I worked at the Lutheran Home of the Good Shepherd for three and a half years. Carol took up a secretarial course at Lake Region Junior College of Devils Lake. She worked at the Super Valu Wholesale Office for a few years, then at the Langdon Missile Base until she was transferred to Colorado Springs. In October, 1976 she was employed by Chuck Franks as secretary of the HUD Program at Sheyenne for one year, at which time the program was completed until a new' funding was received. Carol and her friend, Judy Ystaas, went to Colorado Springs. Carol worked for Capp Homes, where she met Bill Kubista, a native of North Dakota. Carol and Bill were married at the First Lutheran Church in Sheyenne on September 1, 1979. Both are employed and make their home in Colorado Springs, Colo. Carmen attended NDSU, Fargo, for two years. She worked at the Transcript in New Rockford for one year. Carmen married Robert Ludwig, son of Sylvester (Tim) and Gloria Anderson Ludwig of Brantford at the First Lutheran Church in Sheyenne on February 19, 1972. Robert served as an Army medic in Texas, North Carolina and Germany after he graduated from high school. They lived in New Rockford until July, 1973, when they moved to Brantford . In 1974 they moved into their new house there. Bob, now with Brantford Plumbing and Heating, formerly drove a scraper and truck for Sheyenne Sand and Gravel. They are the parents of three children: Matthew, born June 2, 1975; Nathan, October 4, 1976; and Andrea, October 2, 1978. Curt completed Business Administration at NDSU, Fargo, now in 1980. He has worked for the State Highway Department and at Ivan Tuntlands. The past three summers he was employed at Evenson Plumbing in Sheyenne. Corey attended school in Sheyenne seven years and Loren one year before we moved to the farm near Warwick. They are attending school at Warwick. Corey helps with the farm work at home. Henry and Bird Miller and their daughter and husband, Dorothy and Charles Stitzel. HENRY MILLER FAMILY Henry Miller, known by his many friends as "Ikie," was born in 1875 in Biblas, Germany. After arriving in the United States, he came to St. Peter, Minn., where he attended barber college. He plied his trade in St. Louis, Mo. for two years before coming to New Rockford in 1899, lived for a while at Galesville, Wise Here he met Bird Gallup. About 1900 he came to Sheyenne. After Henry and Bird's marriage, they lived at Sheyenne in their home, the one now owned by Chuck Franks. An infant daughter died in 1910; their daughter, Dorothy, in 1926. Henry owned a barber shop and pool hall for many years. He also owned a farm five miles south of Sheyenne, the one now owned by Ivan and Myrtle Tuntland. Here the Millers kept their herd of prize Guernsey cattle. Years later and after Henry's death, Bird offered this prized herd for sale, and much to the amusement of several of her friends, each of the critters listed on the sale bill carried one of their names. Bird prized also her friends! So many of the vignettes acted out during the Bicentennial celebration at Sheyenne took place those early years either at the Miller home or at the pool hall, where the men congregated to play cards. As an example, one evening several ladies dressed in their finest congregated at the Miller home for one of their "ladies only" parties. The fellows at the pool hall, having gotten wind of these plans, attired themselves in their worst get-ups and with a black kettle of stew, crashed that party. What went on from then on remains history. Bird always thought she had lived during the greatest years. She had been born January 9, 1877 and when she died in 1970, a host of good friends were left many treasured memories. Olga and George Millen GEORGE AND OLGA MILLEN The son of Robert and Letitia Dynes Millen, George Edward was born June 29, 1886 at Montague, Mich, and died February 26,1967. He came to Sheyenne in 1906 to live with his cousin, William G. Milne and farmed for a few years in Bush Township. George was foreman of the Eddy County road construction for 19 or 20 years until retiring in 1939 because of poor health. On May 22, 1937, George married Olga Marie Olson of Oberon. They made their home in Sheyenne, where George continued to raise and sell his gladioli (Millen Gardens) until his health failed. While Olga was in the Indian Service, they lived in Fort Totten, returning to Sheyenne upon her retirement. She was ever ready to serve one and all whenever the occasion presented itself. Olga, daughter of Peter (Uthus) Olson and Karine Johnson, was born July 23,18% in Superior, Wise and died February 11, 1972. Following training at Valley City State Normal, Olga taught for 10 years: at the Isabel School near Esmond; at Stoney Lake, Josephine, Fargo and Oberon country schools. Then she enrolled in a 3-year nurses training course at St. Luke's Hospital, Fargo. Upon graduation she did special nursing near Fargo until taking a position in New 156 Scanned with a Zeutschel Zeta book scanner at 300 dpi. Edited with Multi-Page TIFF Editor. |
