Dave Anderson, a well known and successful farmer of Section 26, Lakeland
Township, and the son of one of its pioneers, was born in this township,
Aug. 2, 1888, son of Christ and Johanna (Hanson) Anderson. He was educated
in the district school and subsequently until 1911 worked for his father.
In that year the latter retired and Dave then bought 80 acres in Section
26, of which he has since cleared 20 acres besides erecting buildings. He
is doing a successful business as a general farmer and dairyman, his cattle
being grade Holsteins. He is also a stockholder in the Silver Lake cheese
factory. On June 18, 1912, Dave Anderson was united in marriage with Elsie
B. Cox, who was born in Bear Lake Township, Aug. 20, 1894, daughter of
William and Iva (Stevens) Cox, her parents being prominent farmers of that
township. Of this union two children have been born: Bernice J., May 26,
1916, and Clarence B., March 28, 1918.
