AXEL A. EBERHART - Vol III, pg 330-331
Axel A. Eberhart, an attorney at law of Minneapolis, was born in the province of
Vermland, Sweden, April 28, 1876, and his parents, Andrew and Louise Olson, were
also natives of that country. They came to America in 1881, settling first at
St. Peter, Minnesota, where they lived for two years and then removed to
Limegrove, Nebraska, where they took up their abode on a farm, the father
devoting his days to the further cultivation and improvement of that place until
his death, which occurred in 1900. His widow makes her home in Maskell,
Nebraska.
Axel A. Eberhart was educated in the public schools of Minnesota and Nebraska
and for three terms was a student in the University of South Dakota. He
afterward spent four years in the State Normal School at Mankato, where he was
graduated in 1902, and in the fall of the following year he entered the
University of Minnesota for the study of law and completed his preparation for
the profession by graduation with the class of June, 1906, at which time the LL.
B. degree was conferred upon him. The same year he was admitted to the bar and
in August, 1906, he began practice in Minneapolis, where he has continued.
Throughout the period he has been alone, save for a year and a half when he was
in partnership with Clinton M. Odell. He has membership with the Minnesota State
Bar Association and also with the American Bar Association.
On the 26th of September, 1918, Mr. Eberhart was married to Miss Minnie E. Berge
of Minneapolis. He is a representative of the Masonic fraternity and a member of
the Elks Club and the Civic & Commerce Association. During the World war he
acted as chairman of the legal advisory board in the sixth ward.
