Notice biographique
Brede Albert Henrikson was born August 12, 1871 in Kilborn, Wisconsin. Henrikson lived on the Yukon River before he married Nora Annette Pedersen. Nora was born July 3, 1885 in Drammen, Norway. Brede and Nora married July 6, 1905 in Seattle, Washington. After a honeymoon in Portland, Oregon the couple settled at wood camp #8 on the Yukon River. The Henriksons provided wood for the sternwheelers that travelled the Yukon River. Their camp was located on the west side of the river, 39 km (24 miles) upriver from Little Salmon and 20 km (12 miles) downriver from Big Salmon. They initially lived on a houseboat called the "Merrimack" and then built a cabin nearby. Their first daughter Anna was born on the houseboat and the other four girls were born in the cabin: Anna Sophia Merrimack (Scott), 1906; Nettie (Johnson) 1908-1993; Aurora Borealis (Leiper), 1909; Sally (Wells), 1911-2001; Solveig (Christopherson), 1916. The Henriksons left the Yukon River when Brede became ill in 1916. He died April 2, 1917 in Fergus Falls, Minnesota. Nora died in Fergus Falls July 27, 1971.
