Jerpe in a small wholesale company. Jerpe Commission Company purchased eggs and cream from local farmers which they processed and sold. In 1905, Swanson bought the company from Jerpe under a partnership with John Hjerpe and Frank Ellison. They operated a commission business hauling eggs, milk and poultry they bought from local farmers and selling them to the grocery stores and hotels in Omaha, Nebraska. Upon his partners' death, Swanson became sole owner of the company and renamed it Carl A. Swanson and Sons, a still in operation national food production company, Swanson Foods. The home originally belonged to Wilh. Judernatz, and the Swanson family then purchased the home and lived here from 1920-1950, Upon the death of Carl Swanson, the home was sold multiple times, eventually being converted to five apartments and all original details stripped out. In January of 2017, the home was purchased by Urban Restorative, an interior architectural design firm that specializes in historic home restorations, and has been lovingly restored it to its original single family glory and is now waiting for a new family to call it home!
