Notizen zu dieser Person
LOUIS GEORGE BLEICK, one of the most energetic and progressive business men and farmers of Greenville township, Outagamie county, whose excellent farm of 180 acres is one of the best properties in this part of the county, was born on this farm, January 19, 1884, and is a son of Louis and Josephine (Schroth) Bleick, the former born on this farm, November 19, 1859, a son of Louis Bleick, a native of Germany who secured this property from the United States government and resided here until his death in 1898. His wife survived him until 1902. Louis Bleick, the father of Louis G., remained on this farm until his retirement in April, 1911, when he went to Appleton to reside. He is one of the very well known farmers of Greenville township, where he has served as township treasurer and in other offices. He married Josephine Schroth, who was born at Stephensville, Wisconsin, May 2, 1861, and they have had two sons: Elmer H., who resides with his parents in Appleton engaged in the automobile business; and Louis George. The latter received a district school education in Greenville township, after which he took two terms at Lawrence University, Appleton. From 1903 until 1909 he was engaged in the music business, also conducting a brass band and orchestra, and during the summer of 1910 engaged in the automobile business with his brother. Finding, however, that farming agreed better with his health, when his father retired from active life in 1911, he took over the management of the home farm of 180 acres, which he has conducted to the present time. He uses an automobile, finding it very useful in going about the farm and in his frequent visits to adjoining cities, and he does not hesitate in advocating its use to his farmer friends. He is very progressive in his ideas, and nothing but the most up-to-date machinery, utensils and accessories are used on his farm. Like the other members of this family, Mr. Bleick is a faithful member of the Lutheran Church. He is independent in political matters, and has not as yet found time to engage actively in affairs of a public nature. Mr. Bleick is unmarried.
