SCHULTZ, HENRY--Farmer and stock-raiser, section 22, P.O. Malcom. Was born in Prussia, March 19, 1832. Was there raised to manhood and educated. In 1857 he came to America, residing for eighteen months in Bureau county, Illinois, after which he came to Poweshiek, where he has since resided. He was married, in the autumn of 1858, to Miss Mary Reaberge, of Prussia, a lady of refined tastes who devotes her time to making home an attraction. They have by this union eight children: Gus, Tena, Chris., Transie, Tilda, John, Otto and Henry. Mr. Schultz owns 400 acres of choice land, all under cultivation, and well stocked. His home is pleasantly situated, and everything about his place has the appearance of being under the supervision of a careful manager. Mr. Schultz served two and a half years in the Prussian army previous to coming to America. He is a member of the I.O.O.F., and is numbered among the substantial agriculturists of the county.
