On May 31, 1950, Mikel Anderson (then 84) and wife Helena (93) acting under Code section 670.5, Iowa Code, 1946, had their grandson, Milton J. Anderson, appointed their guardian. They owned 160 acres of land (the W% SEi¡4 and the E % SW14).

The “First Report”, filed January 31, 1951, stated the proceeding was started “for the sole purpose of assisting the wards with their affairs” and that the guardian had not taken charge of any of the personal property, but “has acted solely in an advisory capacity” and “has let the wards handle their own money and will do so as long as they are capable.”
