  SEBASTIAN GRIESBACH. One of the well-known and influential families of Cen ter township is that of Griesbach, worthy representatives of which m ay be found in Sebastian, John and Henry Griesbach, brothers, sons of Casp er Griesbach. Casper Griesbach was a native of Germany, and came from th at country to the United States in 1860, when twenty-three years of age. L anding at New York, he proceeded thence to Milwaukee, on to Appleton, a nd eventually to Center township, where he purchased land in the woods a nd built a .log house. He subsequently became one of the county's most pro minent farmers and large landholders, improving his land and erect- ing n ew buildings from time to time, and finally, in 1899, he retired from acti ve labor and went to live in Appleton, where he has his own house. Mr. Gri esbach married Annie Bauer, who was born in Germany and came to this count ry as a girl with her parents, and she still survives. They had a fami ly of eight children. Sebastian Griesbach was born December 31, 1868, on t he home farm, and his education was secured in the district schools. Bei ng the eldest of the family, he naturally had more of the home responsibil ity upon his shoulders when a boy, and had limited opportunity to secu re an education, but made the most of such chances as he had, and has sin ce educated himself by self teaching, much reading and keen observation.When his father retired, he bought his present place of 120 acres, a pa rt of the old homestead, and here he has successfully carried on general f arming and dairying operations to the present time.On April 18, 1899, Mr. Griesbach was married to Josephine Deimer, daught er of Joseph and Anna Deimer, of Ellington township.

Mr. a nd Mrs. Griesbach belong to St. Edward's Catholic church, at Mackvill e. In political matters he is a democrat.John Griesbach was born April 16, 1874 on the old home place, in the sto ne house built by his father to replace the original log cabin. His educat ion was secured in the district schools of his neighborhood and the Cathol ic Sisters' school at Mackville, but when he was about fifteen years of a ge he completed his studies and took up his duties on the home farm. On Ap ril 12, 1899, he married Sophia Ellenbecker, daughter of Richard and Ann ie Ellenbecker, of Center township. After his marriage, Mr. Griesbach's fa ther moved to Appleton and sold the 200 acres to John and Henry Griesbac h, and they lived on this place one and one-half years, at the end of whi ch time John Griesbach erected a new house and barns on the land, to whi ch he moved, and where he has lived to the present time, being engag ed in general farming and also carrying on dairying. He has a family of s ix children, namely: Marie, Annie, Anthony, Robert, Hobart and Leonar d.

Henry Griesbach was born April 8, 1877, on his father's farm, where he n ow resides, and secured his education in the district schools and the Sist ers' school at Mackville, attending the latter until he had reached the a ge of fourteen or fifteen years. He always worked on the home place, a nd at the time of his father's retirement, he purchased his present farm w ith his brother, John.
