The vocation of tilling the soil has been numbered among the honored
occupations since early history. Among the good, practical agriculturalists
of Langlade County [Wisconsin] who thoroughly understand their vocation
and have secured a full measure of success in the conduct of their farm
is Fred BUELOW, a lifelong farmer, born in Germany on 30 July 1865, the
son of Fred and Vendelina (STRICKER) BUELOW.
When six years of age he moved to Edgerton, Rock County, Wisconsin,
and a year later the family moved to Oshkosh, Winnebago County, Wisconsin.
After residing there for six years, they moved to Clintonville, Waupaca
County [Wisconsin]. For thirty-eight years Mr. BUELOW resided in
the country, having his farm in the Town of Matteson [Waupaca County, Wisconsin].
In 1915 he moved to Enterprise [Oneida County], Wisconsin, and resided
there on his tract of eighty acres for three years. He then moved
to Antigo Township, Langlade County, Wisconsin, in November 1917.
He has fifteen acres of well developed land and is engaged in general farming
and the cultivation of strawberries. He supplies the Antigo market
with his luscious strawberries in season.
Fred BUELOW was married on 10 November 1892 to Minnie STEENBOCH,
a native of Sheboygan County, Wisconsin. To his union eight children
were born: Arthur, who resides on the eighty acre farm at Enterprise,
Wisconsin; Hilda, now Mrs. William KUNZIE, of Enterprise, Wisconsin; Walter,
Otto, Viola, Lydia, Raymond, and Gordon, all of Antigo Township [Langlade
County].
While a resident of Matteson Township [Waupaca County], Mr. BUELOW
was honored with fifteen years of successive duty as a school officer in
District No. 3. The BUELOWs are members of the Antigo Peace Evangelical
Church. |
