BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES (HALL - ZWANZIGER)
R. A. WALD, under-sheriff, is a native of Berlin, Prussia, and was born in 1849, arriving in America with his parents in 1856, and receiving his education in Burlington, Racine Co., Wis., where his father had located, and where he, for many years, carried on an extensive tannery. The subject of this sketch upon attaining manhood's years acted as his father's traveling salesman, and subsequently for a Milwaukee hide and leather house. Owing to the delicate health of his wife, whom Mr. Wald was compelled to move to a milder climate, he, in 1878, located in this county, and turned his attention to insurance, representing the German Fire Insurance Company, of Freeport, Ill.; Connecticut, of Hartford; Home and Star Companies, of New York, and Union, of Philadelphia. Mr. Wald is a constable of the township, and also under-sheriff of the county.

From Schuylkill County Pennsylvania, Genealogy - Family History - Biographies, Volume II, Chicago, Illinois, J H. Beers & Company, 1916, Pages 698 - 700

MANUEL W. BROMMER, of Landingville, Schuyklill county, seems to have found the solution of being “pleasantly and profitably employed” for himself, at any rate, and his beautifully kept little property is one of the features of the neighborhood, where enterprises similar to his are rare. For a number of years Mr. Broomer was an employee of the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad Company, and in that capacity and as hotelkeeper at Landingville, he has a very wide acquaintance. Born Nov 6, 1857, in South Manheim township, Schuylill county, he is a son of Lewis Brommer and grandson of Henry Brommer. The latter came to this country from Germany with his wife and one child, and settled at Schuylkill Haven, Schuylkill Co., Pa. By trade he was a carpenter, and as such was employed at the locks when the Schuylkill canal was under construction.
Lewis Brommer, father of Manuel W. Brommer, was born in Wayne Township. While living in Schuylkill county, he followed farming, and in 1879 he moved out ot Missouri, settling at Boonville, where he continued agricultural pursuits, also making a specialty of hog raising. He prospered and continued to reside there until his death. His wife was Eliza Reber, daughter of Samuel Reber, and they had children as follows: Manuel W., Morris, Harry, Robert, Francis, Fulton, Carrie, Jennie and Pearl.
Manuel W. Brommer attended public school during his boyhood, and later in 1874-75, was a student of the Keystone State Normal School at Kutztown, Pa. In his young manhood he taught six terms of school in Schuylkill county, after when he entered the service of the Philadephia & Reading Railroad Company. Following a short experience as brakeman he became conductor of a freight train, and soon afterwards a passenger train, for eight years being so engaged on the best train on his division, the “Cannon Ball,” running between Pottsville and Philadelphia. His employment with the railroad company extended over a period of twenty years, and he retired in 1899, at which time he bought the hotel at Landingville. He conducted it as a proprietor for seven years, leasing the property, and made a thorough success of his business, but gave it up to enter his present line, the raising of high-grade chickens.
Mr. Brommer has bought the small piece of ground on the road running west from Landingville, a short distance from the railroad station, two and a quarter acres, which was all woodland when it came into his possession. He put up a little two-story house, where he has since resided, and during the intervening years has improved the place with the idea of making it an ideal poultry establishment. Most of his land is on a hillside, and at the foot of the hill is a fine stream of clear water, a great advantage for his purpose. He has eight pens, 8 by 10 feet in size, with wire inclosures 10 by 100 feet for each, the latter extending down the slope of the hill to the creek at the bottom. The houses are of the open front variety, protected in the winter by muslin curtains. After considerable study of the various breeds of poultry, Mr. Brommer decided on the White Leghorns, which he keeps exclusively, and after importing a pen of Tom Barron Single Comb White Leghorns from Preston, England, he had such favorable results that he has tried no other kind since. At present he has about one hundred and fifty chickens, old and young, and the effect of scientific feeding and unremitting care is very well demonstrated, for often, even during the winter season, he gathers as many eggs daily as there are hens in the pens. The eggs are always very large, averaging nearly two pounds to the dozen, and he has been unable to supply the demand for hatching purposes. In one season from his small flock he has disposed of more than one hundred and fifty dollars worth in eggs for hatching purposes. Mr. Brommer has made a thorough study of feed, housing and the ideal conditions for his tock, and though he has taken infinite pains and neglected no precautions to keep the chickens in the best condition, his arrangements have been so perfected that he is able to accomplish all the necessary work with the minimum of labor. Cleanliness is the prime consideration, white wash is used plentifully wherever needed, and all the property is kept in a most attractive state, neatness and true economy being the most conspicuous characteristics. The fee house is one of the best arranged in the country. Mr. Brommer erected is especially for his purpose and it is admirably equipped, about 20 feet square and three stories high. The lower floor is used for the mixing of the feed and provided with two large mixing troughs, a grinder and a gasoline engine. After being mixed in the trough the feed is ground, and then placed in the hopper and fed. The hoppers are large enough to hold a week’s supply of grain, thus eliminating much of the work of feeding. The second floor is so arranged that a team can back up against the front from the road and deliver the bags of feed right on the floor. The bins, six in number, with a capacity of 400 bushels, are on this floor, three on either side of the aisle. These bins are equipped on the bottom with chutes, leading into and operated from the basement, and when Mr. Brommer wants a certain kind of grain, he simply taps it from the bin. The third floor is used for storage purposes. Here he keeps his incubators when not in use, and various other articles.
Along with the raising of poultry Mr. Brommer has continued the clearing of his land and its improvement in other lines. He plants a fair sized garden, raising enough vegetables for his own use, and he has set out fifty peach trees, principally to supply shade for the chickens when the brush and trees originally on the land have all been cleared away. Last year he set out a strawberry bed 20 by 100 feet in size. His little establishment is a model of its kind, and though he has expended much time and means on its development the venture is paying him well. Combining study with intelligent labor he has worked out many problems of the business to which he now devotes his time, making experiments which assist his neighbors as well as himself, and showing the possibilities of the industry in this section he has accomplished at least one thing of distinct value to his neighborhood.
Mr. Brommer is a skillful watchmaker and jeweler, and while on the railroad he was well known as a reliable repairman, many of his fellow trainmen bringing their watches to him for care and adjustment. He continues to follow this trade as occasion demands. Mr. Brommer is a member of the Improved Order of Red Men.

Paul Rosburg

Paul Rosburg, one of the most popular and successful farmers in Perry township, was born in Germany on May 25, 1859, being the son of Frederick and Mary (Seitz) Rosburg, both of whom were natives of that country. In 1867 the family decided to come to America, where there were better opportunities for the parents and those dependent upon them. Educated as they were in the schools of Germany, they were taught the strictest economy and industry; thus it was that, when the father and mother left the land of their nativity and the many never-to-be-forgotten scenes of their childhood, they were well prepared, so far as their training was concerned, to care for themselves in the new land. The father, as a young man, learned the wagon-maker's trade, but when he came to the United States and located at Shellburg, Benton county, Iowa, where he died, he followed the occupation of a carpenter.

To Frederick and Mary Rosburg were born the following children: Mary, William, Eula, Adolph and Paul. The mother of these children died many years ago, and after her death the father married Mary Schotle, to whom the following children were born: Charles, Herman, Margaret and Emma. The family were reared in the faith of the German Lutheran church and lived consistent Christian lives.

Paul Rosburg was but eight years of age when he came with his parents to Benton county, Iowa, where he received his education and grew to manhood. In 1895 he was united in marriage to Marry Saggan and they established their home in Crawford county, where Mr. Rosburg owned a farm. In 1901 he sold his farm in that county and moved to Plymouth county, where he purchased land and at one time owned seven hundred and seventy-six acres. He now lives in section 2 and is engaged in general farming and stock raising, being numbered among the substantial and successful men of the county. The buildings were on the place when Mr. Rosburg purchased the tract, yet he has done much in the way of improvement. His farm is one of the best in the township and is under a high state of cultivation and nicely located.

Mary Saggan Rosburg was born on September 7, 1864, and is the daughter of Hans and Christine (Storjohann) Saggan, who were natives of Denmark, and he was a soldier in the Prussian war. The family came to the United States in 1872, landing at the port of New York, and came at once to Chicago, The year after the devastating fire. Mr. Saggan farmed in Illinois for some years and then came to Iowa, locating in Crawford county. It was there that Paul Rosburg met and married their daughter, Mary, and to this union the following children have been born: Edward, who married Augusta Fester; August, whose wife is Alexandra Zoun; Christine, the wife of Fred Topken; Martin, whose wife is Agnes Curry; Julius; Charles; Marie, the wife of Harry Schindel; Ella, Paul and Anna.

3632 In 1914 was living in Correctionsville, Iowa with her daughter, Emma Jane Borah. Her father was a Frenchman who married a lady of English birth. Brosseau, Flavia Ann (I14645)
 
3633 In 1916 the entire town of Paris burned, and my Dad moved his wife and son to paris, TX to help in the reconstruction. This was the only time he was in the Carpenter's Union, and I just recently came across his Union cards. He wife left Paris to care for her sister in Hillsboro who had contracted influenza, as her mother had passed away a few years earlier. My mother told me that her sister recovered, but Donald did not. As so, my Dad took Carl Jacob to live with his Dad and sister in booniville, as he could not take care of his business.

And in paris he met my mother who was a portrait photographer at the time.

My Dad was very devoted to his father, John Jacob and his sister, Adele. He had a very sad beginning to his life - losing his mother when he was only 10 years old and being raised by his sister, his first wife dying in the influenza epidemic of a918, and then losing his baby boy at age 10. So I imagine it was painful for him to talk of those things. I remember Carl Jacob's picture being on the dresser all of my growing up years. However he had a very happy life after he and my mother married. And he was always jolly and was full of funny stories - and he absolutely loved children - in fact, he was a big kid himself as long as he was in good health. He had many, many friends with who he fished and hunted.

He followed his father's and brother's trade of cabinet and boat builder and wood carver. His advertising always said: "Anything Made of Wood."

In 1989, I was approached by a physicianin Paris asking if I could provide information on my father's life, as he was thinking of writing a book on the furniture builders of Lamar Co., TX, as it was the furniture maufacturing capitol of Texas in the early 1900s. I was so happy to do this, and was able to collect more than 100 pages of pictures and text that I sen tto him.
