HENRY WILDE 1879-1963
Henry Wilde was born April 23, 1879 in Rock Township, Mitchell County, Iowa, the son of Ferd (Johann Friedrick Ferdinand) and Augusta (Tesch) Wilde.
On November 8, 1908 he married Elizabeth Neuman at Emmanuel Lutheran Church in Grafton, Iowa. Elizabeth was born on January 5, 1889 in Worth County, Iowa, the daughter of August and Mary (Walk) Neuman.
The Wilde's farmed until 1918 on a farm two miles east of Grafton, where Arnold, Roy, Alice, Alma, and Wilma were born. Then they moved to the old Wilde homestead where they lived until their retirement in 1949, when they moved to their home in St. Ansgar, Iowa.
Henry began farming in 1908 and was also a part-time carpenter, helping his father build houses in the area where they lived.
Henry died at the age of 84, on August 30, 1963, and Elizabeth died at the age of 75 on March 2, 1964. Henry, in his retirement years, liked to visit the family farm where his son Elmer now resided, and enjoyed fishing.
They are buried at St. John's Lutheran Cemetery in Rock Township, Mitchell County, Iowa, near the church they attended all their married life.
