  JOHN JAMES NIELAND, who is operating a tract of 135 acres in Grand Chute township as a general and dairy farm, is one of this section's good, practical agriculturists. He was born in Greenville township, Outagamie county, Wisconsin, August 15, 1871, and is a son of John and Rachael (Burr) Nieland, natives of Germany, the father born in Mecklenburg, September 15, 1834, and the mother in Preisen, September 17, 1834. John Nieland came to the United States with his parents in 1857 and located at Manitowoc, where Mr. Nieland worked in a sawmill until the family removed to Dale township, Outagamie county and located on a forty-acre farm. He worked for farmers in this vicinity until his enlistment, in August, 1862, in Company I, Thirty-second Regiment, Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry, and with this organization he served two years and ten months, being mustered out of the service at Washington, D. C. Mr. Nieland had an excellent war record, and was never wounded nor confined to the hospital. He had married in May, 1862, before going to the front, and after his services were completed he returned to his home and soon thereafter settled on a farm in Greenville township, on which he remained about nine years. He eventually sold this and bought a farm in Dale township, and on this eighty-acre tract he continued to live twenty-one years, when he sold out and retired to Appleton, where he now lives in his residence at No. 1265 Oneida street. Mrs. Nieland died November 5, 1909. They were the parents of seven children: Ernest and John, who are deceased; Carrie, wife of William Schroeder, of Greenville township, a farmer; Henry, married, a resident of South Division street, Appleton; John James, married; Louis, a resident of Maple street, Appleton, and Frederick, who lives with his father. John James Nieland received his education in school district No. 2, Dale township, and at the age of twenty years took charge of the homestead farm, which he conducted for four years. He then engaged in a sawmill business at Hartland, Shawano county, for about two years, when a disastrous fire destroyed his plant, and during the next eight years he worked for others, trying to recuperate his losses. At the end of this period Mr. Nieland rented a farm in Grand Chute township for about five years, since which time he has operated his present 135-acre tract as a general and dairy farm. He keeps a number of fine dairy cattle, and his property is fitted with a full complement of up-to-date equipments. He has given his entire attention to his farming operations, and is now considered one of Grand Chute township's substantial agriculturists. Mr. Nieland is fraternally connected with the Modern Woodmen at Appleton. On September 16, 1896, Mr. Nieland was united in marriage with Miss Anna Haefs, who was born December 27, 1877, in Kewanee county, Wisconsin, daughter of Herman and Gusta (Krueger) Haefs, natives of Pommerin, Germany, where the father was born June 1, 1855, and the mother December 10, 1859. Mr. Haefs came to the United States when he was fourteen years of age, and located at Mayville, Dodge county. He grew to maturity on his father's rented farm in Shawano county, where he later became a landowner, and he is still residing there on a farm, although he has practically retired from farming activities. Mr. and Mrs. Haefs had a family of children as follows: Anna, who married Mr. Nieland; Charles, a farmer of Montana; Hulda, who married Frank Hiller, a farmer of Hartland township, Shawano county; August, a lumber grader of Gresham, Wisconsin; Mary, who married Peter Hoppensberger, a watchman in the paper mill at Combined Locks; Benjamin, a tinner of Bondwell, Shawano county; Elmer, who resides in Gresham, and one who died in infancy. To Mr. and Mrs. Nieland there have been born five children: Hazel Myrtle, born August 24, 1897; Chester Harold, born November 17, 1899; Lucile Bessie, born March 24, 1905; Ivor Charles, born December 21, 1907, and Ethel May, born May 28, 1909.
