    Story
    After 1985 | Vermillion, Clay, South Dakota, United States
    My sisters Bertha Lambert, Clara Harrington, Hannah Rasmussen and myself, Mabel Jorgenson, have many memories of Pleasant Valley Lutheran Church and the Westerville community.

    Our Mother, Anna Wold arrived in the United States from Trondheim, Norway in 1882 at the age of 16. Our father Iver Hanson arrived from there in 1884 at the age of 19. They met and married in Sioux City, Iowa.

    In 1895 they moved to Westerville where they became members of Pleasant Valley Lutheran. Six of their seven children were born here, the eldest was born and baptized in Sioux City. The other six were baptized at Pleasant Valley. Three of us were confirmed here, the other four at Trinity Lutheran in Vermillion.

    Our father was custodian and Sunday School Superintendent at Pleasant Valley. He also participated in the Sunday Worship Service, always reading the lessons and offering the first prayer. He attended every funeral, tolling the bell during the procession before the funeral and when the procession went to the cemetery.

    Our father was a painter and carpenter and many of the houses and buildings he constructed are still standing in the Westerville area. He built the pulpit for the church. Many years later a new one was purchased, and we have been told that the one he built was given to Bergen Lutheran Church.

    At one time a building was erected to the north of the present church which was used to shelter the horses from the weather. Our father was the foreman and of course, the men of the church assisted.

    There was the time when the church pews needed to be refinished. The women thought they could remove the finish to help the painter. They used lye, and when the new finish was applied it did not dry, resulting in sticky pews, until the painter, Iver Hanson did the job himself.

    I also remember the Sunday when Pastor Warburg did not get to Sunday School. He did arrive in time to conduct the worship service with the explanation that their cow had fallen and broken her leg. He could not let her suffer, so he took the Sunday School time to butcher. Some members of the congregation frowned on that but in the interest of food for their table, I am sure the Lord understood.

    The men of the church made all of the decisions. They sat on one side and the women and children on the other. Our Mother was a devout Lutheran, along with the other women of the church was very busy raising a large family, and perhaps did not have the time to be active in t he church, had it been permitted. She died in 1952 at the age of 86.

    For all of the work he did at Pleasant Valley Lutheran Church, Iver Hanson received a plot in the cemetery as his pay.

    Due to declining health, he moved his family to Vermillion in May 1911. He died in June of 1914.

    My sisters and I have two living brothers. In 1985 the six of us are all over age 80. We attribute our longevity to our Norwegian Heritage.

  • Note
    (Research):Vera Mary Ghizoni was born to Thomas Ghizoni and Lillian Bennett in 1909. At this time, no record of birth has been found, nor has a record of the marriage of Thomas Ghizoni and Lillian Bennett. Research, though, has found this couple residing together as a married couple in the 1914 Sioux City Directory as Ghizoni Thomas (Lillian), checker Cudahy Pkg Co, r 217 S Linn. By 1916, though, it appears as Vera's parents are residing at two different residences, with Ghizona (sp) Mrs. Lillian listed as a boarder at 209 W. 8th and Thomas rooming at 1126 4th. No record of a divorce has been found, but Lillian "Bennett"

    M. Vera Drew is found in the 1920 census residing in the household of C.L. Drew (age 56) and M.Lillian Drew (age 39), listed as their daughter. She was 10 years old and they were residing in Highland, Madison, Nebraska. It would appear that sometime between 1914 and 1920 Vera's mother Lillian married a Mr. Drew. Six years later, in 1926, 18-year-old Vera would marry Melvin "Alex" Marriot Johnson and her name is listed as Vera Drew, age 18.

    Vera and Alex would proceed to have four children before divorcing: Floyd "Sonny" (b. 1927), Melvin Jr. (b. 1928), Richard "Dick" (b. 1930), and Betty Jean (b. 1931).

    By 1940, Alex was residing in his parent's house with Melvin Jr. and Betty Jean; Robert Floyd "Sonny" (age 12) and Richard Dean Johnson (age 9) were residing in the household of a Patrick F. Lennon (age 59) and Lillian M. Lennon (age 52), listed as grandsons. Vera was not living in the house with the boys and her mother. Sonny would at some point start going by the surname Lennon. It is unclear if this was an official adoption by Patrick Lennon and his grandmother or an unofficial name change. The rest of his siblings would continue using the Johnson surname.

    A record was found for the marriage of Patrick F. Lennon to Lillian M. Drew on 16 Feb 1926 in Le Mars, Iowa. The return of marriage states the bride's maiden name, if a widow, is Lillian Benton, residing in Elk Point, South Dakota, age on next birthday 38. Number of Bride's marriage 2. Groom was Patrick F. Lennon would turn 46 on his next birthday and this was his second marriage too.

  • Story
    The tale of Grandma Vera is very confusing at best. Vera had two marriaes that I am aware of the first to my Grandpa Alex, which resulted in four children, Melvin, Floyd, Richard and my mother Betty Jean. She cheated on Grandpa Alex and got pregnant by Anthony "Tony" Pomerico, put all the kids in an orphanage when my mom was approximately five years old. Grandpa Alex did not find them for at least six months. That fact and the resulting neglect from her father had a very profound effect on my mother. Vera's maiden name is Ghizoni, though the spelling is varied. [Her father] Thomas Ghizoni was a baseball player from Minnesota. Researching this was so crazy and I had to read out to my cousin, Bruce Lennon who is Floyd's only son and finally got it straight. Vera's mother, Lillian Benton did marry Patrick F. Lennon and they are identified and remembered as Grandma and Grandpa Lennon. As my mother explains it, G[randpa] Lennon had lost a son around Floyd's age, and when Floyd and Richard lived with them in the 40's census, he wanted to adopt Floyd only. Everyone else stayed with Grandpa Alex. As far as the Drew name (used on marriage license to Melvin "Alex" Johnson), my mom explained it to me but I did not write it down and I forgot exactly what the connection was but I believe it was not important.

    Sonny was born Robert Floyd Johnson on 29 Apr 1927 in Elk Point, the son of Melvin Alex and Vera (Drew) Johnson. He spent his early childhood in Elk Point until moving to Dakota City to live with his maternal grandparents, Patrick and Lillian Lennon. He always said Patrick was the kindest and the most decent man he ever met. He was honored to be adopted and have his name changed to Floyd Robert Lennon, but whether living in Elk Point, Dakota City, or Akron, he was always Sonny.

    Like a lot of young men during WWII, he skipped his senior year of high school and joined the United States Navy, serving in the South Pacific. After the war, he returned to Elk Point where he met the girl, who was to be his life partner for 74 years, Annabelle "Ann" M. Harter. They were united in marriage on 1 Jun 1948.

    They made their home in Elk Point. Sonny worked various jobs until joining the Rural Electric Association as a lineman. That job led to a job with Iowa Public Service, which he held for 41 years until retiring in 1989. A job transfer moved them to Akron in 1956, where they still reside.

    He loved being outdoors hunting, golfing, gardening, or pulling weeds. But fishing was his greatest passion. Their trailer at Pickstown, S.D., was their home away from home for 40 years.

    He was a natural athlete who was good at any sport he tried. He could fix or work on anything. In fact, he built and flew an experimental airplane. He loved flying and became a very good pilot. He was just plain handy at things, especially being a husband, father, and grandpa.

    He is survived by his wife, Ann of Akron; son, Bruce "Butch" (Rose Ann) Lennon of Akron; grandchildren Dawn (Michael) Poss of Sparta, Wis., and their children, Brad, Derek, Nathan and Andrew; DeEtta (Chris) Zwart of Platte, S.D.; Krista (Nate) Nelson of Hinton, Iowa, and their children, Gavin, Natalie, and Cooper; Aaron (Mandi) Schneider of LeMars, Iowa, and their children, Harmony, Liam, and Lainey; Brent (Jodi) Lennon of Marcus, Iowa, and their children, Brenna, Owen, and Avery; Cole (Kayla) Lennon of Akron and their children, Alyssa, BrookeLynne, JosiLynne, and Sonnie; and Kim (Omar) Hicks of Marcus and their children, Eban, Tayden, and Tinley; three great-great-grandchildren Natalee, Nixen, and Melody; siblings and in-laws Betty Larkin of Harrisburg, Pa., Roger Stone of Rapid City, S.D., and Patricia Pomerico of Huron, S.D.

    He was preceded in death by his siblings and in-laws Richard (Barb) Johnson, Melvin (Betty Jane) Johnson, Nick Pomerico, Elva Stone, John Larkin, and Richard (Betty Lou) Wacker.

    He will be truly missed by all who knew him, but now he can join his old fishing buddies, Jim and Eugene, for one more limit!
