• Notes

  Niels Brenholdt settled in Cushing in 1870 and after finding he hadfar more land than he could clear, Niels wrote to his brother Christenand offered him the east 80 acres if Christen would come to America.Christen came in 1871 along with their mother, Maren, his sister,Maren, his brother, Hans, and his wife Ane Marie. This 80 acres isstill in the Brenholt family today. Carol Brenholt Medchill, greatgrand daughter of Christen lives there presently. The family agreed to take the name of their place in Denmark as afamily name when they came to America. How or why the brothers eachspelled it a little differently I guess we will never know. Above is from a history of Cushing read at the dedication of Brenholdt Park in 1976.
