  JOSEPH TENNIE, one of the highly respected citizens of Greenville township, Outagamie county, where he owns a well-improved farm, is a native of Westphalia, Prussia, Germany, where he was born February 6, 1844, and a son of Joseph and Frances (Sigman) Tennie, born at Lugde, Prussia, the former in 1808 and the latter in 1812. Mr. Tennie's parents, who were farming people, never came to the United States. Joseph Tennie received his education in the schools of his native country, and at the age of twenty-eight years he came to the United States, settling in Greenville, where he worked for others until his marriage, and at that time settled on the farm he now occupies, which he had purchased a short time previously. He now has an excellent tract of eighty acres in this farm and also owns seventy acres across the road, and he is ably assisted in his agricultural pursuits by his sons. Mr. Tennie and his family rank among the best and most respectable citizens of Greenville township, and it is such as he, with willing and progressive disposition, industrious habits and law-abiding principles, that have made the township what it is. The family is connected with the Roman Catholic Church at Greenville. On April 10, 1877, Mr. Tennie was married to Emma Lippert, who was born in Greenville township, May 19, 1858, daughter of George and Frances (Sonderleiter) Lippert, natives of Baden, Germany, and early settlers of Outagamie county, Wisconsin. Both died in Greenville township, where they owned a large tract of land and carried on farming. Mr. and Mrs. Tennie have had eight children: Mary, single and residing at home; Joseph, a resident of Greenville township, engaged in the Rural Free Delivery service; Agnes, in the convent at St. Francis, Sister Ermelinda; and Oscar, John, George, Dora and Helen, all of whom reside at home.
