Secor, Miss Nina, was born at Forest City, Iowa in 1886. Upon the death of her father, Eugene Secor, in 1919, Miss Secor took up the work of raising and introducing the Secor seedlings. She has been assisted in this work by Lee R. Bonnewitz, of Van Wert, Ohio, and W.A. Sisson of Rosendale, Wisconsin.
