  Biography	1911
  History of Outagamie County, Wisconsin Page 0615
  FRANK PUTH, one of the best known live stock raisers in Grand Chute township, who is also engaged in farming, is the owner of a fine tract of 100 acres, and for a long period has been prominently identified with the agricultural interests of Outagamie county. He was born in the Third Ward, New London, Waupaca county, Wisconsin, April 2, 1859, a son of Nicholas and Eva (Mettlach) Puth, the former born about 1825 in Cobelantz, Prussia, Germany, and the latter July 7, 1835, in Treier, Prussia. Nicholas Puth was in young manhood engaged as a boatman on the Rhine until he came to America at the age of nineteen years. For the six years following he was a sailor on the Great Lakes, and later spent several seasons in rafting on the Wisconsin River, after which he located in New London. He worked for about three years at the boom at Hales Mill, on Wolf River, at the end of which time he exchanged his property for eighty acres of farming land in Dale township, which he continued to operate until 1909, and since that time he has been living at the home of his eldest daughter, in Ashland. In February, 1865, he enlisted in a company of Wisconsin Volunteers, under Captain Youngs, and served until the close of the war. Mrs. Puth died January 9, 1909. They were the parents of seven children, as follows: Frank; John P., a farmer of Adrian, North Dakota; Katharine, widow of Joseph St. Lawrent, of Ashland; Johanah, wife of Michael Anderson, a farmer of Adrian, North Dakota; Lucy, wife of Jasper Jourdan, of Adrian, North Dakota; Nicholas, who resides in the West; and Mary, wife of Warner Truesdell, a grain and lumber dealer of Wright, Minnesota. Frank Puth attended school in Dale township, and made his home with his parents until he was twenty-five years of age, although during this time he spent some years in the woods and with threshing machine outfits. He then went West, where he operated a well-drilling machine in Michigan, Minnesota and the Dakotas, and after his return to this county worked for one year for D. Hameil & Company. He was married at this time, and rented a farm near Hortonville for three years, which he later left to buy a farm in Hortonia. On selling this farm three years later, he rented a property in Greenville township, but after five years disposed of this farm and bought eighty acres of his present farm in Grand Chute township, to which he has since added twenty acres. He devotes a great deal of his time to dairy farming, but his principal interest lies in stock raising, he making a specialty of breeding registered Holstein cattle and Duroc-Jersey hogs. He is a member of the Holstein Friesian Association of America, the National Duroc Breeders' Association, the Winnebago Holstein Breeders' Association and the Wisconsin Live Stock Breeders' Association, and is a director in the Appleton Fair and Driving Park Association. He is a member of St. Mary's Catholic Church, and belongs to Branch No. 128 of the Catholic Knights. In political matters he is a Democrat with independent tendencies. On May 26, 1887, Mr. Puth was married to Caroline Trettien, who was born in Ellington township, Outagamie county, January 24, 1865, daughter of Frederick and Caroline (Slueter) Trettien natives of Prussia. Mrs. Puth's father was born October 19, 1821 and her mother March 15, 1831, and came to Wisconsin in 1858, having spent five years in New York State, Mr. Trettien having burned coal on a five-acre tract twenty miles from Buffalo. On locating in Wisconsin, Mr. Trettien bought eighty acres of farming land in Ellington township, where he resided until 1889, and then retired from active life and moved to Appleton, where he died one year later. His widow passed away in 1903. Mr. Trettien served during the Civil War from September, 1864, until January, 1865, under Captain Marston, of Appleton, and received his honorable discharge on account of disability. Eight children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Trettien, namely: Charles T., a marketmaster of St. Paul; Albertina, wife of Fred Arnold, of Freedom township; Anna, wife of Henry Rath, a photographer of Appleton; Frank, residing on the homestead in Ellington township; Mrs. Puth; August, a professor in Vermilion College, South Dakota; Amelia, wife of Edward McCanless, a merchant of Antigo; and Mata, wife of George Bemis, tie and timber inspector for a railroad company at Antigo. Mr. and Mrs. Puth have had the following children: George, born April 7, 1888; Leonard, born May 26, 1890; Reuben, born December 4, 1892; Eva, born May 17, 1895; Ursula, born April 27, 1898; Irene, born December 26, 1900; Mabel, born February 6, 1903; Gertrude, born July 4, 1905; and Clement, born August 1, 1909. All of the children are living at home except Leonard, who is at present in New Mexico.
