Memorial to the Honorable Omen Nervig of Humboldt County

MR. SPEAKER: Your committee, appointed to prepare a suitable resolution commemorating the life, character and public service of the late Honorable Omen Nervig, begs leave to submit the following report:

Omen Nervig was born in Moscow, Wisconsin, Iowa county, November 22, 1863, and lived there until he was fourteen years of age when he moved to Faulk county, South Dakota, and resided there until 1893. He then moved to Humboldt county, Iowa, on a farm in Lake township.

Mr. Nervig was married in 1906 to Sophia Smith of Eagle Grove, Iowa, and they were the parents of four children, Irma Eulahe, Ethel Nyline, Mildred Ileace, and Orville James.

Mr. Nervig served as state Representative from Humboldt county in the Thirty-ninth General Assembly. He was a conscientious and capable member of the body and was beloved by all his associates.

Therefore, Be It Resolved by the House of Representatives of the Fifty-third General Assembly of Iowa: That in the passing of this honored citizen the House wishes to tender, by this resolution, its sincere sympathy to the surviving members of his family in their sorrow.

Be It Further Resolved: That a copy of this resolution be spread upon the Journal of the House, and that the Chief Clerk be instructed to send an enrolled copy to the family of the deceased.
