  CHARLES EICK, a prospering farmer and stockraiser of Outagamie county, Wisconsin, who owns forty acres of well improved land situated in section 17, Osborn township is the sturdy type of citizen that every community is glad to welcome. He was born in Pomerania, Germany, May 4, 1842, a son of Charles and Minnie (Krasses) Eick. There were seven children in the family: William, Henrietta, Charles, August, Herman and a son and daughter, both of whom died in Germany in infancy. In the little German home there was often talk about the opportunities offered in America to the industrious young man and at length Charles Eick announced his determination of crossing the Atlantic ocean and investigating for himself. In 1868 he reached the United States and after four weeks spent in Chicago, Illinois, he came directly to Osborn township, Outagamie county and bought the forty acres on which he lives. It was all wild land at that time and he had neither tools nor time to clear and put the land under cultivation, therefore he worked at farm work for two years before he began to improve it in any way. In the meanwhile his father and the other members of the family joined him. Mr. Eick was very systematic about preparing his home and first invested in a cow as a productive piece of property and soon after bought a second one, but a yoke of oxen was needed before he could make headway in clearing the land. He found an opportunity to secure the oxen by clearing fourteen acres of land for John Knox. His first house was a log cabin, 20x26 feet in dimensions and he built also a log stable and barn. His present improvements are substantial and attractive, his residence being commodious and comfortable, while his basement barn is a huge structure 38x70 feet in dimensions. His land is all cleared and under cultivation, he has an excellent grade of stock and raises poultry, having excellent accommodations for them. In October, 1883, Mr. Eick was married to Bertha Krueger, who also was born in Germany, and they have the following children: Herman, who married Lena Stellmacker; Richard, who married a Miss Tokel; Walter, who married Miss Helms; Martha, who married Paul Heisler; Lydia, who married Charles Statler; George, who married a Miss Friback; Phillip, who remains at home; and Cora, who married a Mr. Collets.
