HERMAN H. MOENTER
has owned and conducted his homestead on section 33, Troy
Township, Wood County, for the past twenty years, it having
been deeded to him by his father in 1875. In 1888 he
erected very good and substantial farm buildings, and
otherwise increased the value of his place to a great
extent. In addition to this he owns property in
Pemberville, which makes him well off. Politically he
is a Democrat, and has served as Constable of this
township.|
The birth of our subject occurred March 14, 1842, in
Hanover, Germany, and until he was twenty-seven years of age
he continued to make his home with his parents, Ernest H.
and Annie Marie (Hepler) Moenter. They left the
Fatherland in 1846, and settled in this county soon after
they arrived. Our subject received a common-school
education, and possesses a good knowledge of English as well
as of his mother tongue. In early manhood he learned
the carpenter's trade, and followed that calling
industriously and uninterruptedly until his marriage.
June 2, 1870, occurred the marriage of our subject and
Catherine, daughter of John H. and Florentina
(Cook) Wiseman, natives of Prussia. The family
crossed the Atlantic about 1851, and became land-owners and
respected citizens of this county. Mrs. Melcher
was born Sept. 7, 1846, and died Oct. 6, 1894, having been
preceded to the better land by one of her nine children,
John H. W., the eldest, who was born July 11, 1871, and
died Dec. 11, of the same year. The other children are
as follows: Anna Marie, born Jan. 5, 1873;
henry F., July 10, 1874; John W., Mar. 6, 1876;
Florentina C., Dec. 26, 1877; Maria J., June
2, 1882; Mary C., Mar. 23, 1885; Margaret L.,
Nov. 30, 1886; and Frederick C., Mar. 23, 1889.
Anna, the eldest daughter, keeps house for her
father, brothers and sisters. The elder members of the
family are identified with the Lutheran Church. |
