  Biography	1911
  History of Outagamie County, Wisconsin Page 1263
  The one biography for Theodore Weyenebrg covers Theodore born 1810, his son Theodore born 1840 and his grandson Theodore (son of George) born 1868. THEODORE WEYENBERG, whose agricultural operations in Vandenbroek township have covered a long period of years, is a good, practical farmer and a worthy representative of one of Outagamie county's old and honored families. His grandfather, Theodore Weyenberg, was born July 26, 1810, in Noordtproven, Holland, and came to the United States with his wife, Mary (Hendrix) Weyenberg, and seven children: Martin, Henry, William, John, George, Hank and Cornelius. Theodore Weyenberg first settled in Brown county, but after one year came to Outagamie county and settled in the township of Kaukauna, becoming a large land holder in that part that is now known as Vandenbroek township, where he died November 18, 1903. His wife, who was born May 3, 1803, died December 7, 1883. George Weyenberg, father of Theodore of this sketch, was born September 4, 1840, in Holland, and just remembers attending the schools of his native land. He was about eight years of age when he accompanied the family to this country, and attended the district schools in the neighborhood of his father's farm, on which he worked during the summer months, while working in the northern woods in the winters. On February 11, 1868, he was married to Mary Gloudemans, who was also a native of Holland and a daughter of Martin Gloudemans, and after his marriage resided on his father's farm for two years. He then purchased the land which he is now operating, and which he has developed from a wild, unimproved property with no buildings into one of the finest farms in the township. During the first fifteen years that he resided on this tract, he lived in a little log cabin he had himself built from logs cut on his own property, but he now has a modern, substantial residence, in addition to good barns and outbuildings. He and his wife had thirteen children, namely: Theodore, Mary, Peter, Annie, John, William, Henry, Nellie, Katherine, Rose, Hattie, Dora and George, of whom John, Henry and Dora are deceased. Mr. Weyenberg is well known to the citizens of Vandenbroek township, and has served as school clerk for twenty years. He and his wife are members of the St. John's congregation of the Catholic Church of Little Chute and are highly esteemed by all who know them. Theodore Weyenberg was born December 20, 1868, on the old homestead, and he received his education in the district schools of the neighborhood, his boyhood and youth being spent in work on the farm with the. exception of seven winters, when he was employed in the northern Michigan woods. In 1894 he was married to Georgiana, Jansen, who was born in Vandenbroek township, January 1, 1874, daughter of Mathew and Anna (Harchiss) Jansen,. and received her education in the neighboring district schools. After his marriage, Mr. Weyenberg bought the farm which he is now operating, and through hard and unremitting effort has brought it into a high state of cultivation. He has greatly improved the buildings, has fenced his farm neatly, and now ranks high among Vandenbroek township's substantial farmer-citizens. He and his wife are devout members of St. John's Catholic Church of Little Chute. They have had nine children, of whom two died: Mary, whose death occurred in infancy, and Gertrude, who passed away when two years old. The survivors are: George, Annie, Mary (II), Rose, Mathew, Dora and Hattie. Mrs. Weyenberg is also of Holland descent, her parents having come from that country in 1865 and settled in Outagamie county.
