Land

Robert purchased a [school section] north of his father Gustaf Lindstrom's original homestead (based on this description of [school sections], likely the section directly northwest: Township 7, Range 9, Section 36). After a drought starting in 1894, Robert began having trouble paying his mortgage payments. Following Gustaf Lindstrom's death in 1896, Robert, wife Alma, and son Elmer moved back to Gustaf's homestead and built a second sod house (soddie). Because of the drought, the sod was poor quality and the soddie deteriorated rapidly, and Robert built a frame house.
