Larson, Theodore A. (11 Augl 1864 - 6 Dec 1926)

Theodore A. Larson, the son of Johanna and Nelson Larson, was born in La Crosse Co., Wis., Aug. 11, 1864. He married Emma Johnson May 11, 1889. Of this union were born one daughter, Mabel Josephine, who died June 4, 1926, and five sons, Bennie, Perry, Archie, Ernest and Leonard.

Mr. Larson was taken sick while working for Ross Paulson, who was doing work in the woods at Drummond, Wis., for the Rust Owen Lumber Co. He started for home, but died Dec. 6, 1926 on the train somewhere between Drummond and Rice Lake. His sons, Bennie and Perry were also working at Drummond, but they had not considered their father seriously ill, so he was permitted to start on the journey alone.

The funeral services were held at the family home in Columbia, Dec. 11, Rev. G. W. Longenecker, the Congregational Minister of Neillsville, officiating. Interment was made in the Columbia Cemetery.
