    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Born on the Jaastad farm in Ullensvang, Hardanger, he emigrated with his family to Deerfield, Wisconsin in 1886. In 1890 he began work in a furniture factory in Marshfield, Wisconsin. He moved in 1902 to Tucson, Arizona, where he worked as a carpenter and contractor. He opened an architectural firm in 1908 and during a fifty year career planned over 500 buildings, including homes, schools, churches, and commercial buildings. He served as mayor of Tucson from 1932 to 1947. The file includes a description of the Reilly Funeral Home, designed by Jaastad; random newspaper clippings; and &quot;Henry O. Jaastad: Architect of Tucson&#039;s Future,&quot; by Mona Lange McCroskey. Letters from Jaastad are found in the E. Klaveness, B. Osland, and K. Gjerset papers, P 551, P 574, and P 673. Also, see Kenneth Bjork&#039;s Saga in Steel and Concrete, pages 415-416.]]></dcterms:description>
