History

Carl Bernard Johnsen was born on April 5, 1900 in St. Paul, Minnesota to Charles Bernhard and Petra Oline Olsen Melby Johansen, both from Norway. The family surname was anglicized after they settled in North America. Carl Johnsen's family consisted of a half-sister, Lillian, two brothers, Hugo and Warren, and two sisters, Clara and Harriet. The Johnsen family moved to Saskatchewan in 1916 and settled on a homestead on the north shore of Echo Lake near Archerwill. In January, 1919, Carl Johnsen filed for a homestead in the Archerwill district and in 1920, he established a beekeeping business. He expanded and operated the business until his retirement in 1967, when he turned over his land and business to his two sons, who continued to operate it until 2005.

Johnsen married Anna Ivadell (Ivy) Walter, daughter of William George Walter and Sarah Elizabeth (Gawley) Walter, on November 19, 1934 in Wadena. Anna Walter had moved to Saskatchewan from Walter's Falls, Ontario with her parents and three brothers (Harvey Royal, John Ernest, and Robert Franklin) in 1917. The Walter family first settled in the Hanley district before moving to the Archerwill district in 1934. Carl and Anna (Ivy) Johnsen had five children: Roy (1938); Charles (1940); Fay (1941); Robert (1944); and Donna (1947).
