Overview
Cando was the birthplace of Rodney Stadum in 1948 and home to Cando High School, which Peggy Stadum attended in the early 1950s.
Situated in north-central North Dakota, Cando is the county seat of Towner County. The family established roots in Cando during the mid-20th century. Roster listings in the Cando High School yearbook connect Peggy to the town's school history, while births and family notes establish Cando as Rodney's birthplace before the family consolidated archival materials elsewhere in the state.
