Pia Nordin: I just found information about a Fred Nordin. He had a farm in Barton, North Dakota, USA.His parents were in Minnesota,USA. They died about 1913.After some poor crops Fred moved to Saskatchewan, Canada  in 1912. His homestead was south of Lintlaw. He built a shack and covered the outside with tar paper.  
One day returning from a tour around the countryside with his gun, he found a big black bear. The bear had got a roll of tar paper from the top of the shack and was eating it up.. Fred shot the bear and he and his neighbors had their first taste of bear meat.
Fred was also a photographer. He also set up the first sawmill south of town. In 1919 he sold his farm and sawmill and moved to Medstead Sask. where he spent the rest of his life.
