JESSE J. LIMBECK.

Jesse J. Limbeck, one of the most prominent and successful of Winneshiek county's native sons, was born in Military township, on the 22d of January, 1883. He is a son of John and Agnes (Hallman) Limbeck, the former of whom engaged in farming all during his active life, dying when the subject of this review was one year and a half old. The mother afterward married her first husband's brother, Edward Limbeck, and to their union were born two children: Agnes and Leslie, who live at home. The family is one of the oldest in this section of Iowa, having been founded here in pioneer times by the paternal grandfather of the subject of this review, who took up six hundred and forty acres of land in Military township.

Limbeck attended public school in Military township and afterward took a course in business college. Upon completing his education he turned his attention to farming, developing a fine tract of land and gaining for himself a position among the township's progressive and substantial agriculturists. He has recently sold his holdings and is contemplating engaging in other business.

On the 22d of January, 1912, Mr. Limbeck was united in marriage to Miss Sadie M. Dinger. He is a republican in his political beliefs and a member of the Methodist church. He is interested in everything that pertains to the community advancement and development and in the section where he was born and where his entire life has been spent holds the respect, esteem and confidence of all who know him.
