Nelson Dudley Hale

This desk was made by Nelson Dudley Hale in the 1890's. It is now in the Reedstown Wisconsin Museum.
(Nelson's picture is on the wall next to the desk, The woman in the picture is a museum curator.)
Nelson also owned a brick making business. I have a brick that Maurice and Clarice saved. There is a label on the brick which says "Made by Nelson Dudley Hale & Sons in 1902". It was once used to build a church in Viroqua, Wisconsin. When the Church was later demolished Maurice got the brick.
