HI). VAN SEGGERN was born October 9, 1849, in Oldenburg, Germany, son of Henry F. and Meta (Schmidt) Van Seggern, who had four children, as follows: H. D. , Dedrick (who died when three 3'ears old), and two that died in infancy. The father was a sailor and carpenter, and was employed as such for fifteen years, after which he worked for a time in the shipyards. In 1859 the family came to America, sailing from Bremen, and landing, after a voyage of thirteen days, in New York, where they sojourned three days, and then continued their journey west. They traveled to Milwaukee, Wis., and thence by boat to Manitowoc, where they hired an ox-team to take them to their destination in New Denmark township. Brown county; but the team collapsed near where Mr. Fagan now lives, and they were obliged to finish the journey as best they could. In New Denmark township the father purchased a tract of 160 acres, only three acres of which were cleared, and the family took up their residence in a log hut, which stood on the place, continuing to live in same eight years, when it was replaced by a more modern dwelling. About two years after their arrival Mr. Van Seggern disposed of eighty acres of his land. The father spent the remainder of his life clearing and improving the land he had bought; later purchased some more land, and at the time of his death was the owner of a fine farm of 160 acres, now the home of our subject. He passed away at the age of seventy-eight, fifteen years after the death of his wife. Our subject, being the only son, had to commence work very early in life, helping his father in the labor of clearing and cultivating the pioneer farm, remaining at home except for three winters when he worked in the woods. In his youth the country around his home was sparsely settled and totally unimproved, and he has experienced all the inconveniences incident to backwoods life in those early days. Although no road had yet been cut through to Green Bay, he would walk there and back, carrying butter and eggs to market, and bringing home provisions. On account of the meager educational facilities of tha time, he received only eleven months' schooling; but he has made the best of such opportunities as he had, and has acquired a practical education by his own efforts. He assisted his parents faithfully in the laborious task of converting the forest into a fertile, productive farm, and he is now enjoying the fruits of those early days of hardship and incessant toil. On May 13, 1879, he was united in marriage with Miss Martha F. Daggart, a nati\e of Two Rivers, Wis., daughter of Charles B. and Naomi(Knibbs) Daggart, who were of Scotch and English descent, respectively. Mr. Daggart's first wife died in Two Rivers, leaving two children, Thomas and Mary, and he subsequently returned to New York State where he married Naomi Knibbs, who became the mother of five children, viz.: Amanda E., Andrew, Martha F. , Evaline Ann, and one that died in infancy. Mr. Daggart, who followed merchandising, served as postmaster at Two Rivers, and also for one year as member of the Assembly. After their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Van Seggern took up their residence on the old homestead, which Mr. Van Seggern inherited, and have ever since remained here, prosperously engaged in general farming. To their union have been born eight children, their names and dates of birth being as follows: Matie N., May 22, 1880; Amanda E. , December 23, 1881 ; Charles H., November 3, 1883 ; Fred J., May 13, 1885 ; Walter M., March 6, 1888; Irma C, July 10, 1889; Cora A. A., February i, 1892 ; Edna H., November 23, 1894. In religious faith Mr. and Mrs. Van Seggern are members of the Lutheran Church, in which he serves as trustee and secretary. In his political preferences he is a Republican, taking considerable interest in the workings of his party, and his fellow citizens have honored him with election to various local positions of trust ; he served faithfully as supervisor three years, from 1880 to 1883; also school director, and was recently elected to the important position of chairman of his township. For the jiast six years he has been treasurer of the Farmers' Insurance Company. As a prominent, prosperous farmer, a public-spirited, representative citizen, and a progressive, self-made man, Mr. Van Seggern occupies an envial)lt,- p()sitif)n among his fellow citizens in New Denmark township [S16] NLA Oldenburg, Bestand 76,6, AIV d 9, Bestand 76,6, AIV d 9.
