A. G. ANDERSON DIES
FORMER PRESIDENT OF HAWARDEN STATE BANK
Death Came Sunday at Home of Daughter in Milwaukee — Burial at Big Springs
A G Anderson, late president of the Hawarden State bank, and still connected with that financial institution as chairman of the board of directors at the time of his death, passed away at Milwaukee, Wis., Sunday, Sept. 14th, at the home of his daughter and son-in-law, Dr. and Mrs. Walter B. Swaney. He had been in rather poor health for some time and while his death was rather sudden, it was not unexpected.
The body was brought to Hawarden Tuesday and the funeral was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Ring in this city, and continued at the Big Springs Baptist church Wednesday afternoon, Rev. R. A. Arlander of the Big Springs Baptist church, jointly with Rev. C. W. Heady of the First Baptist church of Hawarden, conducting the services. The remains were laid to rest beside those of his wife in the Big Springs cemetery. All of his children, including his son-in-law, daughter-in-law and grandson, were present at the funeral.
A. G. Anderson was born at Bultorp farm, Wiby county, province of Narke, Sweden, on Jan. 24, 1846, and had arrived at the ripe age of 73 years, 7 months and 20 days at the time of his death. He emigrated to America in 1868. He was united in marriage with Miss Mary Anderson of Big Springs in October, 1875. His wife preceded him in death March 12, 1892.
To this union were born one daughter Mrs. Walter B. Swaney of Milwaukee, Wis., and two sons, Arthur E. of Grand Junction, Colo., and Victor R. Of Calgary, Can., all of whom, with the daughter's husband and Arthur's wife, two grandchildren and his aged brother, Frans L. Anderson of Alcester S. D., now the only survivor of a family of seven, survive and mourn his death
Many years ago he became a Christian and united with the First Baptist church of Janesville, Wis., of which he was an esteemed member at the time of his death. He died with the feeling that he had accomplished his life work and was ready to go.
He emigrated to America in 1868 and was employed in various manufacturing plants in Wisconsin and elsewhere but finally became permanently employed with the Janesville Manufacturing Co. where he served as foreman of the metal department for a long time. He had learned the trade of blacksmith in Sweden and became very proficient in all metal work.
He retired from active work about seventeen years ago and since then has spent much of his time with his daughter, has spent many of the winters at Long Beach, Calif., and has traveled considerably, including one trip to Europe.
In 1900 he became associated with his brother, the late Peter A. Ring and his nephews, Arvid H. Ring and Andrew Ring, in the banking business in Hawarden and remained a useful member of the board of directors and the president of the bank until this summer when he retired from that office and became chairman of the board of directors.
While he resided in Janesville he filled many positions of public trust, the most important being that of member of the board of education for a long period.
