Centenary Of Martensdale Settlement In California

Joanne Frantz and Belva Warkentin recount the 1909 Martensdale trek of 65 cars from Fairview Oklahoma to Lerdo near Shafter California. The Bergen family and 53 others sought land promised by Henry J Martens, faced hardship, relocation to Rosedale and ReedleyDinuba, and enduring malaria and shortages before finding a new home. The tale anchors in Regina Bergensecker’s memoir and the 100th anniversary of Rosedale Bible Church.
