1993 letter in pocession of Gordon Grender has the following: The family imigrated to America by sailing ship in April 8, 1859 on the vessel "Brobar", the crossing took seven weeks. He came with his parents, Ole and Margrete, and siblings, Martin, Karoline, Karen, Laura, Maria, Petra, and Olava. In the war between the states Hans volunteered for service in the Union Army. He became a corporal and served at the siege of Vicksburg. While on furlough in Wisconsin he married Mathea Jakobsdatter on April 13, 1864. Then he took part in the dreadful siege of Atlanta and marched with Sherman "to the sea". He served as a Corporal in Co. C 12th Regt., Wis Vet Vol, 2nd Brigade, 3rd Division, 17th AC Army of the Tennessee. A letter from Abner Grender claims that he reached the rank of Sargent. After the war he returned to Wisconsin and began to farm in Dane County, Town of Perry. He changed his name to Grinder because there were too many Olsens. "Grinder" was the name of the farm in Norway where he was born. The name means "gates" and in Norway is pronounced as if it were spelled Grenner, both "r's" being rolled on the tongue.
