  OTTO TECHLIN, a worthy representative of one of Freedom township's old and honored families, who is now operating the old Techlin homestead, was born February 11, 1882, on the farm he now conducts, and is a son of Frederick and Sophia (Rusche) Techlin, natives of Germany. Frederick Techlin was born in Prussia, June 11, 1838, and came to the United States in the fall of 1857, sailing from Hamburg on the sailing vessel "Hobart," and reaching New York after a voyage of more than fourteen weeks. For a little over a year he worked for a farmer in Rockland county, New York, and then came west to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in the vicinity of which city he found employment among the farmers until he was joined by his parents, with whom he came to Center township, Outagamie county. He first acquired forty acres in Center township, but after making a few improvements sold it and bought fifty-seven acres in Freedom township. This land was all in the timber, Mr. Techlin's implements were an axe and a hand-spike and the first house was an old log cabin, but after many years of hard and unremitting toil these gave way to 137 acres of finely cultivated farming land, a full and modern set of farming machinery and an excellent brick house, and here Frederick Techlin spent the remainder of his life, dying in 1905. On September 14, 1865, he was married to Sophia Rusche of Milwaukee, and they had a family of nine children, of whom six are now living. The mother still lives on the old homestead. Otto Techlin received all of his schooling in the district schools of the neighborhood of his home, and he has always been engaged in agricultural pursuits there. He has never left the home place, and at the time of the death of his father he took charge of the property which he is still operating as a general farm. On January 15, 1905, he was married to Hattie Krueger, daughter of Charles Krueger, of Freedom township, and four children have been born to this union: Adaline, Hilda, Harold and Edwin. The family belongs to the German Lutheran Church of Freedom.
