Note: Andrew 0lson Mann Family

Andrew Olson came from Yafle, Sweden with his parents, Olaf and Karin
(Johnson) Olson around 1866 and settled somewhere in Louisiana. About a year
later, Mrs. Olson died and shortly after that Mr. Olson became very ill.
Unable to care for his two motherless children, he placed them in an
orphanage. Unknown to Mr. Olson, his two sons were given out for adoption.
When Andrew Olson, the father, recovered from his illness and went to
reclaim his son, he found both were gone. It took many years of searching
before he found them.
Andrew had been adopted by a family named James Mann and he was then known
as Andrew Olson Mann. (It was understood that the Manns were parents of Mrs.
Mary Jackson, a Grant resident for many years.) Andrew Olson Mann met
Cynthia Jane Miller, daughter of Judson Miller of this area, and married her
in 1887. To this union three sons were born: Walter who was born and died
January 20, 1891; Percy, born July 8, 1895; and Terry, born February 15,
1903. The parents at this time lived in Evanston, Illinois.
The family then moved to Eugene, Oregon. In 1908 the Manns moved back to
Grant where Andrew entered the hardware business as Freyer, Mann and
Company. The company was doing a thriving business as the Farmers Hardware.
When Mr. Mann's life ended in November of 1909, leaving Freyer and Alger to
handle the hardware and Mrs. Mann with two young sons to raise alone.
Both boys attended the Grant school with Percy being the first boy to
graduate from the extended twelve-year curriculum in Grant High School, and
the only graduate in the class of 1913. In a separate story, Percy related
the history of the Grant schools and reported that the classes of 1911 and
1912 each had one graduate, both girls. His younger brother, Terry,
graduated with the class of 1921.
During the years Percy earned a livelihood in Grant he utilized the office
training learned at Ferris Institute in Big Rapids working for businesses in
his home town. He also owned and operated the first bicycle shop in Grant
operating in one of the small frame store buildings that had been occupied
by the Jorgen-sen enterprises where the Grant Community Building now stands.
Some of the younger boys in town remember having bought their first bikes
from him. He later worked as bookkeeper in the Leon Heiss garage and auto
livery, going to Muskegon after the death of his mother April 10, 1930.
There he worked; at several occupations before going to Campbell, Wyant and
Cannon Company where he remained for almost twenty- four years.
Percy was married to Blanche Rood of Casnovia and Grant on March 6, 1937.
They had two sons; Floyd Marvin, born November 7, 1940 and David
( Kyrne (pronounced Kern), born June 6, 1942. Both sons are married. David
lives in the Muskegon area and Floyd lives in California. Floyd Marvin had a
daughter Renee and a son James by his first wife, Carolyn; and a son Darin
Andrew and two stepdaughters Brandi and Danielle by his second wife,
Constance. David Kyrne Mann and his wife, Joyce (Williams) have a daughter
Paula and a son Keith.
Percy's brother Terry married Mona Eick of Battle Creek where Terry worked
for the Kellogg Company for his entire career. They were married June 22,
1942. They had one son, Gary Gene, born September 13, 1945, who still lives
in Battle Creek. Terry;s wife died very unexpectedly of a heart attack on
March 2, 1956. Terry died March 22, 1966 and his older brother, Percy, died
January 6, 1969.
Blanche Rood Mann moved into an apartment on Apple Avenue and continues to
live in Muskegon. While living in Grant, Blanche had become aquainted with
residents here through her work in Celia Kosten's Cafe and became like a
third daughter to the Martin Kostens.
