Peter T. Fox purchased his present home on sections 4 and 5 of Lincoln township, in 1877. He married Theresa Weber, a native of Fond du Lac, Wis., in 1878, and moved to his land, which he began at once to improve, until now he has a desirable farm, with all necessary buildings. They are the parents of three children—Peter J., Nora and Frank. He is the son of Peter and Appolonia Fox, natives of Prussia, who emigrated to America in 1843, settling in Fond du Lac Co., Wis., their only capital being good health and willing hands, but their energy and industry has secured for them a fine competence, and they still live to enjoy it.
