RUDOLPH J. TELLOCK, the owner of a farm of 140 acres in Greenville township, has also been identified with the grass matting business in this section for a number of years. He was born in Dantzig, Pomerania, Germany, March 20, 1861, a son of John and Doris Tellock, who came to the United States in 1867, locating in Wolf River township, Winnebago county, Wisconsin, where Mr. Tellock was engaged in farming until his death in 1891, his wife having passed away in April, 1888. They had a family of eight children, Rudolph J. being the fifth born. He attended school in Wolf River township, and when only sixteen years of age went to work on the river, where he worked for twenty years, rising to the position of crew manager. He then began working for the Oshkosh Grass Matting Company, with which firm he continued seven years, and in 1888 he moved to Winchester township, where he had a farm of 100 acres, which was being operated by his sons. He continued to reside there until 1909, when he sold out and came to Greenville township, where he operates a dairy farm of 140 acres. He is still engaged in the matting business to some extent, being employed by the Waite Grass Carpet Company of Oshkosh, having charge of the cutting and baling of the grass, which is shipped from Minnesota to the factory. Mr. Tellock is a member of the Lutheran Church, and in politics an independent Republican.

Mr. Becker was one of the first land owners in Winnebago county, and built the first house in Wolf River township. Carl Becker died in that township in March, 1889, his wife having passed away the month previous. Thirteen children were born to them, of whom two survive: Mrs. Tellock, and Emil William, a resident of Oshkosh, in the employ of the Paine Company; Mr. and Mrs. Tellock have had nine children, namely: Frank Elmer, born February 16, 1884; William Amil John, born March 23, 1886, a cheesemaker of Menasha, Wisconsin, married Alma Pyratz; Lydia, born May 8, 1888, died April 18, 1889; Emil Henry, born February 20, 1890; Alfred Carl, born April 23, 1892; Edward Henry, born July 6, 1894; Erwin Ferdinand, born December 17, 1896; Albert Otto, born April 26, 1899, and Gladys Joy, born August 31, 1902.
