  History of Outagamie County, Wisconsin Page 1217
  MARTIN STRIEGEL, one of the early settlers of the vicinity of the town of Mackville, Outagamie county, Wisconsin, justice of the peace, proprietor of a general store and for many years a prominent man in public affairs in this section of Center township, was born about seventeen miles northwest of Milwaukee, in the town of Germantown, October 8, 1849, a son of Martin Striegel. The parents of Mr. Striegel, who were natives of Germany, came to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, when that city had a population of less than 1,000 inhabitants, took up land under the Government homestead laws, and here died when the young Martin was but five or six years of age. He accordingly went to live with his uncle, Andrew Striegel, and attended the district schools for four months, securing the rest of his education in the church school. At the age of thirteen years he went to work for himself for six months, and he was then bound out to another farmer by his uncle for a year. At the end of this time he learned the blacksmith's trade, which he followed for three years in the same shop in which he had served his apprenticeship, and during several years thereafter worked in various shops in the country. In 1870 he was married to Barbara Scherl, daughter of John and Barbara Scherl, natives of Germany who came to the United States and settled in Milwaukee, where Mrs. Striegel was born October 24, 1853. After his marriage, Mr. Striegel opened a shop of his own at Binghampton postoffice, where he had a farm of sixty-four acres, part being in Black Creek and part in Center township, and stayed there fifteen years, the first two years of which his brother Simon was his business partner. When he left there he was the owner of 148 acres of land, and he also purchased the seventy-four acre tract which he now owns, and on which he has erected a fine residence, good barns and other buildings. Here he is now conducting a general store. During the first year he came to this property, he operated the cheese factory located on the land, but this is now being conducted by other parties who rent from Mr. Striegel. This property forms a part of what is now known as Mackville, of which town Mr. Striegel was postmaster for four years, his term expiring when the rural free delivery service came into effect. He was town treasurer for seven years, school trustee for several years and for the past twelve years he has been justice of the peace. He was also treasurer of the church for many years. He and Mrs. Striegel belong to St. Edward's Catholic Church at Mackville. He was one of the earliest settlers of this part of the country, and has seen the country develop from a wilderness into a land of prosperity. During the many years that he has lived here he has done his full share in helping this development, and he is honored and esteemed as one of Center township's representative men and good citizens. Of the twelve children born to Mr. and Mrs. Striegel, nine are now living: Margaret, who married John Deml, of Grand Chute township; John, who married Rosa Kohl, of Grand Chute township; Mary, who married Joseph Griesbach; Andrew, who married Theresa Breidenbach of Black Creek township; Catherine, who married Antone Decker, of Seymour township; Regina, who married William Kohl, of Grand Chute township; and Joseph, George and Peter, residing at home.
