Andrew B. Anderson was born July 5, 1859, at Saude, Norway, and died in Roland April 5, 1932, at the age of 72 years and 9 months. He came to American in 1870 and settled with his parents near Roland.

When he was grown he started farming in the community nine mile southeast of Roland and lived there until 12 years ago when he moved to the new residence he built on Green street in Roland.

He was united in marriage to Julia Thompson on March 14, 1884. Ten children were born to this union, one of whom, Allie, is dead.
