DENNIS H. DEDERICH is one of the best known citizens of Bear Creek Township, where for a number of years he has carried unusually heavy responsibilities as a farmer and land owner and has done his. share toward developing this section of a peculiarly rich and prosperous Wisconsin
community. Mr. Dederich was born in Bear Valley of Richmond County, Wisconsin,
October 9, 1862, a son of A. D. and Mary (Schaefer) Dederich. His father came from Germany in 1848, the year that marked the revolution in that country and the exodus of so many of its best citizens to America. He and his wife were married at Roxbury, Wisconsin. A. D. Dederich was a wagon maker by trade, but he finally turned to farming and acquired 550 acres. Taking this land in a rough and wild state, he cleared most of it and was in very prosperous circumstances when he died October 20, 1898. His widow passed away October 20,
1892. Their children were Margaret, Gertrude, Peter, Adolph, Tony, Dennis, Gerhard, Ramie, Francis and Joseph.
Dennis H. Dederich grew up on his father's farm, was educated in the local schools, and at an early age began farming on his own responsibility. He established himself at his present home in Bear Creek Township
December 1, 1903. Here he owns 200' acres and thirty acres were cleared up by his own hands. He has built a good house and barns and is conducting a model dairy of thirty-one cows, while he has about forty-two head of cattle. Mr. Dederich is independent in politics and a member of the Catholic Church. He married Philomena Weiser, daughter of Frank and Genevieve (Langer) Weiser, of Bear Creek. Mr. and Mrs. Dederich have six children, named Genevieve, Philomena, Joseph, Gertrude, Margaret and Hilda, all of whom have been carefully educated in the public schools.
