When he was 9 years old the family moved to Hay Springs, Nebr., where he spent his boyhood days with his brothers and sisters on a farm in that community. When he was 21 years old, the family again moved, this time to El Campo, Texas. In 1906 he returned to Stratford and here he met and married Nellie Berglund. Of this union four children were born, the first of whom died in infancy. The others are Melvin Angstrom (Engstrom) and Oscar Engstrom of Stratford, and Ethel, now Mrs. Raymond Schlacter, of Braham, Minn.
