Most of the Frederick M. Hertel children were "born on a dirt floor", which means the house had a dirt floor when they were born. In those days, children were born at home, and a midwife helped with the birthing of the children. There were no doctors in this area at the time. This photo was taken about 1934.

Fred M.'s father won a land lottery in Corson County, which is why they moved there in 1917. Grandpa John built this house as a temporary home until he could build a nicer one to accommodate his large family. He left this one standing, which was convenient for Fred M. when he got married.

I found the inaccurate military record used on Alfred's profile on Ancestry.com, and notified them of it's inaccuracy. I will post Alfred's biography under "Stories about this person". Alfred was a wonderful man with many talents.

Alfred J. Hertel, b. 1926, Corson Co., S.D., d. 2015, Meade Co., S.D.; is my uncle, but his occupations never included the manufacture of electrical equipment. Whoever posted that as his occupation, either has the wrong Alfred J. Hertel, or didn't know him well enough to add such information about him, and there was only one Alfred J. Hertel born in Corson Co., S.D. ever. If the contributor of this profile makes the appropriate corrections, and they decide they have the correct person, but the wrong occupation, I will contribute more information on him. Otherwise, the contributor needs to remove the birth and residence information on him.
