Biography:
FREDERICK ORT, an industrious young farmer of Ellington township, Outagamie county, who is engaged in cultivating 10 acres of good land along scientific lines, is a native of Germany, and was born September 17, 1872, a son of John and Mary (Teise) Ort, natives of the Fatherland. John Ort brought his family to the United States in 1877, coming direct to Wisconsin and settling in Freedom township, where he lived for two years. He then went to Winnebago county for two years, after which he located in Ellington township, buying land and engaging in farming until his retirement, since which time he has resided in Freedom, where his wife is also living. They had a family of three children. Mr. Ort is a veteran of the Franco-Prussian War. Frederick Ort received his education in the district schools in the vicinity of his father's farm, attending until he was seventeen years old and working on his father's farm and the neighboring tracts and giving his earnings to his father until he was twenty-one years old. In 1897 he was married to Ellen Pingle, of Appleton, daughter of Charles and Mary Pingle, and after his marriage lived in Appleton for two years, working by the month. He then rented a farm in Grand Chute township for two years, and in 1901 bought his present splendid farm of 160 acres, on which he has since carried on mixed farming and dairy work. In 1907 he built a fine, new modern residence, and he is at present erecting some large barns. He is an adherent of the use of scientific methods in cultivating his land, and the success which has met his efforts justifies his beliefs. He and Mrs. Ort are members of the German Lutheran church of Ellington, and he is independent in his political views. He has had seven children: Marie, Edward, Harold, Lucile, Vera, Bernice and John, the last two being twins.
