  JOHN VAN ROY, a well-known and highly esteemed farmer of Buchanan township, Outagamie county, who for the past twenty years has been carrying on operations on his present farm of forty acres in sections 24 and 25, was born in Brown county, Wisconsin, October 6, 1852, and is a son of Mathias and Mary (Van Veghel) Van Roy, natives of Holland, who were married in Brown county.They spent about nine years on a farm in that county, and then went to Green Bay, where Mr. Van Roy was engaged in conducting a hotel until his first wife's death in 1871, when she was forty-three years old. Mr. Van Roy then was married to Mrs. Van der Zandetl, who owned a farm of twenty-six acres in Buchanan township, on which his second wife died about four years later, and during the next nine years Mr. Van Roy lived with his son John. He was married for a third time to Mrs. Minnie Nooyen, of Appleton, and he died in 1905, aged eighty-six years, Mrs. Van Roy passing away three years later. John Van Roy was the eldest of the eight children born to his father's first marriage, and at the age of twenty years commenced working for wages, continuing thus for about two years.On April 22, 1875, he was married to Miss Clara Stein, daughter of Joseph and Susan (Hiddel) Stein, natives of Germany, who were married in that country and came to America about 1855, settling in Buchanan townshi p. Mr. Stein was a shoemaker by trade and worked at that occupation until his death, although during his latter years he farmed to some extent in connection. He died in January, 1871, and his widow in 1899, and both are buried in the Darboy Cemetery. Mrs. Van Roy was the third of a fami ly of four children, and was born February 28, 1855. Ten children were bo rn to Mr. and Mrs. Van Roy: Joseph, of Kimberly, whose wife died leaving him two children; Susan, who married John Renn, of Kaukauna, and has three children; Elizabeth, who married John Casper, of Appleton, and has thr ee children; Augusta, who married John Wolf, of Calumet county, and has t wo children; John, who is married and living in Manitowoc; Michael, who is single and living in Milwaukee; Martin, who is single and livi ng at home; Bert, who is single and living in Milwaukee; and Leo and Annie, who are single and living at home. Mr. Van Roy has twenty-two acres of his land under the plow and he carries on general farming and markets dairy products and some grain. He milks four cows. He has been living on this land since the spring of 1892, and in 1909 built his frame barn, 34x52 feet. His house has been remodeled twice, first in 1894 and again in 1907, and is now a modern, two-story veneered brick residence. His l and is neatly fenced with barbed and woven wire and the entire' property presents a neat and pleasing appearance.In political matters Mr. Van Roy is a Democrat, was a member of the township board of supervisors for four years and clerk of the school board for twelve years, and during the past two terms has served as treasurer of the township, an office which he is at present filling with great satisfaction. With his family he attends the Darboy Catholic Church.
