ANDREW STEWART.
Shelby county, Iowa, is proud of the few citizens of Irish ancestry who have made this county their permanent home. The worthy sons of the Emerald Isle have become useful and prosperous citizens because of their thrifty habits and their econmical mode of life. Among the citizens of Irish birth who have honored this county with their residence there is no one who is more deserving of mention in this volume than Andrew Stewart, a prosper- ous farmer and stockman of Lincoln township. With clearly defined pur- pose and consecutive effort in the affairs of life he has attained a due measure of success and in so doing has not forgotten the duties which he owes to les fellow citizens in any way. He has borne his full share of the burdens of the civic welfare of his community and has always stood on the side of good government.
Andrew Stewart, son of James and Anna ( Gibson) Stewart, was born in Ireland. July 11, 1871. His father was born in 1811 and his mother in 1833. and lived in their native land many years after their marriage. It was not until the year 1878 that they decided to come to America and when they came here they settled at once in Jackson township in this county. Here James Stewart purchased land and became a prosperous farmer and at the time of his death in 1906 in Harlan, he was one of the substantial men of the county. Mrs. Stewart died in 1907. James Stewart and wife were the parents of thirteen children, nine of whom are living in America, Thomas. John J., Joseph Henry, Samuel R .. Andrew. George E .. Isaiah G., Richard and Sarah. Mrs. McElvain lives in Ireland.
Andrew Stewart was seven years of age when his parents came to the United States and consequently most of his education was received in the schools of Shelby county. Mr. Stewart worked on the home farm until he was twenty-three years of age and then rented land and commenced farming for himself. At the death of his father in 1906 he received eighty acres of
779

his father's estate and a year later purchased two hundred and thirty acres of excellent farming land in Lincoln township. Since acquiring this farm he has ball: a Beautiful home at a cost of five thousand dollars which is one of the most modern in the county. It has every convenience, including elec- tric light and is surrounded by a handsome yard, which adds not a little to the general attractiveness of the home. On his farm he has all of the latest improvements and the best of modern machinery and equipment so that he is enabled to get the maximum results from his soil. He pays considerable attention to the raising of live stock. handling Poland China hogs, Shorthorn cattle and Coach and Percheron horses. He has won many prizes at fairs with his Poland China hogs and has shipped them to different parts of the United States for breeding purposes. He is a member of the Shelby County Fine Live Stock Exchange.
Mr. Stewart was married February 28, 1906. to Hannah Belle Stewart. who was born in Jackson county. lowa, in 1882. He and his wife are earnest members of the Congregationalist church and contribute generously of their means to its support at all times. The Democratic party has claimed the sup- port of Mr. Stewart but his heavy agricultural interests have prevented him from taking a very active part in political affairs. He has acted well his part in life and while primarily interested in his own individual affairs, he has not been unmindful of the interests of his fellow citizens and has contributed to the full extent of his ability for their advancement and that of the public welfare. Personally, he is a man of pleasing address, sociably inclined and enjoys a wide acquaintance and a large circle of warm and loyal friends.

As a young man he served with the medical corps of his country during the Franco-Prussian war in 1870-71 and there gained much valuable experience. He has prac- ticed at various places throughout the state of lowa during the past forty years, and wherever he has been, he has been recognized as a man of ability.

cut and his wife are both deceased. They reared a family of ten children, Elizabeth, Sarah. George. Mitchell. Charles. Silas, Samuel. Corbin, Angela. and one who died in infancy.
Politically, Doctor Teske has been identified with the Democratic party since coming to America. Due to the fact that he has practiced his profes- sion in so many different cities throughout the states, he has never taken an active part in the political life of the communities in which he has lived. However, he is interested in good government and is a hearty supporter of men who stand for the best ideas in good government. He is a member of the Modern Woodmen of America. Doctor Teske is a man of genial dispo- sition and kindly impulses, and has a host of friends throughout Shelby county who admire him for his devotion to his profession and the good which he has accomplished since becoming a resident of the county.
FRANK WENDT.
The sun never shone on a fairer or better land for agricultural purposes than is found in Iowa; the Mississippi valley has truly been called the garden spot of the world and one of the choicest corners of this garden is found in Shelby county, Iowa. Land which was bought for a few dollars an acre when the first settlers came to this county is now worth from one to three hundred dollars an acre. The present farm of Frank Wendt was bought for six dollars an acre and now two hundred dollars an acre would not buy it. Does it pay to farm? Ask the farmer of this county; look over his broad acres ; glance into his well-filled barns and granaries; examine his rating at the local banks. Among the men of this county who have made a distinct success of farming there is no one who is more deserving of mention than Frank Wendt. one of the most substantial farmers of Douglas township.
Frank Wendt, the son of Hans Peter and Anna ( Kortuna ) Wendt, was born March 16, 1858, in Germany. Hans P. Wendt was a foreman on a large farm in Germany but wishing to give his children better opportunities than they were getting in Germany, he decided to come to the United States. The trip to this country was made in 1874 and the family at once located in Clinton county, Iowa, where they remained for three years. In 1877 Hans moved with his family to Shelby county and settled about half way between Walnut and Avoca. He rented land until 1881 and then bought eighty acres in section 1. Douglas township, paying six dollars an acre for the land.
782
SHELBY COUNTY, IOWA.
As he was able he added to his farm, and gradually built up one of the best farms in the county. When he moved to Walnut in 1888 he had a well im- proved farm of one hundred and sixty acre -. He lived in Walnut for the next sixteen years and then moved to Fort Worth, Texas, where he was living at the time of his death in 1909. His wife had died in 1904 while they were on their way to Texas. Hans P. Wendt and wife were the parents of three children. Frank, Mrs. Dora Greeves and Henry.
Frank Wendt received a good common school education and lived at home until he was married. He then rented a farm west of Botna. in Jeffer- son township. on which he lived for three years. He then moved on the old home farm and managed it until the death of his father in 1909. He then bought out the other heirs and has since added three hundred and twenty acres of land. The farm which is known as the "Green Ridge Stock Farm" is one of the most attractively kept farms in the county. The buildings are all of good construction and are always in repair, a fact which adds not a little to the value of the farm.
Mr. Wendt was married May 14. 1885. to Dora Kahl, the daughter of John and Maria ( Schees) Kahl. Mrs. Wendt was born in Germany in 1866 and came to this country with her parents when she was fourteen year- of age. Mr. and Mrs. Wendt are the parents of thirteen children, eleven of whom are living. Maggie. Anna. Dora, John, Henry, Emma, Harry, Herbert. Frank, Helen and Alice. Maggie is the wife of Fred Bargenquast and has five children, Frank, Alfred. Otto and twins, Leona and Viola: Anna is the wife of Henry Bargenquast and has four children. Dorothy. Helen, Alfred and Arnold. Dora is the wife of Christopher Freese and has two children. Andrew and Dora. All the rest of the children are single and still living with their parents. Hans and Peter are the two deceased children, both of them dying in infancy.
Mr. Wendt is a man of perseverance and strength of character and never allows di-couragements to stop him. Several years ago a gypsy for- tune teller told him that "he would die with his boots on" and two incidents in his life have led him to believe that there is much truth in what she said. At one time he was caught in a speed jack and was unfortunate enough to lose half of his left hand; at another time. while out in the pasture with a cow and her calf, the cow got him down on the ground and before he could get up and away, he was severely injured. This same never-die spirit is what has made him successful and. whether he dies with his boots on or not, it is safe to say that he will be in the game of life to the end.
Mr. Wendt and his family are members of the German Lutheran church.
783
SHELBY COUNTY, IOW.A.
Politically, he is a Democrat but has never held any other office than that of school director. a position which he has filled in his township for the past eighteen years. Fraternally, he holds membership in the Modern Woodmen of America. Mr. Wendt is highly esteemed by every one with whom he has come in contact and his friends are as numerous as his acquaintances.
WILLIAM BALDWIN.
One of the enterprising and successful farmers of Shelby county, Iowa, who has succeeded in his chosen vocation through his perseverance and good management is William Baldwin, the proprietor of the "Highland Park Farm" in Grove township. The qualities which have made Mr. Baldwin one of the prominent and successful men of his township and county have also brought him the esteem of his fellow citizens, for his career has been one of well directed energy and honorable methods. He has taken a prominent part in the civic life of his community and is now serving as trustee of his town- ship, a position which he is admirably filling.
William Baldwin, the son of John and . Priscilla ( Mayhen) Baldwin, was born December 22, 1869, in Canada. His parents were also both natives of Canada, his father's birth occurring July 2. 1838, and his mother's in 1848. John Baldwin was reared to manhood in his native land and assisted his father on the home farm until he was married. when he began farming for himself and continued to follow the life of a tiller of the soil until his death May 26. 1912. His widow is still living at Manitoba, Canada.
William Baldwin is one of ten children born to his parents, nine of whom are still living. He was educated in the schools of his native country and after leaving school farmed with his father for three years. He then married and came to Iowa. locating at Dunlap in 1892. After coming to the state he worked for four years as a farm hand and then rented a farm of one hundred acres in Douglas township. Harrison county. He continued to operate a farm in Harrison county for ten years and in 1907 came to Shelby county and bought his present farm of two hundred acres in Grove township. Since acquiring this farm he has placed more than six thousand dollars' worth of improvements upon it and now has one of the most attractive as well as one of the most productive and valuable fans of the township. He has a beautiful home, excellent barns and out buildings and everything about the estate indicates that the owner is a man of taste. He keeps graded live stock
784

and feeds all of his grain to hogs and cattle, having found by experience that the farmer makes the most profit in this way.
Mr. Baldwin was married in March. 1892, to Hattie Lalone, the daugh- ter of Fred and Mary Lalone, and to this union have been born eight chil- dren, Bessie, Myrtle. Pearl. Juliet. Jesse. William, Fred and John. Fred was killed by a horse some years ago and John died when he was two years of age. The remaining children are still living with their parents. Mrs. Bald- win's parents were natives of Canada also, and came to Harrison county. Iowa, in 18ot, settling near Dunlap. Her father died some years ago and her mother is still living in Dunlap. Mr. Lalone and wife were the parents of four children, all of whom are living.
The Republican party has claimed the support of Mr. Baldwin since reach- ing his majority. He has always been interested in everything pertaining to good government and in the success of his party he has been particularly active. Ifis worth as a citizen is indicated by the fact that his party nomi- nated him for the position of trustee of his township, a position to which he was subsequently appointed. Fraternally. Mr. Baldwin is a member of the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons and the Independent Order of Odd Fel- lows, holding his membership in both lodges at Dunlap. Mr. Baldwin is a man whose well-directed efforts have gained for him a position of desirable prominence in the life of his township and county and it is gratifying to know that his energy and enterprise have been crowned by success.
FRANKLIN SLATES.
One of the earliest pioneer settlers of Shelby county, Iowa, is Franklin Slates, who has been a resident of this county since 1866. He was born in Putnam county, Ohio, spent a few years in Martin county, Indiana, and when he was thirteen years of age came with his parents overland from Indiana to Shelby county, Iowa, making the long trip with an ox and horse team. When Mr. Slates arrived in this county, on May 10, 1866, there were very few settlers living within the county and there was no evidence whatever that it would some day be one of the leading agricultural sections of the whole United States. Due to the efforts of such sturdy farmer- as Mr. Slates, this county has emerged from a condition which was, at that time, very unattractive, till it now presents as attractive an appearance a. any county in the state. In this transformation Mr. Slates has borne hi-

full share, and after a period of fifty years, he can look back over the halt century and feel that he has done his part for the general welfare of the county.
Franklin Slates, the son of Samuel and Mary Jane ( Long) Slates, was born in Putnam county, Ohio, March 30. 1853. His parents were both born in Ohio, reared in that state and lived there until 1861. In that year they moved to Indiana and located in Martin county, where Samuel Slates bought eighty acres of land and farmed for nine years. In the spring of 1866 Mr. Slates soll his Martin county, Indiana, farm and in May of that year started on the long overland trip for Jowa. He and his family packed all of their belongings in wagons and, with oxen and horses, started out. When they came to the Mississippi river, it was at a time when its banks were overflowing and they had a serious time in getting across the river. When they came to the Des Moines river they forded it with their teams. After settling in Shelby county, in the spring of 1866, Samuel Slates erected a rude hut, in which the family lived for about a year until such a time as Mr. Slates conld build a more substantial residence. He was a carpenter and followed his trade in Shelby county, while he farmed as well. He pros- pered from the beginning and at one time owned twelve hundred acres of land in the county and was one of its largest stock raisers.
Samuel Slates was three times married. To him and his first wife, Mary Jane Long, there were born four children: Jeremiah, who married Ida Baker : William P., deceased : Franklin, whose history is here given ; and Mary Jane, the wife of John Solmon. The first wife of Samuel Slates died. and he then married Lucinda Harden, and to this second marriage seven children were born: John, deceased: Hannah, the wife of A. D. Ames; Alice, the wife of W. R. Adams: S. B., who married Ruth Thomas; Ed- ward ; and two who died in infancy. He was married a third time to Sarah Jane Thomas. Samuel Slates died January 8. 1902, and is buried at Kirk- ham.
Franklin Slates was six years of age when his parents moved from Putnam county, Ohio, to Martin county, Indiana, and then moved with his parents nine years later to Shelby county, Iowa. The education of Mr. Slates was received in the schools of Indiana, in a log school house with puncheon seats and floor. He remained at home helping his father until he was twenty-eight years of age and then married and started farming for himself by renting land. He rented for seven years and then bought his present farm of one hundred and sixty acres in Douglas township, on which (50)

he has been living for more than thirty years. He has put at least six thousand dollars worth of improvements upon this farm and has so rotated his crops that he has kept it at the maximum point of productivity. He has divided his attention all these years between the raising of grain and live stock in such a way as to secure the maximum results from his labors. He has given particular attention to the raising of Shorthorn cattle.
Mr. Slates was married December 14. 1882, to Fanny Tilton, the daughter of Nelson B. and Eliza Vandalia ( Stroud ) Tilton. Mrs. Slates was born November 15, 1854. in Fayette county, Illinois, and educated in Poweshiek, Polk and Story counties, Iowa.
Nelson B. Tilton, the father of Mrs. Slates, was one of the old, sterling pioneer settlers of Shelby county, a faithful and loyal member of the church of his choice and a man highly respected and esteemed by all who knew him. Some time before his death. June 23, 1910, Mr. Tilton wrote a brief sum- mary of his own life, which is here given as he wrote it :
"I was born in Muskingum county, Ohio, October 21, 1828. In 1840 I moved, with my father. to White county, Indiana, and in 1842 to Fayette county, where I was united in marriage to Judy Ann Yoakum on February 16, 1851. She departed this life, January 20, 1852, leaving one son, William Winfrey, who departed this life at the age of six months. December 2, 1852, in Effingham county, Illinois. I was married to Eliza Vandalia Stroud. We moved to Poweshiek county, Iowa, in 1858, and to Shelby county in 1884. where we have lived ever since. We have had six children born to us. One, John Nelson, died at the age of one year and four months, and is buried in Jasper county. Jowa. Five are now living: Mrs. F. Slates, of Kirkman : C. J. Tilton, of Hurst, Texas: Mrs. Emma Mcln- tosh. of Irwin: James N. Tilton, of Chicago: Mrs. Mary E. Granger, of Kansas City. There are fourteen grandchildren and five great-grandchildren now living. I was baptized in infancy and thank God for Christian parents who consecrated me to God in this holy ordinance in my childhood. 1 pro- fessed religion at the age of sixteen, and united with the Methodist church. which has been my home ever since. In 1892 I experienced the blessing of entire sanctification in Irwin with several others in a revival meeting hell by my pastor, Rev. A. R. Miller. Now that I am near the end, I can say that I have kept the faith, and henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of right- eousness which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day ; and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.' " Mrs. Tilton died March 16, 1912, at Kansas City, Missouri.
Mr. Slates and his wife are members of the Methodist Episcopal church

at Kirkman, and have always been much interested in everything pertaining to its welfare. He was treasurer of his church and is now serving as a men- ber of the board of trustees. Fraternally, he is a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows at Irwin. He has long given his support to the Re- publican party and has served as township trustee for seven years and as a member of the school board of his township for a similar length of time.
An interesting incident is told by Mrs. Slates concerning the Mormons. While she was living with her parents, before her marriage, in Poweshiek county, lowa, the Mormons came to that county on their way to Utah. She remembers distinctly the safe which was hauled from lowa City westward when they changed the capital. It was drawn by twenty yoke of oxen and was guarded by one hundred men.
ANTON KOESTERS.
The population of the United States is the most cosmopolitan of any on the face of the earth. The statue of Liberty which stands in New York har- bor has been the beacon light to the oppressed people of every land, and to our shores have flocked ambitious people from every civilized country on the globe. The magic word liberty has been a talisman which has drawn hither the most enterprising and ambitious men and women and this accounts in a large measure for the wonderful progress which our country has made since its organization. Of all the people who have come to the shores of the United States no worthier, better or more patriotic citizens have become a part and parcel of our commonwealth than have those of German descent. The community which numbers the sons of Germany among its citizens is to be congratulated. for wherever they settle, prosperity is sure to be found. Thousands of acres of land in Shelby county have been made to bloom as the desert rose because of the thrift and industry exercised by these people. Beautiful homes have been erected, flourishing villages have been established, business enterprises have been launched and schools and churches have been built to serve the educational and spiritual wants of the people. Among the many sterling German citizens of Shelby county may be mentioned Anton Koesters, one of the most substantial farmers of Union township.
Anton Koesters was born in Westphalia, Germany, February 17, 1861, and is the son of Joseph and Brigita Koesters. His father was educated in Germany and farmed in his native land until late in life. He then retired and came to America, where he spent his declining years with his children.
788
SHELBY COUNTY, IOWA.
There were eight children born to Joseph Koesters and wife. Casper, Anton. John, Robert. Joseph, Hubert, Richard and Fredericka. Casper is still living in the old country: John married Mary Eberts: Robert married Thresia Schneider : Joseph married Anna Hush: Hubert is living at Freeport, Illinois; Richard is still in Germany: Fredericka is the wife of Theodore Schnuettegen.
Anton Koesters received a good common school education in the district schools of his native country, and after leaving school .ook up the trade of a cabinet maker, which occupation he followed while he was living in Germany and even after coming to America. He came to this country in 1880 and first settled in Little Rock. Arkansas, where he worked at his trade for a short time. From that city he removed to Westphalia, Iowa, and again re- sumed his trade as a carpenter and cabinet maker. In addition to his carpentering and contracting business Mr. Koesters has invested largely in land in this county, buying his first farm in 1891. From year to year he has added to this first farm until he now is the owner of five hundred and sixty acres of the best land in the county. He is not only one of the best carpenters and contractors in the county, but as a farmer he stands second to none. He keeps in close touch with the management of his large estate and keeps it well equipped with the latest improved machinery. He realizes a very handsome return annually from the sale of grain and live stock.
Mr. Koesters was married March 4, 1886. to Mary Sasse, the daughter of Charles and Elizabeth Sasse. and to this union twelve children have been born: Joseph, Annie ( deceased ). Charles, John. Henry, Aloyious. Anton, Frederick, Annie. Lena. Cecelia and Mary. Joseph married Annie Brecker and has three daughters. Elizabeth, Loretta and Geralda. The rest of the children are still living with their parents.
Mrs. Koesters' parents were also natives of Germany. coming to this country in 1873, and were among the first settlers in Westphalia, Iowa. Her father died shortly after the family came to America from burns received on account of the explosion of a lamp. Mrs. Koester's mother is still living in Westphalia. Five children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Sasse, Bertha, Mary, Anton. Annie and Elizabeth, all of whom are still living except Annie.
The Democratic party has long claimed the support of Mr. Koesters, and while interested in good government and the civic welfare of his community, yet he has never been an aspirant for any public office or an active participant in political matters. The only office which he has ever held was that of school board director and in this capacity he gave his fellow citizens faithful and efficient service. The family are all devout members of the Catholic church in whose welfare they have always taken a deep and abiding interest.
