with an aunt, and they located in Outagamie County, where he attended
school for about a year, having previously been tutored in his native
country. He worked on the farms of Ellington township until his marriage,
after which for one year he operated on his father-in-law's farm. He then
secured employment in the grist mill in Appleton for three years, and
spent a number of years in the lumber yard, but eventually purchased a

agricultural pursuits until his death. He was a member of the Evangelical
Church and a Republican in politics. Then article gives his marriage
