AMONG THE FARMERS.

John L. Weber.

In my sketches about the well known and prominent farmers of Woolwich township I find by reference to my note book the above name was omitted. A sketch of Woolwich would be incomplete without the name of Mr. Weber, for it is seldom we find a more popular citizen, or successful farmer. He lives in a beautiful home on the Grand river, near St. Jacobs, and owns and works a farm of two hundred acres. He has lived on this farm since his father purchased it in 1860. Mr. Weber was born in the township of Ellis, Perth county, on June 12, 1844, and has followed farming all his life. He was married to Miss Christiana, daughter of Daniel Kesselring, three miles southwest of Waterloo. She was born in Waterloo township, on Feb. 3, 1848. They have eight children, viz: William K, born April 5, 1572; Sarah Ann, January 12, 1874; Amanda, December 15, 1875; Clara, June 15, 1878; Nelson, July 22, 1880; Lizzie, November 11, 1882; Cranston, May 11, 1885; Malinda, November 8, 1887 All are living at home except William K., who is engaged in the hardware business.

Mr. Weber is a staunch Reformer and a devoted member of the Evangelical Association. He has served several terms as public school trustee and was elected a member of the township. council at the last election. As a practical farmer he ranks with the best of them in Woolwich township. Last season he produced 3,097 bushels of grain and eighty loads of hay, including the feeding of a number of fine export cattle. He also keeps several fine thoroughbred Shorthorns Duke of Alma, 24260, a splendid animal, carried off first premium at Berlin and Elmira last year. Seraphina Rose, red in color, calved March. 15, 1896; Red Rose, 26949, calved July 18, 1894; Lady Clare, light roan heifer, all superb animals. I noticed a number of fine thoroughbred Berkshire bogs, among them a row of enormous proportions. Mr. Weber also keeps a flock of fine sheep, his favorite breed being the Shropshire Downs. His horses are also in splendid condition, and in his stable I noticed a span of very handsome light bays that would undoubtedly carry off first premium in their class were they put on exhibition at the fair. He has abundance of feed, and by the looks of his stock it is not used sparingly. The stranger who sojourns beneath his roof will always find a cordial welcome to partake of the abundance of good things of this life.

Notes:

Rev. Ludwig Koch, "was born in Weinsberg, kingdom of Wurtenberg, Germany, July 19th, 1801. In 1819 he emigrated to America and in July of the same year he came to Chambersburg, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Here he was engaged in farming for three years, but not finding everything to his satisfaction he, in company with others, moved to Canada in spring of 1823. After being here for some time he formed an acquaintance with Barbara Reist to whom he was married in October, 1824. Shortly after their marriage they settled on lot No. 34, German Company's Tract, Woolwich Township, where they commenced in the bush. In a few years they had cleared a large part of their extensive forest farm and had erected thereon such buildings as were common in those days. Here they resided over sixty-five years. The farm is now owned by their son David. In July, 1845, Mr. Ludwig Koch was ordained to the ministry of the Mennonite denomination. His field of labor was Martins, Conestogo, and Elmira. He was sincere in his calling,and always directed the sinner to the cross where Christ suffered for him; and for the children of God he had words of consolation by reminding them of the Lord's words, "I am with you always", and "whatsoever ye shall ask in my name that I will I do". His kindness of heart and simplicity of manners endeared him to all classes who were acquainted with him. He died in September, 1889, and his wife who was born November 15th, 1801, died August 19th, 1890. To them was born a family of eight children"

DAVID KOCH.

His farm is near the outskirts of the village and is one of the oldest in the township, being known as the old Musselman farm, Mr. Koch was born. in Woolwich Township, on lot 34, German Company's Tract, in 1840. He comes down from good, old German stock, his father [Ludwig] being born in Weinsberg, Germany, in 1801. The latter came to the New World in 1819, and in 1824, after a matrimonial alliance with Barbara, daughter of John and Susannah Reist, commenced house- keeping in the wilds of Woolwich, on lot No. 34. Here the parent stem flourished, and for a period of some sixty odd years they diligently labored toward the advancement of civilization, and reared a family of eight children. The father was ordained as a minister of the Mennonite faith in 1845, and until his death in 1889, he was a faithful expounder of the doctrines of that denomination. He had reached the ripe age of eighty-eight years-full of honors when the last summons came. His wife, who was born in 1801, followed him to await the resurrection, at the remarkably advanced age of ninety years.
