Hanne Ravnholt: Pioneer Wisconsin Buttermaker, Reimert T. Ravenholt
Hanne Ravnholt: Pioneer Wisconsin Buttermaker, Reimert T. Ravenholt
The Bridge
The historical marker placed along Highway 35 near Luck, Wisconsin, commemorating the founding of Wisconsin's first cooperative creamery-the Luck Creamery Company-on the north shore of nearby Little Butternut Lake, West Denmark, notes that "the first Buttermaker was a Danish woman who made butter in large wooden churns." A brief history of this pioneering Danish woman was provided by her son, Ansgar Ravnholt, a few years before his death in 1964.1 This author, a grandson, has contributed additional details from more recently discovered records.
Danish Methodists In America, Arlow W. Andersen
Danish Methodists In America, Arlow W. Andersen
The Bridge
The separate histories of foreign-language missions present a special challenge to students of American church history. Descendants of the immigrants, more and more of mixed ancestry, lack the ability to read and translate material published in the language of their forebears. To make matters more difficult, the children and grandchildren of the pioneers often shun the tedious work of research and writing. Their handicaps apply to the offspring of all foreignspeaking peoples in America. Of the nineteenth-century immigrants, the Danes come to mind.

Laurs Christian Laursen, Betty Laursen Miller
The Bridge
When my younger brother and I were little, our mother often sang to us, and soon our voices would be joining in with "Venter Paa Far"--Waiting for Father. This song is about two little blueeyed children who press their ' noses against the window pane as they eagerly await their father's homecoming. It ends with a happy rush to the door when they hear him approaching, and the words change to a joyous shout of "Her Kommer Far"--Here Comes our Father.
Children Of Danish Roots, L.C. Laursen
Children Of Danish Roots, L.C. Laursen
The Bridge
Children of Danish Roots is a translation by Willard R. Garred of Stammens B0rn, an article that appeared originally in the 1931 issue of the "Ryslinge Julebog," a Christmas magazine of the Ryslinge Folk High School, Ryslinge, Denmark. The article was written by L. C. Laursen when he lived in the western Nebraska community at Mirage Flats near Hay Springs. After his arrival in the community he named it Ryslinge, a name generally accepted by the settlers and their friends.
Danebod Fall Meeting, Elsie S. Hansen
Danebod Fall Meeting, Elsie S. Hansen
The Bridge
In 1943 when Enok Mortensen and his family arrived in Tyler, Minnesota, to begin his pastorate at Danebod Lutheran Church, they were greeted by a severe blizzard which prevented them from moving into the parsonage for several days. The parsonage, located across from the church, had been redecorated, cleaned, insulated and made ready for their occupancy and soon they were comfortably ensconced. This was to be their home for almost 18 years.
Enok Mortensen And Askov, Hans Henningsen
Enok Mortensen And Askov, Hans Henningsen
The Bridge
The connection between Enok Mortensen and Askov Folk High School in Denmark came about accidentally, as it were, in the middle of the 1950s. The background was that rector Knud Hansen made some critical remarks, in an interview, about the United States and American foreign policy. This caused a great to-do in the press, so much so that the American ambassador decided to visit Askov Folk High School to judge for himself whether it were possible that Askov had "gone communist." Shortly thereafter Knud Hansen received an official invitation to spend three months in the United States. The visit, which …
Enok Mortensen As A Danish-American, Erling Duus
Enok Mortensen As A Danish-American, Erling Duus
The Bridge
Many years ago, Enok Mortensen wrote about the impact of the first singing of Kristian 0stergaard' s "Bag B0lgende Have" 1at a meeting at Nysted Folk School. For the first time, Danish-Americans had a song which moved beyond nostalgia to affirmation. It filled a need which had become powerful. It gave expression to the fact that the kind of rich cultural and spiritually generative Danishness which came to flower in the Grundtvigian movement had become implanted in the spaciousness of the plains and the prairies, and was transformed in this liberating new environment. This article 2 was characteristic of the …

John C. Freemont's Expeditions Into Utah: An Historical Analysis Of The Explorer's Contributions And Significance To The Region, Alexander L. Baugh
Theses and Dissertations
John Charles Fremont conducted five expeditions to the West during a period of twelve years (1842-1854). On four occasions, during three of these expeditions (1843-1844, 1845, and 1854), the explorer entered the Utah region. His explorations in northern Utah in 1843 focused primarily on the scientific analysis and survey of the Great Salt Lake. In 1844, Fremont again entered the Utah area and made scientific observations and calculations about the region, including accurately defining the geographic region known as the Great Basin, the name given it by Fremont. In 1845, Fremont proceeded through Utah while enroute to California and spent …
Eastward To Eden: The Nauvoo Rescue Missions, Richard E. Bennett
Eastward To Eden: The Nauvoo Rescue Missions, Richard E. Bennett
Faculty Publications
I have felt sensibly there was a good deal of suffering among the saints in Nauvoo, as there has been amongst us, but the Lord God who has fed us all the day long, has his care still over us and when the saints are chastened enough, it will cease. I have ever believed the Lord would suffer a general massacre of this people by a mob. If ten thousand men were to come against us, and no other way was open for our deliverance, the earth would swallow them up (Journal History, 27 Sept. 1846). These were the words …

The American Indian Museum Of The City Of Zurich, Or: From The Everyday Life Of Two Museum Curators, Hans Lang
The American Indian Museum Of The City Of Zurich, Or: From The Everyday Life Of Two Museum Curators, Hans Lang
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
Since his retirement from the Ethnological Museum of the University of Zurich in 1984, Hans Lang has devoted all his time to the American Indian Museum of the City of Zurich, the only such institution in Western Europe. It grew out of the initiative and the tireless collecting efforts of Gottfried and Martha Hotz. Already in his early youth, reading had awakened in G. Hotz a lively interest in the indigenous peoples of North America. When he was only sixteen, he purchased the first item, a simple knife, for his today widely known collection. Later he invested every penny he …

On The Trail Of Swiss Painters Among American Indians, Hans Lang
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
The discovery of America by Europeans opened a new field of interest for numerous European artists occupying themselves with the new continent and its native population. Some even set out with pencil and paint brush to portray on the spot that queer and picturesque world, not the least outstanding of them being Swiss.

Der Lndianer In Der Europaischen Musik - Ausgewahlte Beispiele, Hans Lang
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
The great event of the discovery of the New World with its strange, exotic peoples was reflected not only in European literature and art, but also in all areas of music. Especially in the field of music, there are still a number of unexplained phenomena in this context, such as the chaconne, which appeared in Spain soon after the discovery of America. In 1517, the Spanish poet Torres Naharro first mentioned the "chacona" as a peasant dance song. We still don't know how this dance developed or where it came from, but even then, its possible American (Mexican) origins were …
