Score, an energetic farmer of Section 1, Cumberland Township, was born in Lakeland Township, Barron County, on May 25, 1892, the son of Ole J. and Helena (Severson) Score. He attended the district schools, learned farming from his father, and from earliest boyhood has experienced the breaking, development and working of farm land. In 1917 he rented a farm, and that fall bought his present place of 80 acres. He has made general improvements to the buildings, and has continued the stumping and clearing. He successfully carries on general farming and dairying, and has a good herd of Holsteins, headed by a full-blooded sire. He is one of the active and popular men of the community, and is doing his duty as a good citizen. He is at present a member of the school board. Mr. Score was married June 20, 1917, to Mary Steen, who was born Nov. 2, 1890, the daughter of John and Gunhild (Rogstad) Steen, who are farming in Stanfold Township. Mr. and Mrs. Score have one son, Lawrence M., born May 20, 1918. The family faith is that of the Norwegian Lutheran Church. --Taken from: History of Barron Co., Wisconsin, H. C.
