2/117
This photo album is dedicated to my grandparents Al and Eunice Nelson. They were ordinary - yet at the
same time - quite extraordinary people when one considers their backgrounds, experiences and accom-
plishments. Through a combination of love, hard work, persistence, good luck and the grace of God, they
did a remarkable job raising a family.
When I started this project it was merely to scan a collection of old negatives Id found. As I went through
the collection of prints, negatives and old photo albums in my moms storage, my relatives became more
multi-dimensional and real to me. I always thought of my grandparents as good and hardworking. But as I
poured through the letters, postcards, photos and photo albums I c ame to see my grandparents as romantic,passionate, goofy and adventurous as well. I realized all this rich family history was going to remain mostly
unseen unless I put it into an orderly, accessible form. This album is the result of that realization.
I want to thank my mom Judy and my aunt Jean for helping identify the who, where and when of many of
these photos. Thanks to my cousin Laurie too for facilitating the photo viewing sessions for both of them.
I also want to thank my cousin Nick Dowdy for doing a lot of the research for the family trees that are
included in this album.

The Nelsons and the Norgaards, South Dakota - 1921
In the spring of 1869, a young Nels Norgard came to came to South Dakotato homestead a farm six miles from Del Rapids. He had come to the UnitedStates from Aalborg, Denmark. Mr. Norgard left on a ship in which most of the
passengers were immigrating Scandanavians. It was six week trip on hazardous
seas with bad storms . Several of the passengers became ill and died. But eventu-
ally Nels made it.In the spring of 1871, full of hope he broke a small piece of land and prepared
a home for the girl who had promised to marry him. The young homesteader
worked diligently through the summer and when the weather turned cold he
returned to Iowa.
In the spring of 1872 a caravan of prospective settlers left Iowa for Minnehaha
County. Among the travelers in covered wagons was Miss Carrie Sorensen of
Harlan. In another was Mr. Norgard. Desiring to be married in the state they
had chosen for their future home, they waited until they reached Sioux Falls.
There in June of 1872 they exchanged their marriage vows.
The happy bridegroom assured the bride a home - a sodhouse that seemed to
be one with the expanse of the prairie. Nels and Carrie Norgard lived a hard yet
productive pioneer life replete with sometimes not-so-peaceful encounters with
Indians. They raised a family of nine children: Tena, Anna (Al Nelsons Mother),
James, Charley, Lena, Nellie Rosy and Lillie (twins) and Emma.

Norgaard in Appendix, page 93 )

The Kenworthys were Clara Greers blood relatives. Clara was referred to as Clara Kennie Greer.
Kennie was short for Kenworthy. Clara was adopted by the Greers at a very young age. Her father
was Joseph E. Kenworthy. Unfortunately we have no photos of him or Claras mother. Its hard to sur-
mise but most likely Claras birth occured under embarrassing circumstances - possibly an extramarital
affair. So the Greers adopted Clara and she took on their name. Eunice Clara Merrill kept in touch withher Uncle Frank Kenworthy (Claras brother or half-brother) and his family through the 1950s.
