In 1890, Mr. and Mrs. Jensen
moved south to California and the Burrel district, where the father bought two quarter sections of land, upon which he built his home. However, no sooner had he established himself and his family in comfort than an accident, as sad as tragic, occurred to mar the happiness of his life. Mrs. Jensen's clothes caught fire while she was working around a sheet-iron stove, and so severely was she burned that she died soon after. Thereupon the bereaved father moved to Los Angeles with his six children, but fate continued to cast a shadow over his path and the youngest two of the family died with diphtheria. There were then left the sons, George, Harvey, Albert, and Charles.
