Text entered as it appears for the most part."Walter H. Jorissen was born in Holland on Dec 20, 1873. He came to the U.S. and was a Spanish-American War Veteran. After the war he came to Barnes County and married Elizabeth Thilmony on Oct 11, 1902 (the two is only partially visible and is a best guess). Her parents John & Anna Thilmony homesteaded in Cuba Township in N.D. The homestead is now the Lloyd Thilmony Farm home.
Mr. & Mrs Jorissen farmed in the Cuba & springvale township and later moved to Valley City, N.D. He worked at the Monarch Elevator in Rogers N.D. and the family lived in Valley City, N.D. The home was at the east end of town and the boys would herd the family cows to pasture on the west end, picking up extra animals on the way to the pasture. The streetcar operator, Mr Briggs would sometimes blow his whistle and cause havoc with the animals. He'd redeem himself by giving the kids a ride to North Valley and back on the streetcar. Mr Jorissen later managed the Farmers Elevator in Rogers and the family moved to Rogers. He later purchased a farm north of Rogers, the family grew up in that area. Mr. Jorissen died in 1948. Mrs. Jorissen made her home with Fred until her death in 1957. They had 8 children."
