C. W. Arch [Charles William Arch]

A well known railroad train man residing at Eagle Grove, Iowa, is a popular and efficient employee. He was born in Randolph, Wisconsin, in 1861, a son of Dr. C. W. Arch, who was a prominent and successful physician and for a time surgeon in the German army in the Franco-Prussian war, and who married Susan Schender. Both parents were Germans, and are now deceased. Mr. Arch was reared and educated in the public schools of Wisconsin, and early engaged in railroad service. He married Sarah Grinolds, and has seven children, namely: Maud Luella, Mabel Gertrude, William Riley, Ida Elmira, Cecil Lamont, Laura May and George Elbert. An account of Mrs. Arch's father, John Grinolds, is given on another page of this work.
