Biography:
CONRAD GIEBEL, a prosperous farmer owning eighty acres of fertile land in section 30, Dale township, is one of the representative agriculturists of Outagamie county. He was born in Germany, October 1, 1845, being a son of Conrad and Elizabeth (Hengle) Giebel, who came to America in 1857, settling in Dale township, this county. Here the father invested in twenty-five acres of land just north of the village of Dale. At that time the land was covered with timber, but the sturdy German pioneer cut off the trees, built a log house and he and his sons placed the property under cultivation. This continued to be his home for a quarter of a century, when he sold it to one of his sons, he and his wife residing there still. However, in 1881, this son died, and for the following five years, the aged parents lived with their other children. In that year, the father died, in his eightieth year. The mother then went to live with Conrad Giebel, dying in his home in 1897, aged eighty-two years. Both parents were interred in Dale cemetery. Conrad Giebel, Jr., was the fourth in a family of seven children. When he was twenty-six years old, he bought eighty acres in Bear Creek township, Waupaca county, and spent seven years there, but then sold the property, returning to the homestead. After a year he left to buy his present farm upon which he has lived ever since. Forty acres of his farm are under cultivation, and enclosed with barbed wire and rail fences. He carries on general farming, raising dairy products, hogs, cattle, feeding his hay and grain to his stock, which he markets. In 1871, Mr. Giebel was married to Miss Phiana Zehren, born February 6, 1850, third child of five children born to her parents, John and Mary Zehren, natives of Pennsylvania, who came to Wisconsin in 1854, locating in Outagamie county. The father died in Dale township, in October, 1900, aged eighty-two years, but his widow survives, being now in her ninetieth year. There is no issue of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Giebel. Giebel is a Democrat, and he and his wife belong to the Lutheran Church of Dale, towards which they contribute generously. Giebel is another example of what can be accomaplished by the live, progressive farmers of the present day, who employ modern methods in their work, and raise only the best quality of products.
