Note*

George Nielson, was born in Denmark in 1861 and came to the United Statesat the age of 21. His first winter here was spent at Blair, Nebraskawhere he knew a family. He lived in a lean-to and frequently awoke tofind snow on his bed. The following year he moved on to Tilford, SouthDakota where there was a Danish settlement. En route, he bought a ticket on the stage linefor a part of the journey but as it turned out he walked most of the waybecause the roads were so muddy that the horses could not pull the heavyload. His first homestead was on Sour Dough Creek northwest of Hulettwhere he spent one winter cutting poles to fence it. He didn't see anyone during that longwinter and about the first of April two cowboys from the J H Ranch rodein to see what had happened to ‘Copenhagen’. He told the story that hewould have frozen that winter if his pet tom cat had not slept on thefoot of his bed and kept his feet warm. He had worked the range as a cowboy prior to taking upthe homestead and returned to the range for summer work and spend thewinters in Tilford. One of his sisters was living there by this time.He had taken up a ranch on the Belle Fourche River about ten miles northof Alva and when he married Lulu Amanda in Alva, he took his wife there to ranch. There were six Neilsen children, Grandma Ruland attended at all of thesebirths, as well as many others in the area. Mrs. Neilsen also was onhand for many new born infants. The closest doctor was in Sundance orSpearfish, 50 miles away. Later Hulett did acquire the services of adoctor but even then most of the births were not attended by him. George Nielsen died in 1928, leaving Lulu with four teenage children andthe responsibility of a ranch. She managed to hang onto the ranch duringthe depression when many around were unable to do so. All three sons andMerlin O’Haver were on hand to help with the work.

Note*

Alfred Nilson arrived in Belle Fourche, South Dakota the 15th of July,1892 on his nineteenth birthday, from Billinge, Sweden. Leaving Grimby,England where he bought a small Valise which held all of his worldlypossessions, he and a neighbor lad, Gene Hejde, started for America. Theship also carried cattle for other emigrants who were coming to a new and free country. They landed in Quebec, Canada, and bought a train ticket to BelleFourche, South Dakota. Somewhere through Iowa the conductor tore off thewrong part of their ticket, causing them trouble, as the next conductorwanted to send them back east. Not being able to speak English this wasrather frustrating to all. At Belle Fourche they were fortunate to contact a Mr. Bailey, who livedon Sour Dough, north of Aladdin. He gave them a ride that far, thenpointed out the direction they should go to get to Eothen. Mr. Hejdestopped at his brother Janes Hejde’s place two miles west of Aladdin.Here Alfred, with his little valise, alone in a strange country walked on to his brother Nils Nilson’shomestead, two miles west of the John Pearson sawmill at Eothen. Hearrived late in the evening, where he made the acquaintance of his threenieces and a nephew. A month long journey had ended. He worked at different jobs both in the Eothen, Wyoming and Spearfish,South Dakota areas. He hauled the first load of lumber from the Pearsonsawmill to Aladdin, to be used in the construction of the present Aladdin(Weaver) store. In 1893 he worked for W.W. 'Tobe' Driskill of Spearfish, at his CampStool ranch on Lytle Creek, east of the Devil’s Tower. Here he visitedwith William Rogers and Willard Ripley, ranchers of the area, who weremaking the pegs and other preparations to climb the tower. On the 3rd ofJuly Alfred drove a team and buggy from Spearfish, accompanied by two Driskill youths. Thealong with many others witnessed the climb of Rogers on July, 4th 1893.

Later, Alfred worked for Sam Moses for the Flying V Cattle Company on theMoreau River in South Dakota. In 1900 he carried the mail for the contractor, Troed Pearson, fromAladdin, Wyoming to Hulett, Wyoming, with team and cart or horsebackleading a pack horse.
