  Biography	Abt 1911
  WILLARD G. MANSFIELD, cultivating eighty acres of fine farming land in Deer Creek township, Outagamie county, was born in Two Rivers, Wisconsin, August 10, 1854, and is a son of John L. and Mary A. (Rogers) Mansfield, natives of Canada and Wisconsin, respectively, who were married in Wisconsin. John L. Mansfield enlisted in Company H. Fourteenth Wisconsin Volunteers, in 1861, but before his company left for the front he was suddenly taken sick with measles, was removed to his home, and there died six days later, in Sheboygan county, Wisconsin. His widow died in 1882. Willard G. Mansfield was the eldest of a family of four children, and he remained on the home farm with his mother until twenty-three years of age, at which time he commenced farming on his own account on sixty acres of land situated near Green Bush, but after two years sold out and came to Outagamie county, buying new property which he has cultivated ever since. At that time there were about two acres cleared on which were a small log house and stable, and he owned a cow and a team of old horses, a wagon, plow, drag and cradle. With this crude equipment he began to clear his property, but as time went on and he began to receive returns for his labors, he bought modern machinery to assist him in his work, and he now has sixty-five acres under cultivation. In 1892 he built his modern frame house, 18x26 feet one way, 16x24 feet the other, with a kitchen 14x26 feet, containing fourteen rooms, and in 1904 he erected a barn 40x80 feet, in addition to having outbuildings for the shelter of his stock, grain, poultry and machinery. He feeds all of his hay and grain, but markets dairy products, hogs and cattle, milks an average of ten cows throughout the year and raises Poland-China hogs. He has been breeding French Coach horses, but now breeds to Percherons and Clydes. In 1877 Mr. Mansfield was married to Malissa Stewart, who was born in 1861 and died in January, 1896, daughter of Rev. William and Martha Stewart, natives of New York who came to Wisconsin in the early days and now live in Maple Creek township. Mr. Mansfield had six children by his first marriage: John L., who is married and living in Green Bush, Sheboygan county, has one child; Frank D., married and living in the village of Welcome, has one child; Harry, married and living in Deer Creek; Thomas and Edith, who are single and living at home; and Minnie, who lives with her aunt at Green Bush. In July, 1898, Mr. Mansfield was married to Elizabeth Hehman, born March 25, 1872, daughter of Garrett and Margaret (Ruckdashel) Hehman, natives of Holland and Germany respectively, who were married in Maple Creek township, where Mr. Hehman died in 1905, and where his widow still resides. Three children have been born to this union: Carrie, who died aged three years; Willard G. and Lawrence H. Mr. Mansfield is a member of the Equitable Fraternal Union. He is a Republican in political matters and has served two terms on the board of supervisors and fifteen years as clerk of the school board. With his family he attends the Christian Church.
