Notes - HENRY FIESTEDT, who is widely and favorably known in Center township as an industrious farmer and citizen, is pleasantly located on his excellent property not far from Appleton, which he has brought to a high state of cultivation. He was born on the farm which he is now operating, March 15, 1872, a son of Joachim Fiestedt, a native of Germany who came to the United States as a young man and settled in New York State. He rented a farm there and remained for about five years, but decided that better opportunites for success presented themselves in the west, and accordingly came to Outagamie county, Wisconsin, purchasing a farm in Center township, upon which the only improvement that had been made was a log cabin and sheds. Here he resided until his retirement from active life in 1900, when he removed to Seymour, having become one of the well-known, prosperous agriculturists of his section. His wife, who bore the maiden name of Richie, and also a native of Germany, died in August, 1910, having been the mother of eight children. Henry Fiestedt has always engaged in agricultural pursuits, and with the exception of one year, when he worked out by the month, his life has been spent on the Center township homestead. This came into his possession at the time of his father's retirement in 1900, and he has since made many improvements, the buildings being in an excellent state of repair, and the whole farm presenting an appearance that speaks well for the industry and good management of its owner. He has worked hard since the time he completed his education in the district schools, and whatever success he has attained has been through his own efforts. In 1900 Mr. Fiestedt was united in marriage with Emma Taege, daughter of Henry Taege, a well-known farmer of Center township. They are members of the German Lutheran Church. http://www.foxvalleymemory.org/Ryans/Textfiles/part15r.html
