DateLocationDescription
Andrew Olbert, who is engaged in general farming in section 28, Albany township, Pepin county, was born in this township, Oct. 13, 1876, son of Michael and Maria (Walmer) Olbert. The father who was born in Baden, Germany, in 1828, on coming to the United States, located first in Pittsburgh, Penn. Thence he went to Milwaukee, from which place he came to Pepin county, taking a farm in Albany township. He served nine months in the civil war, was injured, returned home and resumed farming. Five years later, he bought the homestead of his brother, Jacob, in section 28, Albany township, the brother having died, and on it he spent the rest of his life, dying in 1911. He had first married Anna Kassel of Milwaukee,and after her death was united in marriage with Mary Walmer, who is now dead. Andrew Olbert, who was the first child of his father's second marriage, in his boyhood attended district school in Albany township, his time outside of school hours outside of school hours being spent for the most part in assisting his father on the home farm, which was his regular occupation subsequently until he reached the age of 21 years. He then spent eight months in North Dakota and after his return resumed work on the home farm, occasionally working for others until his marriage in 1903. After the latter event he operated rented land in Lima township for six years, afterwards moving onto his brother's farm in Albany, where he spent five years. Then for a year and a half he was in the employ of the Eau Claire Packing Company, was engaged in threshing during the next fall, and at the end of that time came to his present location - a farm of 80 acres in section 28, Albany township - which belonged to his father-in-law, and which he is renting. Here he is giving his attention to general farming, raising both crops and stock, and is steadily advancing in prosperity. He has served on the school board of his district for a number of years and in politics is a Republican, with independent proclivities. The marriage of Mr. Olbert, in 1903, as previously mentioned, united him with Miss Sophia Dreysse, who was born in Albany, daughter of Henry and Barbara (Fletch) Dreysse. He and his wife have six children: Homer, Irene, Mildred, Olive, Evelyn and Russell.
