In the fall of 1919, William Nyborg came into possession of his present ranch property by purchase. The tract comprises more than forty acres of land, of which seven acres is planted to prunes. This ranch is situated five miles west of Boise and to it he removed from Fremont county, where he owned a ranch property that he sold prior to taking up his abode in the Boise valley. Mr. Nyborg is a native of Mount Pleasant, Sanpete county, Utah. He was born May 19, 1875 (1874 per headstone), his parents being Andrew Olson and Engra (Hanson) Nyborg, both of whom were natives of Sweden but were married in Oklahoma. They went to Utah as converts to the Mormon church.
Their son, William Nyborg, was reared at Mount Pleasant and in young manhood came to Idaho. For a time he was in the vicinity of Idaho Falls and then went to Fremont county, where he became a prominent rancher, ultimately owning there two hundred and fifteen acres of excellent land, which he sold for more than eighty dollars per acre upon removing to Ada county. His present Boise Valley ranch is not large but is very valuable and is in a neighborhood where farm lands are selling at almost five hundred dollars per acre. The characteristic energy which enabled him to successfully manage and operate his ranch property will win for him prosperity as an orchardist.
On the 24th of December, 1906, Mr. Nyborg was married to Miss Laurinda Jensen, a lady of Danish descent, who was born at Mount Pleasant, Utah, May 3, 1886, a daughter of Peter and Laura (Hansen) Jensen, the former a native of Denmark and the latter of Utah. Mrs. Nyborg had removed with her mother to Fremont county, Idaho, when fourteen years of age. To Mr. and Mrs. Nyborg have been born five sons and a daughter: William Que, who was born October 29, 1907; Leoda, whose birth occurred August 26, 1909; Newland Jay, whose natal day was February 11, 1912; Andrew Glenn, born January 16, 1915; Addrin Engavor, born November 20, 1916; and Peter Dean, who was born on the 10th of December, 1919. One daughter, Viola, died when but six weeks old. She was the sixth in order of birth. Both Mr. and Mrs. Nyborg are supporters of the republican party, giving to it stalwart allegiance, and they are interested in everything that pertains to the welfare, progress and upbuilding of the district and state in which they reside.
