Archibald Anderson

Archibald Anderson was the father of Christian Ram Anderson, making him Dynamo's great Grandfather. He was known as a hardworking man, born in Wisconsin to a destitute family of Charcoal Burners, long after the profession had begun to die out. His father, Graceland Anderson, had been a decorated veteran of the Civil War. Seeing the path of a charcoal burner as one of failure, he instead set out for new lands to settle and start a family in. This eventually culminated in his arrival in Iowa, where he worked for several years as a farm hand before saving enough to buy his own plot around 1888. Soon after he met and married Gracie Corduroy, and the two would end up having eleven children. Several of their children died young, but eventually their son Christian grew strong enough to take over most of the daily operations of the farm as his father sank into ill health and old age, likely side effects of his childhood charcoal burning. He would die in 1928, mourned as a good father, husband and man.
