Biography:
CHARLES F. ZAHRT, whose fine forty-acre property adjoins the city of Seymour, Wisconsin, on section 28, Seymour township, is a native of Wisconsin, having been born in Dodge county, January 1, 1855, a son of John and Caroline (Krugler) Zahrt, natives of Germany. The parents of Mr. Zahrt were married in Germany, and came to the United States on a sailing vessel which took eight weeks for the journey across the ocean, and first located on a tract of twenty acres of wild land in Dodge county, Wisconsin. In 1869 the family removed to Ellington township, Outagamie county, coming with a yoke of oxen and one cow to a wild tract of eighty acres, and living under the tree tops until a shack could be erected for their protection. Here the family lived for eight or nine years and then moved to Stephensville, Wisconsin, on another unimproved eighty acres. They lived here about nine years and then came to Seymour township. Here they purchased forty acres of wild land on which they lived for fifteen years. From here they moved to the village of Stephensville, Wisconsin, where Mrs. Zahrt spent her last years. She was born in Germany in 1818 and died February 4, 1891. John Zahrt was born June 16, 1815, and died April 10, 1910. To Mr. and Mrs. Zahrt were born six children, namely: Augusta, who was born in 1845, and who died in 1865; William, born in 1848, a retired farmer of Appleton, Wisconsin; twins born in 1852, and died 1854, having been buried at sea while the family were en route to this country; Charles F.; and Adolph born in 1858, and died 1887. Charles F. Zahrt's boyhood days were filled with the hard, unremitting labor that attends the breaking in of a new country, and his education in the schools of Ellington was somewhat limited. When he reached the age of twenty years he struck out for himself and for one year worked for his brother, and during the four or five years following spent his winters in work in the lumber mills and the summer months on the farm. He also went to school for a winter or two after he was twenty years of age, and eventually purchased a tract of uncultivated land in Shawano county. He started with a log shack 12x16 feet, in which he lived while he cleared up the land and then erected some good frame buildings. During the following ten years he "bached it," but in 1893 he was married to Mary Hallam and they continued to reside on his property for seven years. In 1900 Mr. Zahrt sold this and moved near the city of Seymour, but after one year there removed to the present home, a tract of forty acres adjoining the city, on section 28 where he has finely improved property and is actively engaged in general farming. Mrs. Zahrt was born in Calumet county, Wisconsin, September 7, 1874, daughter of John and Jane (Baker) Hallam, the former a native of England and the latter of Calumet county. Mr. and Mrs. Hallam had three children, namely: George, Mary and Bessie. Mr. and Mrs. Zahrt have been the parents of three children: Effie, born November 25, 1894, who died September 18, 1895; Gladys, born November 25, 1895; and Elmer, born June 6, 1898.
