Biography:
CHARLES KUHN. The farming element is very strong in Outagamie county, Wisconsin, for this is essentially an agricultural locality, both soil and climate making it a good place for general farming. Charles Kuhn, the owner of forty acres of good property, is one of the well-known farmers of Grand Chute township. He was born in Washington county, Wisconsin, September 14, 1862, a son of Andrew and Minnie (Loum) Kuhn, natives of Germany, where the father was born in 1821 and the mother in 1824. Andrew Kuhn came to the United States in 1841, and for some time worked in New York City at his trade of tailor, then removing to Washington county, where he followed the same trade for a short time. Going to Ozaukee county, he purchased a farm there, but eventually came to Outagamie county and purchased a property in Center township, which he conducted until his retirement, when he located in Appleton. He served three years during the Civil War as a member of the Thirty-fifth Regiment, Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry, and his death occured in the Soldiers' Home at Milwaukee, in 1902, his wife having passed away in 1899. Charles Kuhn was his parents' only child, and he secured his education in the schools of Center township, remaining on the home farm until his marriage, when he started working at the carpenter trade. After following this for a time in Appleton, he joined the City Fire Department, of which he was a member for fifteen years, and at the end of this time bought the farm on which he now resides, a forty-acre tract on which he carries on general farming. He is a member of St John's Lutheran Church, and in politics is independent. On September 25, 1883, Mr. Kuhn was married (first) to Miss Anna Schumaker, born in Germany, May 1, 1863, daughter of John and Louise (Schroder) Schumaker, natives of Germany, and later residents of Appleton. Mrs. Kuhn died in April, 1901, having been the mother of eight children, as follows: Minnie, born April 5, 1885, the wife of Frank Faville, of Milwaukee; Ferdinand William, born February 18, 1887; Rosie, born March 12, 1889; Pauline, born May 20, 1891; Elmer, born March 16, 1895; Ella, born April 28, 1897, who died April 11, 1911; Lizzie, born April 11, 1899; and Emil, who died in infancy. On December 4, 1901, Mr. Kuhn was married (second) to Mollie Brucks, who was born in Prussia, September 17, 1883, daughter of William and Augusta (Zeymer) Brucks, who came to this country about 1871 and settled in Center township, where they resided for many years and then moved to the village of Black Creek. After a short residence there, they moved to a small farm in Black Creek township, where Mrs. Brucks died, and Mr. Brucks then went to Cicero with his daughter, and there he followed his trade of blacksmith up to the time of his death.
