ALBERT G. JANSEN
Albert, son of Louis and Katherine (Frahm) Jansen, was born September 26, 1894, near Manning, Iowa. The family moved to the Manilla area where Albert attended country schools; later he also attended school in Manning.

On July 5, 1916, Albert was united in marriage with Lena Gruhn at Zion Lutheran Church in Manning by Reverend John Ansorge. Thirteen children were born to this union. Albert and Lena made their home in Manning until 1918 when they moved to Dallas, South Dakota where Albert was engaged in farming. In the early 1950s the family moved to Springfield, South Dakota where Albert was employed at Southern State Teacher's College. Albert and Lena moved back to Manning in the early 1970s.

In the late 1980s Albert and his wife moved to the Manning Plaza Nursing Home. They celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary there in July of 1991. Lena died later that year and Albert continued to make his home at the Plaza. He died there early Tuesday morning, February 23, 1993, at the age of 98 years, 4 months, and 28 days.
