Larson, 92, Minot, formerly of the Makoti and Roseglen areas and longtime owner and operator of Larson Implement in Makoti and later Magic City Implement in Minot, died Thursday, April 7, 2005, in a Minot hospital.

Edward was born on March 19, 1913, on the family homestead near Douglas, ND, the son of Theodore and Elsie (Hansen) Larson. His family purchased a homestead near Makoti, ND, in 1916. He attended school in Makoti and worked on the family farm. Ed and his father started as J.I. Case dealers in 1933 on the family farm, doing business as Larson Implement Company. In 1939, Ed purchased the business from his father and moved the business into a facility in Makoti. The business prospered, and a new building was built in 1948. Later expansion came in 1959 when Ed acquired the J.I. Case sub-branch in Minot, converting it into a dealership which he named Magic City Implement. He was honored as the top dealer for many years by the J.I. Case Company. He continued this operation until his retirement in 1983. He was recognized at that time for achieving 50 years of service as a J.I. Case Implement dealer.

Edward was once married to May Trihub. They were married in 1936, and together they raised three children, Audrey, Sharon and E. Neil. On June 5, 1960, Edward married Leona B. Snippen at Roseglen, ND. The couple moved to Minot in 1960 and Ed continued to be active in the farming operations near Makoti and Roseglen until 1998.

Edward was a life-time member of Hope Lutheran Church, Makoti, and the Makoti Threshers Association. He was also a member of the Sons of Norway, the Elks and Moose Lodges and the Eagles Aerie, all in Minot. He and Leona were active in the development of the Scandinavian Heritage Center in Minot, and they were honorary members of the Scandinavian Heritage Association.

Evelin Thomas Bird

Biography

Birth: Evelin Thomas Bird was born on 27 May 1885 in Woodbury, Iowa, United StatesB G O.^1,4,2,3
Marriage: He and Margaret Caroline Hansen were married on 24 June 1911 in Yankton, Yankton, South Dakota, United StatesB G O.^5,3
Death: He died on 13 August 1930, at age 45, in Sioux City, Woodbury, Iowa, United StatesB G O, Accident Proves Fatal to Mr. Bird. Thomas Bird of Elk Point, a former resident of Ireton, who was fatally injured Sunday night, Aug. 10th, when he was struck by a car, passed away at the Lutheran hospital in Sioux City at 5:20 last Wednesday evening. Death followed an operation for the amputation of his left leg below the hip during the afternoon but because of his weakened condition his system could not stand the shock.

The unfortunate man and Ronald Ringsrud drove a wrecking car eight miles east of Elk Point the night of Aug. 10th to haul in a car which had been damaged in a collision. On their way back they stopped and Mr. Bird got out to raise the damaged car higher off the road. While cranking the hoist a car driven by Arnold Klopstad of Spink, with Peter Qualle of Nora as passenger, came from the same direction and was traveling at a fast rate of speed. As it approached the wrecker it swerved in and Mr. Bird seeing the car coming placed his right foot on the running board of the wrecker but he was struck by the speeding car about three inches below the knee, crushing his left leg against the running board. After the speeding car had struck Mr. Bird it traveled on a short distance and turned over on its side. The injured man was picked up by a passing motorist and taken to Elk Point where he received first aid and then he was removed to the Lutheran hospital in Sioux City. The leg was badly crushed and the foot was hanging by parts of the skin and muscles. His foot was amputated at once but the operation for the removal of his limb was not performed until Wednesday when gangrene had set in.

Evelin Thomas Bird was born May 27, 1885, in Woodbury county near Pierson, Iowa, and so was some past 45 years of age at the time of his death. He lived in that section and later in Correctionville, Iowa, and received his education at these places. In 1911 he moved to Lake Andes, S. D., where he followed his trade of tinner and plumber for three years. On June 11, 1911, he was united in marriage with Miss Margaret Hansen of Elk Point. In 1914 he and his wife moved to Correctionville, then came to Ireton where they resided for 13 years. Five years ago he and his family moved to Elk Point and during this time he was employed as a mechanic in garages in that city. Mr. Bird was a good hard working man, well known and respected and his many friends in Ireton have the deepest sympathy for his wife and seven children at his untimely death.

He leaves to mourn his loss his wife and seven children, Marlin, Birdie, Maxwell, Margaret, Darlene, Ruth and Willard; his mother, Mrs. M. M. Bird of Correctionville; two brothers, Victor B. Bird of Los Angeles, Calif.; and Ray W. Bird of Aaronsburg, PA.; and two sisters, Verna B. Bird of Cherokee and Birdie B. Bird of Correctionville, Iowa.

Funeral services were held at the Immanuel Lutheran church in Elk Point at 10 o'clock Saturday morning with Rev. W. I. Aamoth officiating. Interment was made at Correctionville, Iowa. Many friends of the departed in Ireton drove to Elk Point Saturday and attended the Funeral.^6,7,3

Story:
Max T. Bird
(December 5, 1915 - October 24, 1971)

The Lusk Herald
October 28, 1971

Max T. Bird, Lusk, WY Banker, Dies Sun.

Max T. Bird, 55, executive vice-president of Stockmans National Bank of Lusk, who guided the founding of that bank in 1953 and was instrumental in building it to its present stature, died Sunday night at Niobrara Memorial Hospital about 7:30 of a coronary attack.

He had started a vacation period last week and intended to continue it this week with his wife. However, he had been called back to the bank a day and a half last week when bank examiners arrived and had spent Thursday and Friday at Cheyenne attending an installment credit conference. Saturday he and Mrs. Bird had joined their son, Barton, and attended the Chadron State College football game, and Sunday he and Mrs. Bird had dinner at Silver Spruce Ranch near Glenrock before returning home.

He became ill late in the afternoon and on advice of his physician Mrs. Bird took him to the hospital about 6:45.

Besides the tireless service he had rendered the Stockmans Bank through the years, despite several serious illnesses, he had become endeared to the community at large for his service to it in many capacities, and the flow of concern for his family, as people learned of his death, was recognition of him.

Rather than assuming positions of leadership in the community, he had accepted jobs to support the leadership of others. He was a member of the Congregational Church and for 15 years served as its treasurer and thus on its board of trustees. He had recently been named U. S. Savings Bond chairman for the county. He had been an early member of the draft board, treasurer for countless philanthropic campaigns. He was first vice-president of the Lusk Lions Club having been a member since coming to Lusk in 1947.

A lover of sports, he was commissioner of Pee Wee Baseball in Lusk for a number of years. His most ardent support was probably for the athletic program of the schools, but young people, in other activities, and especially in the 4-H program knew they could count on his help.

Max Bird was born December 5, 1915, at Ireton, Iowa, the son of E. Thomas and Margaret C. Bird. The family moved to Elk Point, S.D., when he was 10. His father, an auto mechanic, was killed when Max was 14, throwing much of the home responsibility upon the youth. Still he graduated from high school there and then began to work as bookkeeper for the Union County Bank. In his early years he had unusual experience in banking, saw the liquidation of the Union County Bank, and had a part in the establishment of new Bank of Union County of which he became cashier, and then was later to go through the organization of the new bank in Lusk.

On March 17, 1945, he married Madeline Scott at Hawarden, Iowa, and they observed their twenty-fifth anniversary here in 1970. They had one son, Scott Barton, who is a sophomore at Chadron State College.

Mr. Bird came to Lusk in 1947 to become cashier of the Lusk State Bank of which he was later promoted to executive vice-president, a position he held until 1952 when he resigned to become affiliated with the new Stockmans National Bank being organized. Mr. Bird was a member of the Masonic Lodge at Elk Point.

Surviving besides his widow and son are his mother, Margaret C. Bird, Sioux City, Iowa; three sisters, Mrs. Emery Chaussee (Birdie), Clear Lake, S. D., Mrs. Joseph Condron (Margaret), Sioux City, and Miss Ruth E. Bird, Denver; one brother, Willard Bird, Warner Robbins, Ga.; and an aunt, Miss Birdie Bird, Elk Point. The father, one brother and one sister died previously.

The funeral service was held this Wednesday morning at 10:00 from the Lusk Congregational Church with the Rev. Robert Boutwell, pastor, officiating assisted by the Rev. Frank Bozart, Edgerton, former pastor here of the Open Bible Standard Church. Music was by Mrs. Gerald Bardo, organist, Timothy Johnson, vocal soloist, and the church choir directed by Russell Olmsted. Mr. Johnson sang "The Lord's Prayer", and the choir "In the Garden" and "Now the Day is Over".

Active bearers were R. C. Bafford, Edgar Boner, Fred Branney, Richard Brashear, Walter Fernau, Henry Meyer, J. H. Shillenn, Henry Wasserburger II.

Honorary bearers were Andrew McMaster, W. L. Magoon, Vernon (Bunny) Chard, Venus Kilmer, Gerald Bardo, Nick Kaan, Sr., Don C. Taylor, Oscar (Moose) Thompson, H. E. Pearson, of Lusk, D. A. Shoopman, Cario, Neb.; Royce Nelson, Torrington; and Paul L. Howes, Jr., William C. Allen, Arnold H. Trautwein, Lee VanDeren, of Cheyenne.

Interment will be made Thursday in Grace Hill Cemetery at Hawarden, Iowa.

A memorial is being established for Niobrara County High School.⁵
