Long ago, before the Hinckley Fires, Grampa Hansen's granddaddy (whose name was Lars Gunnarson) came over to Partridge. Back then there was Banning Junction here and Partridge, too. My great-great grandfather Lars Gunnarson bought 160 acres to start a farm, and that land has been in our family down to this very day. Lars Gunnarson came to Partridge on a beautiful palomino mule, after he bought the 160 acres from a bank. He left his small family in Hinckley and traveled on Sally his mule to the woods that would become his wilderness farm. -Jordan Hansen (age 10) Askov, Minnesota Teachers'...
