BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
Vernon and Esther (Lundgren) Lindgren

Vernon, son of Betsy and Peter Lindgren, of Kulm served for three years in World War II. Most of the time was spent in North Africa and Italy. Vernon went into farming when he was discharged from the Army. Vernon's mother, Betsy, sister, Vivian, and brother, Gunnar, lived with him on the farm.

In 1950 Vernon married Esther Lundgren, daughter of Jenny and Signar Lundgren. Esther's brothers and sisters are: Mildred Anderson, Edwin, Evelyn, Caroline Lindgren, Rose Lindgren, all of Kulm; Robert (deceased); Clarence(deceased); and Erma Lindgren (deceased).

Esther and Vernon moved a houseto their farm so Vernon's family lived there until their deaths, Betsy in 1958, Vivian in 1971, and Gunnar in 1978. In 1952 Mark Signar was born to the Lindgrens. Mark graduated from Kulm High School and Bethel College. He married Carolyn Shodin,daughter of Rev. Ray and Marion Shodin of Eugene, OR. Mark and Carolyn spent five years on the farm and then due to the poor farm economy, decided to go west. They are living in Eugene, OR where they are both are employed.
