Occupation Farmer Kragero, Chippewa, Minnesota, USA
Source: Telemark to America Volume II - settlements Publication: Minnesota, USA, 1992
Citation Details: p. 140 Text: Gudmund S. Lia came directly to Milan in 1882 with his family, he is married to Kristiane, a daughter of Ole Grotnes. They bought a piece of land on the installment plan and began to farm it, this piece has grown to the extent through the years so that now it includes more than a section, well built-up and stocked with horses and cattle, yes, including an auto. Which shows what a "clean-cut" Telemarking can do. Gudmund's wife must have been used to working with cattle as she churns such delightfully good butter. Article written by C.R.C. Blom, July 1914.
