  SAMUEL G. RUPPLE, a well known citizen and prosperous business man of Medina, Wisconsin, where he is the proprietor of a general mercantile establishment, is a native of Outagamie county, and was born August 20, 1863, a son of John and Elizabeth (Baker) Rupple, natives of Germany. Mr. Rupple's parents were married in Canada and came to the United States about 1855, settling in Dale township, where they purchased forty acres of raw land and engaged in farming. Mr. Rupple died in Dale in 1896, aged sixty-five years, and Mrs. Rupple passed away in August, 1890, when fifty-nine years old. When Mr. Rupple first came to his property he had nothing in the world to clear his land with but an axe, but the axe was backed by a pair of strong and willing hands and a sturdy heart, and at the time of his death Mr. Rupple had an excellent farm of seventy-three acres, all in a high state of cultivation. Both are buried in the Medina Cemetery. Mr. Rupple enlisted in the Union army during the latter years of the Civil War, was a member of the Grand Army of the Republic and was buried with military honors. Samuel G. Rupple was the seventh born of a family of ten children, and at the age of seventeen years began working at the carpenter trade, continuing thereat for ten years. He then purchased 120 acres of land in Dale township, on which he engaged in farming for sixteen years, and in February, 1907, sold out and engaged in the mercantile business, which he has since carried on. In April, 1899, Mr. Rupple was married to Miss Elizabeth Earle, who was born January 2, 1867, the eldest of the four children born to Allen and Lucinda (Mitchell) Earle, natives of New York State, who came to Wisconsin in 1870 and settled in Outagamie county. Mr. Earle died in 1904, and his widow still survives and makes her home with Mr. and Mrs. Rupple. Three children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Rupple: Ethel, Earl and Jennie.

In politics he is a republican, and he has served three terms on the township board and sixteen years on the school board, being treasurer all of the time while a member of the latter.
