Nina A. Anderson, 86, died Monday night at the Heritage Home at Clarion following a long illness.

Services will be at 2 pm Wednesday at the United Presbyterian Church in Goldfield, with burial in Vernon Cemetery near Renwick. The Kastler-Babcock Funeral Home of Eagle Grove is in charge of the services.

Surviving are one son, Floyd Anderson of Eagle Grove; three grandchildren; six great-grandchildren; and one great-great-granddaughter.

Born in Decatur, Ill, the former Nina Queary attended schools in Decatur, moved to Renwick at the age of 11, and then attended schools there. In 1900 she married William Anderson at Goldfield. They farmed until 1929, when they moved to Renwick. Mr. Anderson died in 1951. In recent years, Mrs. Anderson lived at Goldfield, until moving to the Heritage Home about one year ago.

--------------------------------

Nina used to tell her son Floyd how she lived in Decatur, Ill when she was a young girl. Around 1893 she came with her parents across the prairie in a covered wagon that carried their belongings. They headed west into Iowa where they eventually settled between Goldfield and Renwick where her father farmed for a number of years. She passed along two trunks that they had used to carry their belongings in on the covered wagon. One was a steamer trunk and the other was a camel-back trunk, to her son Floyd. They were then passed on to Floyd's son Thomas who passed one each along to his children, Patricia and Thomas Jr.
