Birth: Mar. 25, 1828, Iceland
Death: Sep. 9, 1894 Spanish Fork Utah County Utah, USA
Thordur Dedrickson was one of the first Icelandic settlers in Spanish Fork in 1856. Because of drops out at Florence, Nebraska, Thordur was able to join the second handcart company in 1865, as part of Captain Daniel D McArthur’s company. In crossing the plains, Thordur in his journals reports that when the company had gotten 150 miles out on the plains some began to get stomachaches to some extent due to the fact that the small portion of meat, which was 3/4 pound, wasn’t enough for a hungry man for one meal, let alone for a whole day. Starting out with four people assigned to his handcart, by the time that he had arrived in Salt Lake Valley he was pulling the handcart by himself, Because of the lack of proper nutrition Thordur had lost over a hundred pounds in weight during the ninety-day trek. Thordur homesteaded 160 acres on land on the east bench. Here he built an adobe yard, which furnished materials for many of the homes that were built in the early days of Spanish Fork. The adobe was made of mud and straw, and it is said of Thordur that he ate his breakfast by candlelight. Long before dawn, he would be at his yard, ready to work. Returning late, he would eat his evening meal by candle’s flame. On January 2, 1858, he married Helga Jonsdottir, who had arrived in 1855 with Samuel and Margaret Bjarnasson. Mr. Dedrickson married Maren Jacobsen on July 17, 1866, at Danish lady who became the mother of Theodore Dedrickson and Grace Dedrickson Taylor. In November 1880, he married an Icelandic lady Ranngeig Jonsson. Thordur was a leader of the Icelandic colony and presided at the majority of their meetings. He was called to perform a mission to his homeland in 1875 and labored there until 1877. A goldsmith and a poet in Iceland, much of writings are still being used in the Icelandic schools today. Upon his return to Utah, his missionary writings on Faith, “Pordi Didrikssyni,” were published in 1879 as a tract and were used in missionary lessons as late as the 1970's. Many of the Icelandic people who came in later years found food and shelter beneath his roof. With he help, they secured homes of their own. Those who knew him best gave evidence that he was a truly a great man, willing to sacrifice that others might find happiness in their new home. Thordur’s death occurred on September 9, 1894.

2INTERNET, 2009. "Gilbert DEDRICKSON [Parents] was born 18 Jun 1899 in Spanish Fork, Utah, Ut. He died 16 Mar 1991 in Payson, Utah, Ut and was buried 19 Mar 1991 in Spanish Fork, Utah, Ut. Gilbert married Alberta LARSEN on 21 Sep 1921 in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Ut.
As a boy, Gill thinned and topped beets for various farmers. Occasionally he raised a calf or some pigs which his father sold through his contacts in the World Drug Store. His father was part owner of the drug store. Later, he sold his share in the store and bought a farm where his three sons worked. As the oldest son, Gilbert assumed a major responsibility for operating the farm. They raised hay, grain, sugar, beets, tomatoes, potatoes, cherries, and peaches. Between crops, they bailed hay. Gill also ran an orchard for Dr. J. W. Hagan.
The depression of the 1930s took its toll on the farmers. One time, Gill sent two railroad cars of hay to Texas and received about forty cents on the dollar. Another time he sent a railroad car of peaches to the eastern markets and received nothing. He said, "Of course, I had to pay my help so I went in the hole during those years." When years were good, the farm checks for beets or grain might be $10,000. However, the depression and the drought of the 1930s combined, drive many farmers off their lands, and the Dedrickson farmers were among them.
He later worked for Spanish Fork City, on road maintenance and the electrical department, and later worked for the Salt Lake Army base as a fireman from 1941 to 1946. He later went to work for the Utah State Road Commission as a heavy equipment operator for 20 years. He served as a Spanish For Volunteer Fireman, and received his 60 year pin.

Alberta was educated in the public schools of Mapleton. She was an excellent student. When she was fourteen, she had a ruptured appendix and was told by the doctor that her strong body and good health prior to the appendicitis made the difference in her living.
Alberta was a spiritual person and attended to her religious obligations. She taught Sunday School during her ten years. At age 16, was engaged to be married to Reed Halverson. However, be developed Scarlet Fever and died a month before their wedding day. In addition to working on the farm, Alberta picked cherries and topped beets. Several seasons, she was the person who weighed the wagons and beets at the railroad scale house at the Mapleton siding. The farmers never complained about the weights she computed, so they must have been accurate.
Mother was an ambitious woman and kept a clean orderly home, yard, and garden. She used fresh garden vegetables and fruit all. She bottled the raspberries and peaches she raised and also sufficient pears, plums, and tomatoes for winter use. She often made her own laundry soap. She was always busy with home or church activities. Some of the children in the neighborhood told me that mother was their favorite Primary teacher.
