    Bertha Eddy was born at Bailey's Corner, Big Lake Twp., Sherburne Co., Minnesota on April 25, 1889. In 1896 the Eddy family moved to Sauk Rapids, Minnesota where Myron Eddy had accepted the job as a rural mail carrier in Benton County. In 1902 the family moved to Ronneby, Minnesota where they engaged in the hotel business. In 1905 the family moved to a farm north of Ronneby and engaged in farming for the next three years.
    In October 12, 1907, Bertha married Albert Milton in St. Cloud, Minnesota. In 1909 Bertha, Albert and son Bruce traveled by train to the state of Washington where Albert worked in the woods. In 1910, the family returned to Ronneby where Albert worked as a farm laborer and Bertha was a housewife raising her two small boys. In the 1914 land survey plat map of Benton Co., it indicates that Albert Milton owned a 36 acre farm in section two of Maywood Township. In the 1920 Census, the Bert Milton Family was living in Ronneby and Bert's occupation was listed as a farm laborer.
    In 1921 the family moved to the Mille Lacs Lake area where they resided on a small farm in South Harbor Township. In 1925, Bert died and Bertha was left with her three children, Bruce 16 years old, Myron 14 years old and little sister Garnet 6 years old. At this time Bertha bought and moved to a farm in Bradbury Township near Onamia, Minnesota where the boys did the farming and worked in the woods.
    In 1932, not being able to keep up with the payments on the farm, Bertha sold the farm and she and Garnet moved to Foley, Minnesota to live at her parents home place. In the early 1940's, she moved to Sheldon, Washington where she lived with Garnet and Harry Floreck until she died on April 19, 1952. (Bruce S. Milton Research)

    Bertha married Milton, Albert Edward on 12 Oct 1907 in St. Cloud, Stearns Co., Minnesota. Albert was born on 16 Dec 1880 in Maywood Twp., Benton Co., Minnesota; was christened in in Mound Cemetary, Maywood Twp., Minnesota; died on 17 Apr 1925 in Foley, Benton Co., Minnesota.

    Bruce Edward Milton was born on June 11, 1908 to Albert Edward and Bertha Marie Eddy Milton in Ronneby, Minnesota. Bruce was the eldest of three children and when he was a year old, the family moved to the state of Washington where Albert worked in the woods as a logger. Just prior to the birth of their son Myron, the family moved back to the Ronneby area where Albert again engaged in farming. In 1914, the family owned a small 36 acre farm in Section 2 of Maywood Township in Benton County. Albert worked this small farm and also worked out for other farmers in the area as a laborer.
    In 1921 the family moved to Mille Lacs County and rented a small home in Section 18 of South Harbor Township. Albert continued to farm and also worked out on the William Benzie farm which was also located in South Harbor Township. During the winter of 1924\25, Albert became very ill with a lung respiratory problem and traveled to Foley, Minnesota to doctor and stay with his mother, Jennie Milton and his in-laws, Myron and Clara Eddy. His condition worsened and on April 17, 1925 he died, leaving his young family "up in the woods" to fend for themselves. Bruce, being the oldest child, then had the responsibility to support the family. He went to work for Houlton Benzie, doing farm chores on his farm which was located in South Harbor Township. In 1926, Bertha Milton and her family moved to a small farm located in Section 4 of Bradbury Township in Mille Lacs County and the family lived there until 1932. Shortly after Albert died, Bruce's uncle Joseph Wruck sent him to barber school in Minneapolis, Minnesota and give him a barbering job in his general store in Ronneby when he completed his schooling. Bruce didn't care for the barbering business and went back to farming with his immediate family.
    While living on the Bradbury Township farm, Bruce met Bertha Strang, his future wife and the daughter of William Strang who lived in Section 11 of the same township. Bruce and Bertha were married on May 18, l931 at the Holy Cross Catholic Church in Onamia, Minnesota. The couple lived in South Harbor Township where they farmed on the Houlton Benzie farm and Bruce also worked as a Special Deputy Sheriff for dances at Shore Acres and other local dance halls. In 1933 they moved to Onamia where they have since resided. Bruce was Chief of Police of the Village of Onamia and a Special Deputy Sheriff of Mille Lacs County from 1935 to 1942.
    In 1942, Bruce traveled to Canada and Alaska and did carpentry construction work on the Alcan Highway project. In March 1943 to December 1945 he served in the Army Air Corps as a gunnery instructor at Lowry Airforce Base, Denver, Colorado and later was assigned as a military policeman at Tyndol Air Force Base in Florida.
    Upon returning from the service, he was again employed by the Village of Onamia until he was elected Sheriff of Mille Lacs County in January 1946. He served as Sheriff of Mille Lacs County until December 1962. During the next ten years he did contract carpentry work in the Minneapolis and Onamia area retiring in 1972. During the next 12 years he assisted his wife Bertha at the Milton Rest Home in Onamia. Bruce and Bertha lived in Onamia most of their lives and raised a fine family of four children.
    Mr. Milton died on October 27, 1984 at the Onamia Community Mercy Hospital at the age of 76. He was a well respected gentleman in the community and certainly is missed by those whom he had come in contact with during his many years of community service. (Bruce S. Milton Research)

    Bruce married Strang, Bertha Marie on 18 May 1931 in Onamia, Mille Lacs Co., Minnesota. Bertha was born on 11 Jun 1911 in Mansfield Twp., Barnes Co., North Dakota. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
