  CHRIST JULIUS, who has been operating a farm in Greenville township for more than thirty-five years, is one of the well-known residents of this section, and was born in Mecklenburg- Schwerin, Germany, March 5, 1849, a son of Fred and Louisa (Dahoe) Julius, natives of the Fatherland, from whence they came in 1854 and located in Greenville township. Fred Julius purchased a farm of eighty acres for $200, and while engaged in clearing and improving this land, he also worked for others to get money on which to live. After about twenty years he sold this land and bought a tract of 120 acres in the southern part of Greenville township, where he resided until his death, about 1890 or 1891, his widow surviving him several years. They were the parents of the following children: Fred, a retired citizen of Oshkosh, Wisconsin; John, a Greenville township farmer; Christ; Charles, also engaged in farming in this township; Louisa, the wife of John Staffeld, a resident of Neenah; William, who, died in Vancouver; and Henry, employed in a factory in Neenah. Fred Julius served in the regular army in his native country. Christ Julius received a limited training in the schools of Greenville township, but most of his education was secured in the school of hard work, for as soon as he was able to reach the plow handles he started in to do his share of the hard work on the farm. He remained on the old homestead, turning his wages over to his father until he was twenty-five years old, and then purchased a farm in Ellington township, which he eventually traded for an eighty-acre tract in Cicero township. This he in turn traded for fifty acres of his present land, and at that time was married, April 6, 1874, to Mary Topp, who was born in New York State, February 25, 1854, daughter of John and Sophia (Ellis) Topp, natives of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, Germany, the father born March 17, 1820, and the mother March 8,1818. They came to the United States in 1857, and for six years resided in New York, after which they came to Clayton township, Outagamie county. They spent six years on that property and then bought a small farm in Greenville township, on which the family made its home for eighteen years, after which they sold out and went to live with Mr. Julius, at whose home both died in 1896. They had three children: John, who is deceased; Mary; and an infant, deceased. Mr. Topp was also a member of the regular army in Germany. Mr. Julius now has an excellent property of ninety acres, well equipped with modern buildings and up-to-date machinery. He has been a member of the Grange since boyhood, is also connected with the Equitable Fraternal Union, and is a Lutheran and an independent Democrat. He and Mrs. Julius have had seven children, as follows: William, born March 12, 1878, who died in May, 1881; Anna, born January 25, 1881; Lucinda, born May 8, 1884; Augusta, born January 3, 1886; Amanda, born January 15, 1889; Frank, born March 19, 1891; and Jennie, born June 15, 1894.
