Victor Robert Anderson was born on Armistice Day, the end of
WWI. In tribute to this event and the birth of their son, they
named him Victor for Victory. His mother used totell her
grandson stories that Victor was an active and mischievious, yet
loving child. She said he loved to participate in sports and
was a good athlete as well as a good student. He worked many
hours in his father's restaurants while growing up, so developed
an outstanding work ethic.
His mother, GraceWall Anderson, relayed a story of the time(abt
1937) her son, Victor, left animportant football game they had
won and was headed to the big dance. He decided to take a short
cut through the park and after speeding through the park coming
to an intersection. As he enteredthe intersection he didn't
notice the red light and ran a couple off the road and into a
ditch. Not noticing what he had just done, he continued
speeding down the road. After a wonderful evening at the big
college dance, he drove home and got into bed. He was awakened
the next morning by his father, Ray, who had his arm
outstretched and his hand open. His father asked for the keys
and Victor asked why. His father informed him that he had run
his mother and father off the road earlier in the evening. To
say the least, he lost his driving privaleges for a while.
He attended Ventura College for 1 1/2 years and would be
recognized as a star runningback for Ventura College and was
recognized by the state of California for his achievements as a
back at Ventura as per his yearbook states.
His college studies would be out on hold, as he would move with
his parents to Napa just before the onset of WWII and would go
to work at Mare Island Naval Shipyard as aclerk to earn money
to continue his college education and wanted to continue to get
his teaching degree. The 7th of December would chance his
future plans forever.
When he went to enlist in Santa Rosa, on 17 Jan 1942, he was
immediately sent ot San Diego for training. His family expected
him home, but he called and let them know he wouldn't be home.
After his training, he would return home and he and his love,
Elizabeth Rasler, to Reno and marry her on 10 September 1942,
before leaving for tour duty in the Aleutian Islands. It would
be over 2 yeaers before Elizabeth would see him again. His
first assignment was on the U.S.S. Coghlin as Chief Yeoman and
sent to the Aleutians after the Japanese had taken over islands
there. Elizabeth, his wife, would relay a story to her son that
the U.S.S. Coghlin was the ship he most favored to serve aboard.
In the Aleutians, he was involved in the Batlle of Komandorski
Islands,which was the longest surface battle of U.S. Naval
history and is still the longest surface battle in American
Naval history.
The author of this family history has the report that Victor
wrote for the Admiral describing the events of the battle. He
was commended for his service during this battle, in which his
ship saved another ship by laying smoke to protect the Japanese
from zeroing its guns on his sister ship, the U.S.S. Bailey, the
ship he would serve on in his battles in the Gilbert
Islands(Tarawa), Marshall Islands, and the Phillipines. After
laying smoke, they concentrated their guns on the Japanesed
battleship to draw fire away from the Bailey. This gave the
Bailey time to repair engines and get under way and elude the
enemy. He would also be involdedin engagments in the Taron
Islands, Lngayen Gulf, Luzon Islands, again in thePhillipines,
and Layte. In one incident in the

Vintson Anderson of section 13, Huntsville township, came here
in 1835. Hewas born in Clermont Co., Ohio, in 1833. His
father, William Anderson, was born in Mason County, May 14, 1800
(note from David Anderson-incorrect birthplace). He was the son
of Andrew Anderson, who was born in Virginia (also incorrect,
born in PA) and was of Irish descent. The family has resided in
Americafor several generations. William Anderson was reared a
farmer, and married in Kentucky in 1824, a Miss Prudence
Wallingford, born in Kentucky, August 15, 1806. They migrated
to Ohio in 1832, and resided there at Cincinatti, and in
Clermont county, for three years and then came to Ilinois and
located in Schuyler county. In spring of 1836, Mr. Anderson
purchased a claim on section 13,in which is now Huntsville, and
here he passed the remaining years of his life. He entered land
and purchased more, until his real estate possessions amounted
to 600 acres. He was a cautious man and never went into debt.
He was a hard-working man, and in those days when the sickle
wasa used to cut grain, hewas an expert in the use of the same,
and still continued to use the hook after the cradle came into
use. He died August 6, 1887. His wife is still living and is
a member of the Christian Church. The two came with about $200
in capital, and in the time they lived in Illinois became rich
and influential people. They had ten children, seven of whom
grew up, namely, Jane Cady, Cyrus,Andrew, Vintson, Frank, Sarah
McHatten and John
Subject was two years old when the family settled in Schuyler
county, and he resided at home until he attained his majority.
His school advantages were limited. At the age of twenty-one he
went to Fort Snelling, Minnesota, and broke prairie and engaged
as cookto a gang of men who were cutting hay for the
Government. At that date Minneapolis consisted of a sawmill and
a few houses. He remained in Minnesota about six months and
then returned to Illinois and egaged in making brooms at
Clayton, Adams county, Illinois. He followed this business four
years and then removed to Brown county, but after a few years
residence there, removed to Schuyler county and settled where he
now resides on land entered by his father. He has a farm of
105 acres. He is democrat in politics, and has been Road
Commissioner for many years. He has filled that office with
great credit to himself.
He was married in 1858 to Jane McDonald of Brown county, born
October 15, 1840, daugther of John B. and Sarah C. (Orr)
McDonald. The former was bornin county, Antrim, Ireland, and
came to the United States when a young man, and resided in the
Southern States for a short time, but finally settled in Brown
county in 1833, and soon after married Sarah C. Orr, who was the
daugther of Mr. G. Orr, a settler in Brown county 1831. She was
born in Tennessee in 1810. Mr. and Mrs McDonald had four
children, all of whom are now married and well settled.
Mr. and Mrs. Anderson have had seven children: Carrie, wife of
William Nelson of Huntsville township; Cora, at home; William J.
died in infancy; Frank C., at home; Pearl, at home; Myrtle, died
at the age of four; and Nina E., at home.
