• Photos » Slide Show		Cora and the Nundahl kids Probably from about 1914. If so, Cora is 18, Carl is 17, Clara is 16, and Tillman is 12. This is about the time that Cora went to Minneapolis for three months.
  		Ole Torger school, about 1910 Cora, about 14, is fourth from the left in the back and Clara, about 12, is third from the left. That's Carl Nundahl, about 13, third from the right in the back. Tillman, who would have been 8 or 9, may be the boy in the middle of the picture or the boy next to Carl. The original is a postcard. No photographer indicated. The school Cora attended is referred to as “The Ole Torger School - District #8” in the Vernon County 150 Years book. A description of the history of the school, by Wesley Clayton Slack, is as follows: “The Ole Torger School started in a white wood frame one-room building with pillars on the front porch on land obtained from Ole Torger, hence the name. Many of the students spoke Norwegian so had to learn English."
