Biography

Neils Randquist — his name mangled to Nell Randqulst by the optical scan of the contemporary prisoner birthday list, and also printed Niels Rundquist — was held at the Maine State Prison in Thomaston and appeared on the political-prisoner lists circulated by radical organizations of the era; the labor press confirms him as one of the seamen imprisoned in Maine. His birthday was February 11. Beyond that, the accessible record runs dry: no reliable account of his charge, sentence, background, birth year, or precise custody dates has yet surfaced, and those fields are left unresolved rather than inferred.
