Hi Listers.. An index to the biographies in the History of Barron County, 1922, and others previously submitted are available at the following: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/wi/barron/bios.htm Ole Moseng, for over forty-three years a resident of Section 32, Arland Township, was born in Norway, attended school there, grew to manhood, and married Bertha Troan. They came to America in 1871, landed at Quebec, and found their way to Perry, Wis. where they remained for over a year. From there they came to Menomonie where he entered the employ of Knapp, Stout & Co., working in the lumber camps and on the river drives. In 1875, he came to Barron County, and took a homestead of 80 acres in Section 32, Arland Township. This was all wild land. He blazed a trail to his place, through the woods, built a log cabin, and there established his family. For many seasons he continued to work in the woods to get a little money to keep things going while he could get things well started on the farm. Gradually he built up a good place, and he and his wife became respected and substantial people. In 1896 he turned the place over to his son, Charles E., but continued to live there until his death. He died Dec. 15, 1918, and his wife June 12, 1916. --Taken from: History of Barron Co., Wisconsin, H. C. Cooper, Jr., & Co., 1922, pg. 899.
