Here is the road building equipment that Fred Beard ( Reynolds, ND ) owned to build many of the roads here in Traill County of North Dakota. My dad, Alvin Lerfald ( Lerfald pioneer farm ) was part of this operation as he owned an international td 9 crawler with dozer. Alvin assisted in the road building by pushing rocks off the pile that the caterpillar 42" elevator grader made eventually calling it the road! All of us boys that grew up on the Lerfald pioneer farm (Allan, Duane, Luther and Darrell ( buck ) Lerfald played in the ditches while constructing the roads here. Road construction started in the 30's and ended in mid to upper 50's. Fred beard was born and raised in the Reynolds, North Dakota area.
