  FRANK JEPSON, who owns and operates an excellent farm of 100 acres located in section 31, Deer Creek township, is a native of Outagamie county, having been born December 29, 1861, the second of a family of four children. At the age of eighteen years he was employed as water boy of a construction gang on what is now the Chicago & Northwestern Railway, and for thirteen years continued in railroad construction work, then purchasing the place where he now lives, where he has resided ever since. He has a finely improved tract, ninety acres being under cultivation, and has three modern barns, the first, 36x56 feet built in 1893; the second, 36x58 feet, in 1895, and the third, 20x60 feet, built in 1908. He built a large and comfortable frame dwelling house in 1892, and the whole farm bears evidence of excellent management. He does general farming and stock raising and markets dairy products, hogs and cattle, as well as sugar beets. He handles Short Horn cattle, milks about ten cows, and raises Poland-China hogs. In 1883 Mr. Jepson married Miss Edna Pelton, of Fond du Lac, who died in January, 1889, leaving three daughters. The eldest, Clara A., married Casper Daggett, and is now living in Seymour; Bessie H. married Charles McLeod, and is now living in Shawano and has two children; and the youngest, Vesta P., married Ernest Timmreck and is now living in Maple Creek township and has one child. In October, 1890, Mr. Jepson was married to Mary Calkins, born January 28, 1868, daughter of Henry and Elizabeth (Hutchison) Calkins, natives of New York State who were married in Outagamie county. Mrs. Calkins died in 1886, while Mr. Calkins, who is seventy-three years old, is still surviving and makes his home at Mattoon. Mr. and Mrs. Jepson have had eight children, of whom the eldest, Iva P., died in infancy, while the others are living at home, namely: Ada M., Evva A., Lester R., Harold H., Leonard F., Isla L. and Calla V. Mr. Jepson is a Republican in his political views and has served three years as township treasurer and as a member of the school board for ten years.
