Biography

Note

Note: The following is an excerpt from the "Fragments of the Past", by Dortha Roxanna Madsen Rollins McKinney:

".....My grandmother on father's side was an expert seamstress and tailor. She made men's suits out of cloth she wove on her own loom which was as fine as any sold from stores. (NOTE: this would have been Dortha Roxana Madsen Rollins McKinney's paternal grandmother, who was Dorthea Christine Jensen Madsen, born 1817 in Denmark and died 1891 in Bloomington, Idaho.)

Another thing my grandmother did was make beer to serve to the farm hands in summer time. I have watched her take the sprouted grain, brown it in the oven, add water and yeast and put in the wooden kegs."
