  FRED BARTELS, who is cultivating the old Bartels homestead farm in Seymour township, is one of the progressive agriculturists of this section, and has resided in Outagamie county all of his life. He was born at Greenville, Wisconsin, October 26, 1872, a son of Henry and Caroline (Rump) Bartels. Henry Bartels was born in Mecklenberg-Schwerin, Germany, and on first coming to the United States, in 1867, he located in Chicago, where he remained for one year. He then spent two years on farms near Chicago, after which he came to Wisconsin and located in Outagamie county, securing employment from the farmers in the vicinity of Greenville until he had accumulated enough, in 1874, to purchase the homestead on Section 19. He cultivated this property from virgin soil into one of the finest farms in Seymour township, and gradually advanced from the days of the log cabin to those of the modern ten-room frame house, and at the time of his death, May 16, 1910, when he was seventy-seven years old, he was one of the substantial farmers and respected members of the Lutheran Church of this section. Mrs. Bartels, whom Mr. Bartels married March 4, 1867, in Chicago, died in 1899, when sixty-three years of age. They had three children: John, who died aged three years; Henry, who was one year old at the time of his death; and Fred . Fred Bartels received his education in the district schools, was reared to manhood on the home farm, and remained there until his father's death, at which time he took up the active management of the place. He was married in 1892 to Emma Lenz, who was born in Germany, a daughter of Louis Lenz. She was born March 15, 1871, and came to the United States alone when she was twenty-one years old, her mother having died when she was three years of age. Mr. and Mrs. Bartels have had these children: Hulda, born December 16, 1893; Carl, born January 2, 1897, who died October 3, 1909; Hubert B., born January 3, 1900; Thusnelda, born February 11, 1905; and William, born January 29, 1909. The family belong to the Lutheran Church. Mr. Bartels has improved the home place since taking up the management, and it presents a well-kept appearance that speaks well for the ability of its owner. He is interested in movements that he thinks will tend to advance the community in an educational, agricultural or industrial way, and can be counted upon to lend his influence, time and means in behalf of such measures .
