Gehrt Engelbrecht, on of the well-known and successful famers in Meadowntownship, Plymouth county, was born in Holstein, Germany on December 25, 1851, the son of Gehrt and Katie (Severin) Engelbrecht. The parents were also natives of that country and there received their education in the public schools, and after their marriage established themselves on a farm where they resided to the end of their lives, dying in their native land some years ago. They were active members of the German Lutheran church and took much interest in all church work, and were prominent in the local society in the community in which they lived and where they were held in the highest regard and esteem by all. They were the parents of ten children as follow: Jacob, Gehrt, Anna, Jacob, John, Frank, Herman, Henry and two who died in infancy. Of the children, three came to America, Henry, Frank and Gehrt. Henry is a successful farmer in Meadow township and Frank is a resident of Mitchell, South Dakota.
Gehrt Engelbrecht was educated in the public schools of his native country and there grew to manhood, and remained a resident of that country until he was twenty-eight years of age. In 1880 he came to America. On his arrival in the United States he proceeded to Holstein, Wisconsin, where he remained for one year and was engaged as a farm hand. He then located in Benton county, Iowa, where he remained for five years and then moved to Sioux county, where he lived for twelve years.
In 1891 Gehrt Engelbrecht was united in marriage to Amanda Wickhorst, a native of Holstein, Germany, and who came to America, the year that she was married. To this union ten children have been born as follow: William, Katie, John, Annie, Charles, Herman, Emil, Alfred, Alma and Vera. William married Anna Grapke and is a successful farmer and stockman of Sioux county, Iowa; Katie is the wife of Henry Rann, a successful and well-to-do farmer of Meadow township, Plymouth county; John is working on a farm in Sioux county; Annie is the wife of George Kantz, a well-known resident of Canostota, South Dakota,and the other children are at home with the parents.
Soon after their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Engelbrecht established their home in Sioux county and were there engaged in general farming for ten years. They then came to Plymouth county, where they purchased one hundred and sixty acres of land in section 15, Meadow township. The tract was at that time partially improved and developed, but since that time the present improvements have for the most part been placed by Mr. Engelbrecht, and today he has one of the nicely improved places in the township. The farm has been increased and he is now the owner of three hundred and twenty acres of splendid land, all under a high state of cultivation. He is engaged in general farming and stock raising, in which he has been most successful. He raises many fine Hereford and Shorthorn cattle, Chester White hogs and draft horses, and is recognized as one of the successful stockmen of the county. He cultivates about one hundred and ten acres of corn and ninety acres of small grain each year, the balance of his farm being in pasture and hay.
