William Waggoner came to Naponee in 1874 and stayed with relatives a while. Frank was born in a sod house east of Naponee 1877. The family ca me to Harlan, built a sod house north of where Henry Renz lived. William took a timber claim permit, but didn't put out any trees, so a Mr. Specer took it. They lived in this area until Frank was 13 years old. When he was 20, he, two Parsons boys and my uncle Vern Cassell went to South Dakota to work. He married Maggie Rolland in 1904, worked in Prairie View, Kansas a time. Came back and built the house where Rolland lives, lived there until 1928, moved to Republican City in 1928, and to Alma in 1951 when the town had to be relocated. Frank has been a director in the Farmers Mutual Insurance Company for 57 years. Maggie Rolland-Waggoner was born in a 2 room dugout, 10 miles south of Republican City 1881.

In 1886 they moved to Republican City. Grandma Rolland was a good nurse, used home remedies. Once she had helped with some Diphtheria patients, changed her clothes in the barn and burned them to protect her own family. She went day or night, whenever called. In 1896, Maggie joined the Daisy Stoddard band. They went to Holdrege in a wagon to play at a political rally when James McKegen was running for Congress. That evening they went on to Loomis in a buggy to play; home that night as there was no money to pay for lodging. In 1897, four of the girls went to Stamford in a wagon to sing at the Christian Church. They thought they had a real treat, because they stayed all night with a Mrs. Lewis.
