In the spring of 1915, Guy Peters, then a young man, with his elderly parents, Abram Sovine (vine) Peters and mother Jerusha, along with a younger sister Pearl, moved to a 640 acre farm four miles northeast of Glenfield North Dakota. It was then known as the "Larson Place."
Guy, with his parents, had given up the homestead at Max, North Dakota and had shipped an emigrant car from Max to Glenfield. In it he brought all the horses, cattle, machinery and furniture. Pearl Peters who still makes her home in Glenfield still uses that same furniture, which includes an old organ, which was purchased in Minot, North Dakota in 1907.
In the winter of 1916, Guy Peters married R. Ruth Horine. Their first child was born in 1917. Irene, now Mrs. Bert Enger, lives at Gig Harbor, Washington.
In the spring of 1919 Guy and Ruth with their one child left the "Larson" place and moved to another farm near Courtney. Their second child was born there, Helen, now Mrs. Fred Miller, lives at Deer Lake, Washington. That year of 1919, the grasshoppers destroyed the crop, so Guy sold out his livestock and machinery and the family now with two children moved to Washington state. Guy worked in the woods for four years then in 1924 returned to North Dakota. Their third child was born in Washington, Walter, now living in Salem, Oregon. Guy and Ruth farmed again at Juanita and McHenry, North Dakota. Their fourth child, Elaine, was born at McHenry. Elaine, now Mrs. Wally Smith, lives at Port Orchard, Washington.
In 1933, after suffering depression and drought, Guy again left North Dakota and returned to Washington State. They retired from the farm at Rosalia, Washington in 1960 and have since made their home in Spokane, Washington.
