Almon W. Sherman
Source: A Pioneer History of Becker County Minnesota, by Mrs. Jessie W. West & Alvin H. Wilcox (1907) Chapter XX; transcribed by Vicki Bryan
Almon W. Sherman was born at Monkton, Chittenden County, Vermont, on the 9th day of May 1803, and was married to Lois H. Cutler on the 14th of May 1835.
Mr. Sherman came to Otter Tail County, Minnesota, on the 19th day of May 1865. There were sixteen families in the party, and they were the first settlers in Otter Tail County. After residing in that county for three years he in company with four other men came to Becker County, arriving on Section 18 in Detroit Township on the 28th day of June 1868. His farm was afterwards purchased by the county for a poor farm, but for several years past has been the home of Lars O. Ramstad. Mr. Sherman built a house and wintered with his family during the winter of 1868 and 1869 at Oak Lake, with no neighbors nearer than White Earth in one direction and the Otter Tail River in the other.
The winter was long and cold, and provisions were scarce and on one occasion, had it not been for unexpected assistance from Paul Beaulieu they would have suffered from hunger.
Mr. Sherman died at Oak Lake, on the 30th day of December 1869.
