  Lambert Vandenberg, one of the self-made men of Outagamie County, who h as become successful as an agriculturist through the force of his own indu stry, hard work and perserverance, backed by a strong determination to wi n, was born on the family farm which he now occupies, June 14, 1864, and is a son of John W. and Mary (Sass) Vandenberg. John W. Vandenberg w as born in Holland and came to the United States when about 35 years of ag e, bringing with him his mother and a brother Gilbert and two sisters, Har riet and Anne. He settled first for a time in Washington County, Wisconsi n, and then came to Freedom township, Outagamie county, buying wild lan d, which later was developed into the flourishing farm now occupied by h is son Lambert. The children were born here in a little log house and Lamb ert Vandenberg, although possessed of an intense desire for a good educati on, received only meager opportunities, what little tuition he secured bei ng received in the little red schoolhouse in Freedom, which he attended du ring a few months a year when there was nothing to do on the farm. His pri ncipal school however, was the school of hard work, and when still alitt le lad was given almost a grown man's work to accomplish each day, but th is probably instilled in him the traits of thrift, economy and perserveran ce and fitted him for the struggle that was to come afterwards and which e ventually to lead him to success. At eighteen years of age he left home a nd went to Iowa, where for two years he worked on a farm, and then return ed home. He was married on July 10, 1894 to Miss Elizabeth Scholl, daught er of John Scholl of Freedom township, and to this union there have been b orn 14 children, of whom three are deceased, the living being: John, Elle n, Joseph, Theodore, Johannah, Minnie, Vincent, Agnes, Rosella, Elmer a nd Angeline. When he was first married, Mr. Vandenberg rented the home place for three years, and then bought the property, on which he has carri ed on general farming ever since. He is known as a public-spirited citizen, and during the past years has served the township as postmaster. He a nd his wife belong to the Catholic Church in the village of Freedom. Based on this Lambert farmed the land where He was born - owned by John Vandenberg.
