However, I explain that I do not write the original biographies of these early settlers, I just rewrite what the relatives send to the DUP. However, since I am County Historian, 1 do a great deal of research work in order to make sure of the facts in these biographies. Oftentimes 1 find interesting items about some of the people of whom I have been compiling biographies and, of course, add this material to the biography. Yesterday I had a visitor from Payson who wanted to know what information I had about the Samuelsons and I told her I had no information whatever. She said many Samuelsons are buried in our cemetery. However, I have never seen one grave with Samuel-so- n on the tombstone in the Fillmore Cemetery. I asked Jack Peterson, the caretake, and he, too, had never seen the name on a Fillmore Cemetery tombstone. This is just one of many instances. Therefore, I am asking those who write family histories to mention friends of the family and tell some family traditions. This may help other people with their research work. For instance, when 1 was writing "Builders of Early Millard, there were no biographies of two of our former neighbors, nor do I know any relatives. I knew they both were important people in the early settlement of Fillmore, therefore I got their births and deaths from the City Recorder and wrote a short biography about each of them. It will probably help some relative who is living in some other state, and it will pay tribute to these very worthwhile citizens. Todays biography is of Peder and Olene Elizabeth Jorgensen Hanson, the parents of Hans and James Peterson and their sister, Hannah. (The Danish had a habit of saying, Hans, son of Pqder, therefore, Hans, James, and Hannah had the name of Peterson instead of Hanson. Ova Petersons father was Peder Overson). I can remember Peder Hanson when I was a little girl of six years. I used to live with my Grandmother and Grandfather Hanson, which was the gathering place for many of the residents of Danish Town, as they called the southwest part of Fillmore at that time, since many Danish families lived in that section. On grandmothers block was the Hans Rasmussen home, the Christian Beauregards, the Sorensons, and the Christian Hansons. On the blocks near them were the Neils Iversons, the Kanute Rasmussens, the Young Hans Rasmussens, the Martin Hansons, the Ova Petersons, and the Peter Beauregards. However, the Peder Hansons and his soss, James and Hans Peterson, arid the Christian Andcrsons lived in the center and northern sections of town. They were all very closely connected and got together for coffee every few days. They never did give up their coffee nor did anyone try to get them to do so. nor did they stop the English from drinking tea. The word of wisdom was not stressed until later as Brigham Young asked that it not be stressed with the older converts since they had to work too hard just to exist. Peder Hanson was born December 4, 1816 at Strandby, Haarby, Odense, Denmark. He married Olene Jorensen in 1838. She was born February 22, 1814 at Corg County. Denmark. Besides their three children, Hans, James, and Hannah, they raised a niece, Lena, and a nephew, George C. Viele. They first lived in Deseret and cared for a farm owned by Thomas Callister. They came to Fillmore in 1866. They first lived in what was known as the Dame Place (later owned by my father at 2nd North and Main). They built their home on 5th North between 1st and 2nd West. They planted shade trees, a big orchard, and farmed the land. They helped build ditches, roads, sidewalks; in fact they all worked for one cause to help each other. Peder was an excellent horseman and rode a horse in a stately manner fitting a nobleman. He and his wife were very hospitable, especially to the Danish families. During the late fall and winter months Peder freighted to Piochc and Baker, Nevada. Peder lived to be 80 years old and died in February, 1896. His wife, Olene, survived him three years, dying December 25, 1899. Hans, the oldest son, married Isobcl Ashman; to Edward James married Anna Tonseth (half-siste-r Milgore); Hanna married Lafe Christophcrson; their nephew, George C. Viele, married twice and each wife died in childbirth leaving a son, George, by the first w ife and a son, Earle, by the second wife. George Viele was mayor of Fillmore as well as a Justice of the Peace and was called Judge Viele. Hyla Forbes is his granddaughter. Lena Hanson Peterson, Pedcrs niece, married Ralph Rowley and had a large family. May McBride was a granddaughter of Lena Rowley. William Peterson is a grandson of Hans and Bishop Lawrence Peterson. LaVar Peterson, LaVerna Railsback, Ella Pursell, Laura Wilson. Bucla Berry, and William Mace are grandchildren of Hans and his Peterson.

June's son, Daryl, his wife and five children brought June and her youngest son, Gregory, to Fillmore, where they were house guests at the home of her sister, Mrs. A. Paul Robison. They were joined by June's daughter, Sheri Lyn, her husband, Jim Hartnett, and her two daughters, Tami and Jami Junes brother, Lyn. Scott Chesley, and his wife, Nona, and their daughter Julie, husband Don deJong, and two children from Stockton, California attended the pageant one of the nights. The Chesley family grew up in the town of Kanosh. Their grandmother, Mary Anne, was a younger sister of Aunt Nell Bird, who was a character in the pageant, who provided the narrative story for the play. Relatives coming from out of town to attend the funeral of Bonnie McBride were Pat and Mollie McBride and her sister Mary, Dorothy McBride, Lloyd and Millie Dallas, and Vance Wilson. Sonny and Artys and two children spent three days with Paul after Bonnie's passing. Carma and George Beacham and six sons came from Newcastle last week and took her mother, Mrs. Arthclla Taylor, on to Salt Lake to sec the Ice Follies. They stayed overnight with Diana and Frank Allred and five children. The morning of September II, 1979 they all went to the airport to see the Bcachams' son Joel leave on his mission to Atlanta, Georgia. It was reported to be the largest group of missionaries to leave at one time. A visit to the Fair comthe pleted enjoyable (rip to the City.
