  FRANK PETIT, justice of the peace and leading agriculturist of Liberty township, whose excellent farm is located on New London Rural Route No. 5, was born August 21, 1847, in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, a son of Frank and Elmyra (Bellamer) Petit. Joseph Petit was born in Quebec, Canada, and when a lad of fifteen years came to Fond du Lac with his father, Lambert Petit. At the time the Green Bay Railroad was built, about forty years ago, he moved to Outagamie county and purchased the property which is now being operated by his son Frank. He married Elmryra Bellamer, and they had nine children. Mr. Petit served as a soldier during the Civil War, in a Wisconsin regiment, from which he was honorably discharged at the cessation of hostilities. Frank Petit attended school for a short time in Fond du Lac, but the major part of his education was secured in the district schools of Liberty township, and the greater part of his youth and young manhood was spent on the home farm, with the exception of four years when he was in Tomahawk, Wisconsin, where he operated the first hotel and ferry boat. At the age of twenty-five years, Mr. Petit returned to Outagamie county and worked on land that he had bought near the home place, living there until about eight years ago, when his father retired from active life and Frank bought the home place, which he has operated with much success ever since. In June, 1870, he was married to Laura Young, daughter of Peter Young, of Maple Creek, and they have had two children: Edward and Louis, both at home assisting their father. The family is connected with the Catholic church at New London. Mr. Petit has been justice of the peace for more than twenty years and several years ago served very acceptably in the office of township treasurer
