the hour to broadcasts of games. Caroline died August 30, 1924, and Brown followed her to the grave September 24, 1935. Children born of the union were: Martha (9a), Bernhard (9b), Albert(9c), Anna(9d), Carl (9e), Emil (9f), Inga (9g), Frederick (9h), and Rudolf (9i). [2]
