We are happy to announce a new contributor to our blog. Betty Gunderson Woodbury has graciously sent in some of her collection of Mt. Pleasant memorabilia and will continue to send more as her time allows. Betty is a descendant of Anthon Gunderson and Andrew Beckstrom. So we look forward to seeing more history of Mt. Pleasant from a very gracious contributor.
The lady in this picture is Louise Beckstrom who lived across the street west of the Pioneer Monument in a house where Skyline Pharmacy's parking lot now stands. The Beckstroms owned that whole corner lot. This picture was taken before the Carnegie Library was built.
This website and your contributions are just wonderful! Thank you!
ReplyDeletep.s. I'm wondering if you have any info or photos on James Gunderson (Jens). He's a direct ancestor of my husband's, and we are trying to track down information about him. If anyone has any info, I would very much appreciate if you would contact me (melanies@daywesthealthcare.com)
