Charles L. Rosburg

One of the well-know and prominent retired farmers of Remsen is Charles L. Rosburg, who was born at Davenport, on March 1, 1855, the son of Charles H. and Mary (Kart) Rosburg, natives of Holstein, Germany, who continued to live in the land of their nativity until 1854, when they decided to come to America. On their arrival in the United States they came direct to Iowa and located at Davenport. As a young man, Charles H. Rosburg learned the shoemaker's trade and he worked at his trade at Davenport until 1861, when he removed to Benton county, where he continued at his work and later purchased a farm. He developed and improved the place and there engaged in general farming until 1893, when he moved to a farm he had purchased near Sibley, and there he lived until the time of his death in 1895, at the age of eighty-one years. After the death of her husband, Mrs. Rosburg sold the farm and moved to Chandler, Minnesota, where she continued to live until the time of her death in 1912, at the age of eighty-one years. Mr. and Mrs. Rosburg were active members of the Lutheran church, always took much interest in church work and were prominent in the social and religious life of the community, where they were held in the highest regard and esteem by all who knew them. They were the parents of nine children, Charles L., George, Lewis, Bertha, Albert, Herman, John, Henry and Otto, all of whom are now deceased with the exception of Charles L., John and Henry. John Rosburg is a merchant at Newhall, Iowa and Henry Rosburg is retired at Slayton, Minnesota.

Charles L. Rosburg received his education in the public schools of Benton county and grew to manhood on the home farm, where as a young man he assisted his father with the farm work. He remained at home until he was twenty-one years of age, after which for a time he worked for others as a farm hand. On February 28, 1879, he was married to Mary Sagner, who was born in Holstein, Germany, and who came with her parents to America in 1868. The father settled in Benton county, Iowa, where he purchased a farm and where he engaged in general farming and stock raising until 1893, when he moved to Lake Wilson, Minnesota. He later lived with Mr. Rosburg for a short time and there he and his wife died two months apart, in 1905, his death having occurred on June 30 and hers on April 30. Mr. Sagner was one of the well-known and successful men of his county and he and his wife were among the prominent members of the social and the religious life of the district. They were the parents of three children, Fritz and Lizzie, who are living at Lake Wilson, and Mary, the wife of Mr. Rosburg. To Charles L. and Mary Rosburg have been born four children, Louis, Gustave, Ella and Lewis. Louis Rosburg is a farmer at Garretson, South Dakota. Gustave Rosburg, who is engaged in farming on the home place, married Anna Erdman and has one child, Lisle. Ella Rosburg became the wife of Fred Erdman and to them were born three children, Erline, now deceased, Ranville and Merlin. They live at Luverne, Minnesota. Lewis is unmarried and is at home.

Soon after their marriage, Charles L. Rosburg and wife located in Benton county, where Mr. Rosburg engaged in general farming until 1884, when they came to Plymouth county. Here they purchased a farm of one hundred and twenty acres in section 10 of Remsen township. The place at that time was but partly developed and was without improvements. Mr. Rosburg at once built a small house and began the task of developing his farm. He was successful and later increased his holdings to one hundred and sixty acres and improved his place with substantial and modern buildings. He was interested in good horses, Aberdeen Angus cattle and Poland China hogs and became known as one of the substantial farmers and stockmen of the township. Mr. Rosburg always took an active interest in local affairs and for twenty-one years was trustee of his home township and for fifteen years served on the school board, being a member of the board at the time the new school house was built in Remsen. He was always a strong advocate of the best of schools and the highest class of public improvements and devoted the same careful attention to his official duties that he did to his own private affairs. Being a man of ability and excellent judgment, his advice and influence were often sought in matters that pertained to the interest of both the township and the county. For the past three years Mr. Rosburg has been road supervisor of the Remsen township.

In 1909 Charles L. Rosburg and wife retired from the activities of the life on the farm and moved to Remsen, where they built a beautiful two-story, nine-room house, which is modern in every respect. The house is situated on a tract of four acres of land and is regarded as one of the most substantial homes in the city. In addition to their home place they own another residence property, situated on two acres of land in Remsen. Mr. and Mrs. Rosburg had but little financial support when they began life as young married people, yet they were determined to make a home for them-selves and their family. By hard work and close application to business they have risen to positions of honor and influence in their community. They are active members of the German Lutheran church at Remsen and take much interest in church work. They take an active interest in the social and the religious life of the community and have always been interested in the development of the schools of the township and the county. They have been indulgent parents and have given their children good educations. They are among the most hospitable people in the city and are held in the highest regard. Their lives have been well spent and they have accomplished much, not only for themselves and their family, but for the community in general.

Notes:

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.

Page 734-35 COMPENDIUM OF HISTORY, REMINISCENCE AND BIOGRAPHY

Conrad Rosburg, for many years the leading carpenter and builder at Osmond, Pierce county, Nebraska, is a native of the province of Holstein, Germany. His birth occurred in the village of Harmsdorf, June 8, 1851, and he is a son of Wolf C. and Sophia (Ehrig) Rosburg. The former was born in 1804, and died in 1872, and the latter was born in 1809, and died in 1900, at the age of ninety-one years.
Men of this family have been tenants of the same place since 1639, the date on the frame and concrete house built and occupied by a Rosburg, and handed down to succeeding generations. At times the race has seemed to be about extinguished, but it has been preserved, and none but men of that name have ever lived in the dwelling.
Conrad Rosburg emigrated to America in 1870, sailing from Hamburg, Germany, on the eighth of June on the "Cymbria," which made the passage to New York in eleven days. He came direct to Benton County, Iowa, whither a brother and two uncles had preceded him. He was employed at farm labor until 1875, when, on March 5, of that year, he rented a farm in Crawford county, Iowa, and for five years followed the plow in that locality. Coming to Nebraska, he rented the Thompson farm, seven miles northwest of where Osmond now stands, and for nine years was a Nebraska farmer, and a successful one at that. It was during his occupancy of this farm that a sad incident occurred in the loss of two children in the memorable blizzard of January 12, 1888.
The season of 1889, Mr. Rosburg spent on the road, traveling through Nebraska for the McCormick Harvester Company, and many are the tales he can tell of jokes and pranks played upon landlords and each other by fellow traveling men at hotels where he has sojourned. The work is exacting during the busy season, but they manage to have some fun along with their labor.
In 1890, Mr. Rosburg erected the first building in Osmond, his present residence, the station having been established that year. For nineteen years he was a leading contractor and builder in Osmond, following that vocation until March, 1909, when he rented a farm near town, and again became one of America's producers. Mr. Rosburg is a good farmer, as the tract he took had been considered a rundown farm. His first crop, after thorough deep plowing, made a showing of fifty bushels of corn to the acre - this from land that had not produced a third of that amount for some years before.
Mr. Rosburg was married, December 22, 1875, at Denison, Iowa, to Miss Hanna Fliss, a native of Cedar county, Iowa, and born near Wilton Junction, a daughter of Tobias and Sophia (Fallburg) Fliss, who were married in Germany in May, 1849. They were natives of Hanover and Brunswick, respectively, the father's birth having occurred near Frankfort-On-The-Main, and the mother's, in the village of Seliz. On coming to America, they lived in Chicago for a time, and, in migrating to Iowa, drove through with an ox team to Bloomington, Iowa, now known as Muscatine, which at that time was but a landing for the river steamers. They settled some twelve miles north of Muscatine, in the edge of Cedar county, and lived here until death.
Six children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Rosburg, whose names and histories are given herewith: Emma, died in infancy; Otto and Hattie were lost in the memorable blizzard of January 12, 1888; John has been his father's able assistant, both in carpentry and building, and in his farming enterprises; Ella is the wife of Henry Martin, of Osmond; and Hanna Leneve, the youngest of the six children.
Mr. Rosburg is, in general elections, a democrat, but votes for the best man in local campaigns, regardless of party affiliations.
Many were the hardships endured by Mr. and Mrs. Rosburg in coming to Nebraska, and during their first years in the west. For five miles before reaching Onawa, where they crossed the Missouri river, they were compelled to drive through water in some places three to four feet deep. After crossing to Decatur, Nebraska, Mrs. Rosburg rode one of the horses, driving the cattle, and in the flooded road got into a ditch, in which she and the horse were submerged up to her shoulders. During the first few years, their only fuel at times was twisted hay, supplemented with corn stalks, corn or "buffalo chips." They came to Nebraska late enough to escape the last raid of grasshoppers, but were here during the winter of the deep snows, the winter of 1881 and 1882, when the last remnants of drifts lingered in the canyons and ravines until late in May. There were a few antelope to be seen in the country still, and occasionally a big grey wolf would appear, they having strayed out of the timber along the rivers out onto the plains.
These were hard days - days that tried men's souls and women's fortitude. But the persevering ones, like Mr. Rosburg and his family, who endured to the end, have reaped rich rewards for their privations and strenuous labors. The west has been good to those who persevered.
