Morris Anderson is a native of Hale Township, this county, and was brought 
to his present farm by his parents in 1883.  He now owns 170 acres in section 
1, Chimney Rock Township, and carries on general farming, making a specialty 
of Durham cattle, Poland-China swine and Rhode Island Red chickens.  Mr. 
Anderson was born July 16, 1877, and with the exception of six years spent as 
a traveling salesman he has devoted his life to farming.  He was married in 
Minneapolis, Dec. 31, 1913, to Cornelia Carlson, of Chimney Rock Township, 
daughter of Carl and Anna (Hendrickson) Carlson, and they have one son, 
Eldridge Meachin, born July 2, 1905.  The family faith is that of the United 
Norwegian Lutheran church.  Mrs. Anderson's parents came to America from 
Varmland, Sweden, in 1887, settling in Chimney Rock Township.  Her father died 
in 1897, and her mother is still living on the old homestead.  Five children 
were born to them:  Charles, Emma, Beda, Cornelia and Julia, all living.
