ORLANDO NAGREEN, who is cultivating eighty acres of farming land situated in section 5, Maine township, is a native of DeKalb county, Illinois, where he was born November 19, 1862, a son of Joseph and Sarah (Thompson) Nagreen. Joseph Nagreen, who was a native of Austria, came to America in the early '50s, settling in Illinois. From Sycamore, that State, he enlisted at the outbreak of the Civil War, in Company F, Twentieth Illinois Volunteer Infantry, serving three years. Mr. Nagreen had previously seen three and one-half years' service in the Austrian army, during which he had never been wounded, but during the Civil War he received a wrist wound in addition to suffering a sun-stroke. After the war he engaged in his trade of cabinet-making until his eyesight failed, about 1885, and he is now living retired in Appleton, at the age of eighty-seven years. His wife, who is a native of Pennsylvania, is seventy-seven years old, and they have been the parents of ten children, of whom Orlando was the fifth in order of birth. At the age of twelve years Orlando Nagreen commenced working for wages on the farms in the vicinity of this home, continuing thus until he was nineteen years old, when he began the manufacture of wooden pumps, also drilling artesian wells, and so continued for about eight years. He then went into the mines east of Ironwood, where he operated a steam drill for a company in Appleton one year. In June, 1889, Mr. Nagreen purchased his present farm, which was mostly wild land at that time, but he now has sixty acres under cultivation and twenty acres of wood land, his farm being neatly fenced with barbed and woven wire. His basement barn was built in the summer of 1902 and his present residence was built during his second year on this place, but he intends to replace this with a new one in the near future. He is engaged in general farming and stock raising, making a specialty of dairying and hog raising. He is a member of the Fraternal Reserve Association, as is also his wife, and is a Republican in politics, having served for two years as supervisor of his township. On August 2, 1890, Mr. Nagreen was married to Mrs. Addie Diemel, who was born July 29, 1866, daughter of Thomas and Margaret Allen. She is the widow of Jacob Diemel, and had two children by her first marriage: George, of Aniwa, Wisconsin; and Orville, married and living in Outagamie county, the father of one child. Three children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Nagreen, of whom one died in infancy; Sarah Margaret was born November 18, 1895; and Raymond Artie was born February 13, 1903.
