  HENRY C. COURT. The farmers of Outagamie county are among the most progressive in the State, for this part of it is especially fertile and adapted to agricultural purposes. One of those who have proven the profit to be had from the cultivation of the soil is Henry C. Court, a well-known farmer of Grand Chute township, who was born on the farm which he now operates, August 27, 1867, a son of Andrew and Marie Court, natives of Prussia and Mecklenburg, Germany, respectively. Andrew Court came to the United States about 1864, and for one year resided in New York, then removing to Outagamie county, and settling on the farm which is now operated by his son, Henry C. Here he resided until 1901, and then retired from active life and went to live with his son Emil, a resident of Appleton who is employed as shipping clerk in the Sulphite Paper Mill. Another brother, Herman, is operator for the St. Paul Railroad, at Green Bay. Henry C. Court attended the public schools of Greenville township, and at the age of eighteen years commenced working as a farm hand among the farmers of his locality, continuing to act in this capacity until his marriage, when he bought the old family homestead of 110 acres. Here he has carried on general farming and stock raising, and has made numerous improvements and installed new innovations in the way of equipment and machinery, and has one of the best farms in this part of the township.
