Guilford Hanesworth, Jr, 89, of La Crosse, Wisconsin, passed away peacefully with his loving wife, June, and daughter, Sandra at his side.

Gil was born in La Crosse to Guilford G. and Leona Hanesworth in 1925. He graduated from La Crosse Central High School and joined the Marine Corps in 1943, serving 2 1/2 years during which time he was part of the amphibious invasion of Iwo Jima. He was awarded a Purple Heart for wounds he recieved during the Campaign. After his return home he attended St Mary's College in Winona, MN where he played football. He transferred to Bradley University in Peoria, Ill, graduating in 1950.

In 1948 he married Janet Lynn Smevog of La Crosse and they shared 48 yrs before her passing in 1996.

During his carreer he lived and worked in Oak Park, IL, Atlanta, GA, La Grange Park, IL, and West Palm Beach, Fl. Somehow he found time to organize Jaycees and start Little League Baseball leagues early in his career. While living in Atlanta, Sandra, their daughter came into their lives. In 1966 the family moved to La Grange Park, IL when Gil took a position with the National Sporting Goods Association as director of their retail trade shows. He was president of the local school board and later President of the Parks and Recreation Department for the Village of La Grange Park. Gil was instrumental in acquiring land for the Village now named in his honor, Hanesworth Park, that is home to the Recreation Building and Little League Baseball fields.

In 1980 Gil became Managing Director of the New York International Trade Show for the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association, located in West Palm Beach, FL. Gil retired from that postion in 1987.

Gil stayed busy during retirement as a volunteer for the Florida Sports foundation managing the National Awards Program for Parks and Recreation Departments. He was a member of the Florida Seniors Task Force promoting state wide Senior Games and was also involved at the national level.

In 1999 Gil returned to La Crosse where he was an active volunteer with the "Friends of the Upper Mississippi Fishing Services", and a member of the American Legion Post 52. He was a tennis buff, playing the game into his 80's. He loved participating in sports, being outside, and on the go living an active and full life. Gil was able to take advantage of many wonderful opportunities to include skiing in the Alps and hunting wild Boar in Texas, meeting so many wonderful friends along the way. Family and friends will greatly miss him.

Gil is survived by his wife, June (Luehmann) Hanesworth. They were married in 2003 and have enjoyed 11 wonderful years together. He is also survived by his daughter Sandra (Darryl) Scheffel of Grafton, IL., three grandchildren, Diana, Jonathan, and Kristianna Scheffel, two sisters-in-law, Audrey Vorbeck and Ruth (Robert) Frise, many nieces and nephews and June's two children, grandchilden and great- grandchildren.

Gulbrandsdalen is an area in Norway which encompasses many communities.

At the time of the 1900 census, they owned their farm, free of mortgage, in Viroqua, Vernon County. The household consisted of Ole M., 36 (Feb 1864), Mary, 35 (Aug 1864), Magda S., daughter, 9 (Oct 1890), Michael, 6 (Jun 1893), Carrie J., 5 (Aug 1894), Petra, daughter, 3 (Aug 1896), Conrad, 2 (Jul 1897), and Ragna, daughter, 1 (Apr 1899). Mary had had 7 children, 6 still living, and she and Ole had been married for 11 years. Although the Alnesses are shown as living on a farm, the families on either side of them on the census form are shown as living in houses, not farms.

Ole emigrated in 1881 according to the 1900 census. Confirmed in his obit which says that he emigrated at age 17.

In the 1905 state census, the household is in Franklin, Vernon County and was recorded as: Ole M Alness, 41, Marie, 40, Magna S, 14, Mikkel, 12, Carrie, 10, Petra, 8, Connard, 7, Alfred, 4, Halvor, 2, Ragna, 1, Ole Ostrem, 22, servant, and Susanna Bolstad, 60, widow, mother in law. Ole is renting his farm which is not too far from the Clouse Bowe farm.

In the 1910 census, the family is in Franklin Twp. The household consists of Ole M., 46, Mary A., 45, Michael, 16, Carrie S. or G., 15, Peter A., son, 13, Conrad, 12, Alfred, 9, Halvor C., 6, Ragna A., 5, Mary C., 4, Susanna Bolstad, mother in law, 65, and Ole Bolsted, hired man, 32. The children were all born in Wisconsin, everyone else was born in Norway. Mary has had 11 children, 9 still living, and Susanna had 3 children, only one still living. Ole and Mary had been married for 20 years. Ole owns his farm, free of mortgage. Ole M. came to this country in 1881 and was a naturaized citizen. Susanna came to this country in 1865 or 1868. Ole Bolsted came to this country in 1904 and was still an alien. Nothing is mentioned regarding Mary’s emigration.

In the 1915 Vernon County plat book, O. M. Alness’s farm is spread over three sections but is predominantly in Section 20, about 2 miles west and one mile north of the Bowe farm. In the 1896 plat book, Ole Alness owned a 40 in Section 29 and a landlocked “back 40” in Section 20. By the time of the 1915 plat book, we can see that Ole Alness had purchased several intervening parcels to connect his two 40s. He may have had perhaps many unsuccessful negotiations with Christine Fladhammer because he would have had a much easier time consolidating his parcels if he could have purchased even a few of her acres. The reason that the she would not have been amenable to such a transaction is that her house was in the way and a consolidating sale to Ole Alness would have left either her house disconnected from the rest of her land or else landlocked from the road. So, between 1896 and 1915, Ole Alness acquired property (a total of 170 acres) from C. P. Bolstad (Ole being married to Peder Bolstad’s daughter probably helped there), O. S. Henry, N. O. Bowman, and D. F. Tainter to consolidate those two original 40s.

His address in 1918, according to his son Conrad’s draft registration card, was Route 5, Viroqua. Conrad spelled his father’s name as Ole Allness.

In the 1920 census, the family is still in Franklin township. The household consists of Ole M., 56, Mary 55, Madgda, 29, Michael, 26, Carrie, 25, Petra, 23, Conrad, 21, Alfred, 19, Ragna, 17, Halvor, 15, Cornelia, 13, and Susana Bolstad, 76. Ole M. and Mary were both naturalized as citizens in 1911. Magda is a stenographer for a railroad office and Carrie is a public school teacher.

In the 1930 census, Ole’s farm is shown to be on Liberty Pole and (or?) Viroqua Road in Franklin township. The family consists of Ole, 66, Marie, 65, Petra, 33, Conrad, 31, Alfred, 28, and Halvor, 27. Petra is shown as a housekeeper in a private home.
