Notes

Among the many fine women who have made this great family possible, stands my grandmother, Anna Louise Larson Norberg Glade Nuttall. Strange circumstances made it possible for her to meet grandfather Glade, but as she always said, “How could I have married anyone else, I had to mother the Glade boys.”

She was born in Rausberg, Forsamling, Skaraborgs Lan, Sweden, on October 11, 1866.

Her father and mother accepted the missionaries from the new world bringing the everlasting gospel, and they were prompted to sell their lands and come to Zion. Her father stayed behind to complete the land transaction, while her mother made the voyage to America with the four children; grandmother was the youngest, only three years old.

This family reached Omaha, Nebraska in 1870, one year after the railroad had been completed. Grandmother’s mother did not understand the language very well, and when the railroad conductor told her that children’s fares were not acceptable, she nevertheless got on the train with grandmother in her arms and before she knew what had happened she and her youngest were on their way to Utah. The others were left behind.

The family settled in Grantsville, Utah. Here her father later came and they (he and his son) found work for a time herding sheep.

A story rather precious to grandmother to this day involves a little lamb. At the time her mother was not well and in bed. To get rest she sent Anna Louise outside to her older brother. He didn’t want to be bothered with her so he made a promise that he would give her a little black lamb if she would be a good girl and go back into the house. Grandmother did not receive the little lamb until last year when her brother’s son brought her a little lamb with this note attached:

It took so long for you to show
What a good girl you could be
That my once black hair is as white as snow
But so is yours I see.

Her mother died shortly after this event.

Anna Louise was baptized in a river a short way from Grantsville, June 12, 1875. After her baptism she remembers sitting on the front row in the Church house awaiting confirmation, and she had a pink hat on. She has worried ever since what happened to the hat when she got up to be confirmed.

At the age of fourteen we find her in Ogden with her father. With two of her dearest chums, Aunt Lizzie and Zelma, she found work at Five Points, just outside of Ogden, in the Depot Hotel. In that day Ogden was a bustling growing railroad town full of opportunity.

Great-grandfather James Glade was the baker in that hotel. It was at about this time that Great-grandfather Glade had an accident that injured his leg quite seriously and when he returned to work he brought his oldest son James Richard with him. Here they met, loved and married in 1885. They were married by Judge Emerson in the Woolner’s home where Grandmother lived. She must have been a trim figure in her white Swiss dress with basque and drape overskirt.

They were later married in the Salt Lake Temple, and there they had their first son sealed to them.

They set up housekeeping in Ogden and built a small bakery in the front of their home. “Cottage Bakery” was the name, and Grandmother remembers her husband and his brother, Uncle Will, printing the big sign to hang over the front.

Earl, Vernon and Will were born to them while they lived in Ogden. Depression hit not many years after their establishing in business and they decided to move to Salt Lake City. From there Grandfather worked during the first summer at the Garfield Lake Resort. They made their home at Uncle Will’s in Salt Lake City while he was on a Mission, and they paid the fabulous rent of $10.00 per month. In the winter time Grandfather went to Park City to work in the Snow Bakery, his family remaining behind for the time.

Their only daughter, Grace, was born during this time and only lived for two and one half years. Grandmother and the family moved to Park City in 1897. Grandmother was not well following the loss of her daughter and while visiting Salt Lake City at the time of the 50th Centennial with Uncle Will, she visited a doctor friend and asked her if she would ever get well. She replied, “Certainly you will but it might take time.” From that moment on even while leaving that building, she felt better. In 1898 George, her fourth son was born, and she said she was glad he was a boy for she would know how to take care of him. Following him Eugene, Kenneth Preston, and Serge all came into the family in Park City.

In 1909 they decided to leave the bakery business and bought a farm in Provo, Utah. Grandfather died a year later.

They had a joyful heaven blessed life together for 25 years. They were hard working and following the death of their father, three sons filled missions for the Church. The Church was always beloved by Grandmother and she has worked diligently in it most of her life. Especially did she work hard in the MIA and was loved so by her Gleaners that they still meet together in her honor once a year.

In 1930 Grandmother married Leonard John Nuttall. They lived happily together for 18 years.

In her 87 years, Grandmother has faced hardships which she has overcome beautifully. Her strong faith has helped her over the hard spots and her love has done the rest. Her life is her tribute.

(She passed away in 1964.)
